Default Wing tip design?

so thats why they have the fins and not endplates.
i did make some upturned wingtips for my small glider as the block gave pleanty to do this with. when i knocked one off i noticed no tip stalling, while it sounds like they dont work, remember the other tip is on the heavy wing now covered in solartex, so it at least canceled out that weight
