I have been using "Radiant Barrier" from Home Depot in the US and Duct Tape to make my own. There was an article in FlyRC on doing this. Since they came out so well I think I am going to replace the duct tape with cloth and actually sew them. See what the building supply stores have in your area.

Shame they don't post the prices on their website or respond to my email on the same question. Oh well.

I have (2) sets of Hobby-Pak wing bags, have been quite satisfied, and reasonably priced.

I have the same exact bags as stated in the above post!!! I like them. I just wish they made some stab bags.. I usually stick my stabs in the outer side of the wings then zip them all up together. I had talked to them about getting stab bags. The lady I spoke with said that she would talk to her supplier about this..
Here is some other pretty sweet bags for a great price!!!

Thinking about getting a matching set for my pilot-rc yak 35% yellow flame!!!! These are pretty sick looking bags

I have been buying small fleece blankets (baby blankets) from Crazy Clark's and using as "poor man's" wing bags.
They give surprisingly good protection and cost less than $10

You get pink elephants and baby pictures as a bonus

Thanks for the links, but all the US based wing bag manufacturers want almost the value of the product in postage to get them to Australia.

In the mean time, I've had another look around, and yesterday bought three $5 windscreen shades for cars. I will sew them together for wing bags.
