    We've probably all heard that elliptical wings are most efficient, but it's actually Elliptical Lift Distribution that does that. That doesn't occur with a simple flat wing, it needs to be very carefully designed, with changing airfoil section and twist. To get that plus good tip-stall characteristics is very tricky, best build it light, and don't slow it down too much!
