draw it out the old fashioned way.draw a line the lenth of one wing panel measure out the distantce for the other wing panel and then up from the end the total amount of dihedral.that will gice you the bottom shape just draw parrell lines the height needed and trim to cover how ever many bays they cover

Edwardo,

I too, am building a Taurus from scratch. It appears the dihedral brace extends only inbetween wing ribs 'W-1. rib W-1a is in the middle. I think if you follow Aerowolfs suggestion you will get the actual shape of it. The plans are somewhat deceiving, you really have to look closely to even find it exists.
