The best wing tip shape for this type, according to Selig is to do this: Match the 
underside so that the tip undersurface is the
same as the undersurface of the wing. Contour the top down to the undersurface. 
Slightly curved profile is OK. If done with these
instructions the tip will shape itself. Sorry! We will add this and diagram to 
instructions.
