Default what airfoil to use to prevent tip stall

easy folks,


I'm sorry I didn't directly state my problem

facts:

my combat wings do seem to fly well during most flight regimes

my combat wings DO tip stall when they do stall

having flown a fair amount of combat ( SSC mainly), I know that you are often pushing the limits of the flight envelope of your plane

suprises, such as tip stalls or "snaps" are not good when you have other things to worry about, oh let's say..... someone trying to cut your ribbon!!!

my combat wings do tip stall when they do stall

a more gentle, straight forward stall would be more desirable

my combat wings do tip stall when they do stall

I have moved the CG forward and yes it tames everthing down including being competitive.

Oh, and did I mention that my wings tend to tip stall?
