Notes
- NACA 1410: 1 % camber at 40 % chord, 10 % thick.
- NACA 4-digit: first digit = maximum camber in % of chord, second = its position in tenths of chord, last two = maximum thickness in % of chord (NACA Report 460).
- Ordinates are in % of chord from the leading edge, computed from the published equations with the closed-trailing-edge thickness coefficient (−0.1036, as in NASA TM-4741). The original reports use an open trailing edge (−0.1015); the difference is under 0.03 % of chord near the trailing edge.
- The file is a 100 mm chord section, 20 mm deep: scale it uniformly to your chord, or import the STEP and sweep or loft it into a wing. Thickness scales with chord; the shape is the same at any size.

Questions
How thick is the NACA 1410?
Maximum thickness 10.00 % of chord at 29.9 % chord: 10.00 mm on a 100 mm chord.
Where is the NACA 1410's camber?
Maximum camber 1.00 % of chord at 40.0 % chord.
How do I use it for my wing?
Scale the 100 mm section to your chord (e.g. 180 mm chord = 180 % scale), then extrude or loft between root and tip sections. For a tapered wing, scale a root and a tip copy and loft between them.
