Here's one source, I think.
I know little about r/c and less about Depron.
Hope this helps.

edit: looks like most of the plans call for 6mm.

There are ENDLESS sources for foamy plans. RCGroups is a great resource.

I am going to get back into foam scratch building when I have more time on my hands. Probably not until after xmas though.

what kind of plane are you looking for? jet, delta wing, biplane, etc.? look on ebay for "foam kits" to get an idea of what is out there. i have some plans. some plans are real cheap on ebay. sheet foam is fairly cheap, ($12 for 2 x 4foot sheet 3mm or $8 for 2 sheets 2 x 2foot 1.5mm). here are a few ideas.

cool foamy

foam jet

f16-jet

i've built both a P-51 profile and a delta wing foam plane.

edited 10-10-12 10p.m. PST - added pic of a foam plane.

also downloaded plans for 2 sizes of this built-up fuselage/wing plane.

this plane is available in kit on ebay relatively cheap. also easy to make on your own.

i think i found it under "foam plane". it can be a trainer with di-hedral or a stunt plane with straight wing.
were you planning on electric or gas?

Mitch: here is the link the plane i posted earlier.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/3-in-1-Trainer-Airplane-Foam-kit-Phoenix-60-Wing-/320998683108?pt=Radio_Control_Vehicles&hash=item4abd0331e4

the plane is $10 + $12 shipping or you could build your own from looking at the auction details. the material in the auction is 5mm. Plane is 60inch winspan. 37inch fuselage length. it's a trainer. look at his other auctions also. happydad Small Cox Logo

The Kyosho Edge 540
Has the same set up, but is bank n yank and a lot
Of fun.
I imagine it profile fused would be quite a hot ship.
Very Happy
