RE: How important is dihedral for a Low Wing?
I'm voting with Dick. On a couple of issues.
Go ahead and try it. The completed one in the attachments looks really kewl. I wish I'd done the same to mine back when I had it.
And the dihedral would be worthwhile. Look at the Tigers and 4stars for how much works.
OK, I'm going to vote twice............. Do it! No lie, it'll be unique and unique is good, really good.
(we do this for fun, right)
