Hello Boys !

I like to build this Escale Flying wing http://www.nurflugel.com/Nurflugel/Fauvel/e_AV36.htm

I would like to fly in thermals, my wing should be 173 cm (68in) in all balsa construction.

IŽll do all plans foir this built, but I never did any Plank Wing, and I have some doubts:

- What airfoil wil be good ? (I know that is needed a Reflex airfoil).
What airfoil could be good ?

- MH 100
- Eppler 330
- Eppler 333

or other ?

- How to find a CG of a plank wing ? (is on 30% of the wing like an airplane ?)

- There are some more things that I need to know to do this project ?

Many thanks for all help !

Lucke
