How to repair a broken tail on a RC styrofoam plane?

The tail snapped off when my son crashed landed it. and i figured that tape and or ducktape would weigh the back down. not allowing it to fly properly. I also figured that glue wouldn't hold on styrofoam that well,Does anyone else have any suggestions?

    Epoxy works, some folks use tape with success, probably the best is a FOAM SAFE cyanoacrylate. If it isn't foam safe it will destroy your plane. Good luck and have fun.

    I haven't tried the glue recommended below, but it sounds good.

    5 minute epoxy and clear packing tape is what I used to use on my RC electric glider.
