Default Using Profili v2 to make airfoils?

Hello, I just finally downloaded this program... took me a while, and I want to learn how to use this program. I see that there are hundreds upon hundreds of different airfoils in this program... what airfoil would be good for a 60 size aerobatic funfly plane like the Great Planes U-CAN-DO-3D?

this program is huge and i can see will take me a lonnnng time to learn how to use it any help will be greatly appreciated

Anything symmetric that looks nice in the 12-15 percent thick will fly well. The biggest improvement in flyng would be to keep the airplane light. Look over the kits that are available, photos in mags, plans in mags and get a feel for what has been used. Nothing works like copying from a proven design.
