flite test has contracted wth Adams to build a flat 4.5mm water resistant paper covered foam board, you can do a search for flite test foam board. It's pretty stiff unless it gets bent enough to kink, like most foam boards. I've used a carbon spar like my other designs to try to preven that under flight loads.

Often they offer free shipping over $99. Sheets are 20" by 30" It is possible to use a monokote trim iron to carefully roll the edges which makes them hard and the paper stays attached, it sort of melts the styrene and it becomes more dense...it's an advanced technique. For the kit I suggest sanding slightly round then coating with the foam tac/foam cure cement to seal it.
