I have done a number of bipes, they are fun but sometimes frustrating for carrier. Slow speed is usually OK but high speed they have a tendency to get squirrely.  My advice build a monoplane for your first carrier model

PS there was a bipe, the MO-Bipe for AMA profile published in the 70's, before hanging was legal. Here is the link to the article

The winning models in 15 carrier are generally "built-to-fly" thingies that don't look much like real airplanes.

If you plan to enter The Brodak there is a nice bonus for using a Brodak product like the Junior Lightning Streak. 

Biplanes tend to roll about their centerline very well, which is the opposite of what you need in carrier.
