Default trailing edge.. to round off, or not to round off??

Square them off. If your ever on the skating edge for flutter, the rounded ones will take your plane out first. It's all in the aerodynamics of how the air breaks away from the trailing edge during flight.

But by all means, Definitely do what Daven says. This is most important, but you might as well cover all the angles up front.

Cheers!
