if u hav 3mm or 5mm balsa then u can use to make ur mount. but since due to shape of the wing u have to make sure prop stay clear from ur wing!!!! to support mount u have to add some vertical piece as well. i am assuming u r mounting motor in pusher style!!!

in case of my foamy, i use Sunpack board, generally used in advertising... u can also use 3mm normal ply.

but make sure ur mount should come out from rear, so that prop is not touching anywhere!!!

and the the total wingspan is 37"
chord is 9.5"

as far as i now, wings are mostly pushers!!!!! but if u want u can make it puller as well, but in this case most of the impact while landing might come on motor, and may face some problem!!!

wing span is 37", are u sure if 1806 will give enough power???? i am little doubtful, but there is no harm in trying it!!!!
