Now that I have “Theory of Wing Sections” I am slowly going to read through it but I was wondering if there were any particular foils I should play closer attention to.
Thanks!

All low-Reynolds profiles work fine.
Compute the Reynolds number of a fin and you’ll notice that it is lower than what is considered a low-Reynolds number in aviation.
I use the Naca 4 digit a lot since it is simple and works fine for low-Reynolds flows.
It definately is not the best profile, so if others know better profiles, I’m interested too.
