BFoote,
Reality check!!
tdstaf is building a Shinden. See post #16 photos

At 54.5" wingspan I'd estimate his foreplanechord to taperfrom 4.6 to 2.4 inches. At 30 mph its Renolds number will be 40k tip, 80k root.
Suggest a section, and a rigging angle, and tell us what its maximum lift coefftmight be.
