Hi, I need a section of wing which uses a Clark Y pofile. This is for a college project that i need to do some wind tunnel testing for. I know its used a lot for rc planes. Does anyone know where i could get a wing like this, or even have a lend?

There are wing profile generator tools on the www. A search should find a suitable one.

But Clark-Y is easy. It's the profile view of a fish as seen from above, the skin from head to tail one side, the other side a straight line from tip of tail to tip of nose.

Never looked at it that way!
I don't have a need for the wing now as my project has changed, I'm now CNC machining the wing profiles
