Andre that seems a reasonable compromise. However I would still advise using the wash out as this should also make the trimming a little easier, reducing the deflection required on the elevons, which will be influencing the turn as well as pitch.

Good Luck.

Hello John,
For sure there will be a washout.
All my free flight models are built with a washout.
My latest model is a Fokker Spin and flies extremely stable with a washout of 3°

Will finish this model with a slightly changed airfoil with thanks to Richard Crossley.
Wheels and wheelpants printed with one layer and no filler.
The printed rib is for testing how it fits.
The ribs will be lasered from balsa 1mm and 1,5mm.
The best one will be used.🤔
