There aren’t too many materials that satisfy this (and that are cheap!), but a few that do are cardboard, and depron foam, famous for r/c planes. You can make the plane as small or as large as you want, so buy the material accordingly. • You generally want to make the body flat, because it is hard to curve the material.
