Default RE: Building a wing

Most of the twisting stiffness comes from the covering, and it is normal for a skeleton to twist.

Monokote is quite heavy and will add a lot of tension to the wing and may twist the structure (warp it). Nelson LiteFilm is as easy to use but it is considerably lighter and doesn't shrink so hard.
