Default How to make a Q500 wing??

I've been flying in the 424 class for a year now using my GP Viper, but now I would like to try other designs and airfoils. The problem is that I don't know enough to build a wing that will withstand the high g forces. I do know that a q500 wing has a styrofoam core that is sheeted with 1/16 balsa wood, and that the center section and TE are reinforced with layers of fiberglass. I don't however, if the wing has a spar and how to build it. I found several plans on q500.org, but they don't show how the wing is built.
Can anybody please help me????
