I've read that no dihedral is needed for a flying wing for various reasons, and none is desired because it reduces your aerobatic performance. That means a flat wing is what you want. But what does "flat" mean?
Sorry, I haven't built any of the Flitetest flying wings, but here's my question. See the attached sketch. The easy way to do this is as in the top diagram, where you would build with the wings flat on the workbench. If these wings taper in chord then they'll taper in thickness, and it'll leave you with an effective anhedral as far as I can see. Not a lot, but some. Wouldn't building according to the center sketch be wiser? Or is there no need to go to the trouble?
