I maked a triangled shape to the reinforcement beam, instead of incrase de thickness of that part, so it results lighter, but still strong

Seems like a good profile! - L.

Foam is a really good idea. Easy to cut; like butter - L.

The reinforcement glider parts
Thanks Leif. You encourage me to continue my flying glider proyect. ¿How do you think about the triangled master beam I maked for the wings reinforcement? I do that to get the whole model weight lower. And I want to tell you: The 5 milimeters card board material I have used for making the wigs profile, is NOT an easy stuff to handle. This kind of card, with two thin card faces and the fiber foam between them, is hard to cut in a clean way! You can see the picture. I like not this very much! but I acepted that, because the thin card faces of the resulting part are properly delinied, with the correct wig profile to make up the wings on the proper shape. But yes! this Card Board is a strong and ligth material for the reinforced parts, to get a good flying card model.

This 5 milimeters Cardboard material, I can found in my stationery shop, is nice to cut it, but you must be quite sure to do this with a sharp cutter in straight way over the desk. So you can do an accurate job. The only disavantage with this material is, when you slide the cutter, you may compress, instead of cut the foam fiber core of the Cardboard, so you can not be able to get a nice, clean cut, every time.

Good to hear about your experience with the 5 mm cardboard material. I was thinking about thinner foam (with no card) laminated to the paper parts you want to cut out. Looking forward to more about the triangular spar. - L.
