Next revolution in pattern planes?

The only negative to the anhedral stab is difficulty with the inverted spin. 
The upright spin is super, very graceful. The difficulty can be corrected by 
"slaunching" the stab tips and giving the tips positive incidence, 60 -70 
degrees (flat ) is needed. Hope I made this understandable.
