Default RE: Airfoil selection for light electric twin

I've used a NACA 2412 before, with a transition to a 2415 at the tips since it has a gentler stall than the 2412. Both have fairly decent lift/ drag ratio's and are capable of Cl of around 1.5. The flat bottom makes it pretty easy to make also ( one of the reasons that I went with it.)
