Default RE: Foreplane to wing incedence on a canard

Thanks B Matthews and Alasdair,
The plan is to have a span of about 54.5 with the NACA 24016 as the Root and NACA 24011 as the tip rib as this seems to work well on my Ki 61 of the same size and seems to be the normal practice on its larger counter part.It has worked well on some of my other warbirds using other airfoils.

So I should figure on making it some sort of lifting foreplane with a few degrees of incidence. One question though, the addition of a moving control surface won't affect this? And the other question is should I concider some washout in the main wing or leave it do to the nose stalling first?
