Default delta drag

This thread has been very informative, your knowledge is impressive. I want to build a plane similar to the one AKMAC drew. At these speeds (around 150-200 mph) does the sweep or taper in the wings actually do anything, or would a straight constant chord wing be the same? Any comments about wingtips? Finally, could someone tell me where I can read about hinge systems for composite models? Thanks, Hans
