Lets say that because of my high builder qualities just made an anehdral of 1 inch on my falcon III wing while trying to make a flat wing, will you leave it or use the saw?

Just killed it, gonna remake wing from scratch, what was I thinking?

better to get it over with now.

Prather once made beginner's pattern plane with a high wing and anhedral. It just makes a high wing plane roll easier.

Read this, then make up your mind.

Had a friend who screwed up and had an anhedral wing. He just went ahead and flew it. Did not seem to bother him one iota. My advice is go fly. So what if it aint pretty, its the flying that counts.

High wing anhedral aircraft fly great! I luved the looks and comments this little rocket used to get in the pits and on the flight line.

High wing plus anhedral is good!!

About the anehdral effect not on flying but on my 10 yrs. old boy, he didnt like the look of the wings so he cut himself the ribs from another falcon kit and helped me build another pair, this was a sweet evening working with my boy building a plane, santa came early!!!

I went to the Ed Moorman School of Flying but I still haven't built a plane with anhedral. If I ever build another high wing plane I will give it a shot though.

> gonna remake wing from scratch, <

Don't scrap the wing. Remove the covering and with a razor saw, carefully cut it apart at the dihedral joint. Reset the dihedral angle and add new plywood joiners atop the old joiners with clamps and plenty of epoxy. I have done this to add ailerons to 3-channel models where it was necessary to reduce the dihedral angle. It will take a fraction of the time of building a new wing.

My midstar busted up in a midair crash. I rebuilt the wing with the intention of removing the dihedral. What I ended up with is about a 1/4" anhedral. I hope to have it in the air at our annual frozen finger fly day Jan 1. I'll let you know how it flies compared to when it had the 1-1/4" dihedral.

if your young fellow dont like the looks of the anhedral, just tell him it looks just like a "harrier" jump jet

Good idea, I just finished the two wing halves and need to finish two wing joiners, he is set on flat, but Ill try the anehdral pair.
BTW great background ehh
