It is with the wings, though. I think it runs in through the aileron push
rod tunnel, trouble is it doesn't all run out again. Needs a bit more
thought here. Talk amongst yourselves while we engage brains. If we can
find one. Question? Does exposed styrofoam absorb water? Bear in mind that
there is no such thing as a completely closed cell foam. Even wetsuits are
slighly porous, as we found when we tried to make dry suits with foam
neoprene.
