David, thanks for your insight. This is exactly the theoretic discussion I am looking for. Truth be told only a select few people can fly these aircraft to there full potential anyway (Haha and I am definitely not one of them).

So from what I gather straight LE causes instant abrupt stalls and the more tapered they are the softer the stall. So does that mean a Giles 202 which has straight TE and very tapered LE will have an extremely soft stall? I also gather that wing configs that have both TE and LE sacrifice some softer stall as well as less wing area for a higher roll rate.

As far as tail moment goes, it just seems to me that longer or shorter will depend on pilots preference as to what type of 3d maneuvers he/she prefers.

So now we have laid down theory, how do certain airframes balance these configurations to produce better or worse 3D characteristics. The only example I can give is my Cap 232. It has a very slightly tapered leading edge with a very taped trailing edge. The elevator moment is short while the rudder moment is longer. It flies very nimble, has quick roll rate, and fairly low wing loading. One of the tendencies this airframe has though is it tends to snap roll very quickly/easily. Which can be good or bad depending on whether you were trying to snap roll.
