I am not trying to sound rude but if you are advanced enough to fly an Edge then it seems you would know how to check for dihedral. If you hold one wing panel down flat on a level flat surface then the other wing panel should also lay flat. If you hold one panel down flat and the opposite panel rises up off of the flat surface then you have dihedral.
Flamminheli, Im a aircraft mechanic in the Air Force and I rig flight controls. Would it be fair to say that if a pilot is advanced enough to fly a plane then should he not know how to fix his own plane?
