Default RE: Making ribs for a tapered wing

Thanks for the information. My intention is to design and build a simple tapered wing set, where the LE is straight, the taper being at the TE. Ribs spaced evenly.
My intended wing would have a flat bottom trainer type airfoil, have a 10 inch root chord, and 8.5 inch tip chord, about 2.5 feet long per half (5 foot wingspan), for a .28 size nitro engine.
i think I can build one using the methods described above.
