Default airfoil for Edge 540

i and my friend will make two(twin) edge 540(wingspan 220cm). We will use naca 0012 airfoil for wing. is it good? and which profil will we use for elevator and rudder?

I am scratch building an Extra 300. I am using a NACA 0014. Makes a thicker wing therefore stronger to build but slower than your NACA 0012. I will be using NACA 009 on both elevator and rudder.

Hi scserdarcan

What you need is 1 pound/cubic feet of expanded polystyrene (EPS).
