Looking to make an alloy wing but I dont know how thick it should be. I have 1/64" 1/32" and 1/16" panels I can make it from. Which should I go with? I can work the 1/64" somewhat easily but making hard corners requires a vice. I dont think I'll be bend the 1/32 or 1/16 pieces so those would have to be cut to shape.
Right now im looking at doing either a 1 piece wing with all parts flaring upward, a 3 piece that is similar to the box art style wing, or a 4 piece wing that has 2 levels in it.

Re: Alloy wing thickness
I have the Thorp/Dirtburners wing on my shelfer RC10. The wing's made from 1/32" thick pieces and is riveted together.
