I've built a couple. I treat them the same as a regular biplane. I use 0 degrees decalage, about 25% stagger and 1 chord gap. If you're not planning on inverted flight and want a nice safe stall, use 1 degree or so positive on the bottom so that in the event of a stall the plane becomes nose heavy and flies on the top wing.
