I like balsa because it's light and easy to cut/glue, but it's so fragile, too. The model I was making is supposed to be flown--you cover the body with paper and attach a rubber-band-powered propeller--but I could barely handle the thing without feeling like I could snap it, let alone launch it through the air!
