This is a quick design I came up with for wingtip armor for the HobbyZone Aeroscout. As a new, inexperienced pilot, I kept scuffing the wingtips of my AeroScout during landings. They aren't a perfect fit and won't keep the aircraft looking new forever, but they're a bit more durable than the EPO foam. They should help survive a few more sloppy landings as you're learning to fly and (more importantly) land! These have been flight tested and haven't noticeably impacted any of the AeroScout's flight characteristics.

Recommend printing in the original orientation with a brim and organic style supports. I printed mine from ABS, but I'm sure other materials will work as well. As far as attaching to the AeroScout, I used E6000 adhesive, but hot glue should work just as well.
