Hi all im converting a old plane and putting bigger wings on it and a .10 engine init i can construct a firewall and all that but how would i construct a 2m wing quite light and cheap i have foam balsa , ply and fiberglassing meterials

there is more involved than just a larger wing.if you make the wing larger then you reduce the relative porportions of both the stab and rudder.if the area is reduced below say about 18 % of the wing area for the stab the plane becomes unstable .same goes for the fin.then there are control surface porportions to deal with
