I found the coolest site called airfoiltools.com that has an extensive library of foils, but what's really neat is a feature called airfoil plotter that allows you to enter parameters like the chord you desire and mods to the airfoil like thickness etc..., also you can have it allow for sheeting when it draws the foil, and you can use your printer to make a full size drawing that can be used to cut a template. I settled on a naca 0010, it just looked right when I laid it over the plan, it also seemed to be very similar to the three view that I have. It's an inch an 1/4 at the root and 3/4 at the tip. Should I go thicker at the tip? or does this sound like it will work fine. I appreciate your help.
