RE: Eagle II with 0 dihedral
I also have an eagle 2 with no dihedral. I am not so sure of the differences in landing as the eagle II is a floater either way. I have made a few mods to my eagle II and still fly it regularly even though I have several other higher performance type craft.
removing the dihedral is fine depending on your ability. If your still learning, then you may want to keep some, otherwise build the wing flat.
