First wing done!

This was the layup from bottom (all around 200grams carbon):

big tow biax, uni (wing full length), biax
core
2x twill (opposite to each other)



Here is the question:

- I can bend this wing slightly ( torsional )? Is this ok? It will bend slightly longitudinally, I'm guessing they all do?
