Here's a continuation post to the RC airplane project i posted about earlier if anyone happened to be interested

As you might see from the picture i ended up going with a lot bigger aspect ratio (the wingspan is still the same 2 meters) than what i first thought i'd go with, i wanted to go with 50 which would have meant a chord of 40mm but i just couldn't get my spars to have a big enough hole for the 3mm carbon fiber rod at the height of 4mm so i ended up going with a height of 4.4mm and a chord of 44mm which gives me an aspect ratio of somewhere around 45 which is completely fine.
I decided to space the spars around 5cm apart which ought to give me nice structural strength without much weight.
I'm still figuring out how to attach these two 1 meter wing halves to my carbon fiber rod frame but i'm sure i'll manage now that i've got a 3d printer.
