Flying wing design

I'm new to RC. Looking about the web brought up a question perhaps someone more knowledgeable can answer. What would happen if you built a flying wing with a small amount of dihedral? Would it be more forgiving for beginners? Wouldn't inverted flight be unstable? TIA.Randy

Thanks mk, I can see this could be an addictive activity.

Paul,

28 lbs is pretty darn good. The winner of the regular class carried 31, the open carried 33 (but they were limited by max totalweight of 55lbs.).

I am very familiar with the e-series trademark. I still have the 225 with Beech Roby prop. I am at a point of having to decide between overhaul or upgrade. That old 225 does run very smooth and is extremely bullit proof. I was told there has never been a documented crank failure. Its hangared at Casa Grande, Az.
