Material is thermocol...... Which is easily available at stationery shops..... I will give one coating of fevicol....... And another layer of newspaper applied with fevicol and water solution(50:50) to strengthen it.
Then I will  add carbon
As per size..... It's wing span is 30".... Most of the size measurements are same as taken in the video  Smiley
Root chord is 11
Tip chord 9(including 2" of eleven.)
Sweep is 9.

Quick tip.  YOU CAN USE TOOTH PICKS with fevicol/hot glue  while joining 2 layers of THERMOCOL
Just apply glue/fevicol on tooth pick and pass through 2layers kept one on other(specially  useful in case of making kf2/KF3 airfoils.

See the image for reference,
You would see sticks laid in two patterns horizontal and vertical,  apply fevicol/feviquik/ca/ between the edges.

Let it rest for some time. Then cut a square out of them(using simple blade or balsa cutter)  .  Then take the two pieces,  and apply fevicol/ca/whatever between them and place them, one over another(one should have horizontal pattern and place it on another which is kept in vertical pattern).This will add to its strength....
Let it rest.  Then tape it.  Then heat it a little bit so that it sticks tightly.  And you will get a light yet strong motor mount.  Draw holes through the mount and use it accordingly.

I would suggest to start with a more beginner friendly model, or the brooklyn aerodrome towel if you want a delta wing type plane to start out with Hats Off

I know it will be very tough playing around with elevons.......

In my view a well balanced wing is much easier to learn and fly.
Best part is very easy to make.
