RobRiley, "it would still benefit with an end plate on the bottom
just because there isnt a lot else you can do with it"
I would prefer to run it down as close as possible to the deck. Same Idea.
RobRiley, "and a narrowing near the tip, as that 10-15% is wasted anyway
a cut off on a double elliptical or facsimile would place more area, therefore lift toward the base lowering the CE"
Yes all good.
Right now I am going through NACA files and looking at lift compared to the angle of attack for different air foils to compensate for the twist. I know that they transition a little on sailplanes but they use ailerons and asymmetrical foil sections which makes it easier for them.
For the top of the wing I want less lift and a wider AOA range before stalling.
So we are thinking along the same track.
