Bridi XLT

[Michael Ramsey]

Working on a Bridi XLT; the stabilizer has anhedral, and the wing has dihedral (with the wing upside down, there's about a 3/4 inch gap at the center). Comparing the XLT with  Bridi Great Escape, the Great Escape has a straight stabilizer, and a wing which has a top surface that is flat (minimal dihedral).

Question #1: What are the characteristics of the straight vs. anhedral stabilizer, and how does either apply to the amount of dihedral in the wing?

Question #2: With the anhedral stabilizer (on the XLT), what kind of mixing can be expected in point rolls and knife edge?

Thanks!

Michael...
