Default RE: 2 meter sig riser

Riser 2M Dihedral
With the main (inner) wing panel held flat against the table...
1) the tip panel's outer rib is 2 1/4" off the table surface.
2) the other main panel's outer rib is 2 3/4" off the table.

With the wing symmetrically balanced on the center joint (flight attitude), there should be 4 degrees under each inner wing panel and 10.8 degrees under each tip panel. All degree values measured with respect to horizontal, not to another wing panel.


Riser 100 Dihedral
With the main (inner) wing panel held flat against the table...
1) the tip panel's outer rib is 3 3/4" off the table surface.
2) the other main panel's outer rib is 1 1/2" off the table.

With the wing symmetrically balanced on the center joint (flight attitude), there should be 1.7 degrees under each inner wing panel and 8.9 degrees under each tip panel. All degree values measured with respect to horizontal, not to another wing panel.
