I have made an assumption about wing washout on the lower wing of a biplane and could use some input and help from you guys.
The KT Coed has an aerodynamic twist built into the wings from 0 deg to 1.5 deg on the 3 end tip ribs shown on the rib drawings. This wing is cantilever and so there are no wires to rig and no way to change once set. Sounds great and the concept is sound for reducing tip stalls.
But on a biplane....?
I have made the assumption this washout would also be the case for the lower wing with the ailerons but then realized I have no evidence for or against this.
Any thoughts?
