Ok so I was a little bored today and started looking around the web and found a hobby shop in Colorado that is helping out the local middle and high school in Loveland Colorado. The are the outlet for the MESArc Foam Fighters MF-1 Wolverine V2 Build Kit. This is a foam R/C airplane that was designed by the kids in the middle school and high school, This is a little excerpt from their website:
