Default RE: Diferential aileron needs

The Tiggie had extreme differential...something like 1/4" down, 3-3/4" up.
I've used 100% differential... no down at all... on some of my Lifter airplanes, which fly in the tip-stall area all the time.
No down aileron prevents tip stalls due to aileron deflection.

"..no servos, just the pilot's hands and feet."

Imagine flying something like an Eindecker, with the full flying tail surfaces, which had to -held- in the trim condition all the time!
