Dihedral angle is the upward angle from horizontal of the wings or tailplane of a fixed-wing aircraft. "Anhedral angle" is the name given to negative dihedral angle, that is, when there is a downward angle from horizontal of the wings or tailplane of a fixed-wing aircraft.
Dihedral angle (or anhedral angle) has a strong influence on dihedral effect, which is named after it. Dihedral effect is the amount of roll moment produced per degree (or radian) of sideslip. Dihedral effect is a critical factor in the stability of an aircraft about the roll axis (the spiral mode). It is also pertinent to the nature of an aircraft's Dutch roll oscillation and to maneuverability about the roll axis.
Longitudinal dihedral is a comparatively obscure term related to the pitch axis of an airplane. It is the angle between the zero lift axis of the wing and horizontal tail. Longitudinal dihedral can influence the nature of controllability about the pitch axis and the nature of an aircraft's phugoid-mode oscillation.
An airplane wing that points up is not designed just for good looks. This feature is called dihedral and there is a very good reason for it. Find out in this video.

How Does the Dihedral Effect Work in Aircraft?
#dihedral #aviation #physics
In aviation, dihedral wings increase aircraft stability on the roll axis. In this video I wanted to explain the physics and engineering behind this phenomenon. There are a lot of misconceptions and false physics surrounding many aerodynamics topics, and I specifically wanted to address dihedral wings since they're very common in RC and full scale aviation.

What Is Dihedral? How Does It Work? When To Use It?
A brief and basic description of how the dihedral effect works in airplanes. Useful in some situations and some airplanes, dihedral has some advantages and disadvantages. Having a simple understanding of the principle at work can help you build and operate a plane with dihedral or polyhedral.

what is dihedral
Wing Dihedral is the upward angle of an aircraft's wing, from the wing root to the wing tip. The amount of dihedral determines the amount of inherent stability along the roll axis. Although an increase of dihedral will increase inherent stability, it will also decrease lift, increase drag, and decreased the axial roll rate. As roll stability is increased, an aircraft will naturally return to its original position if it is subject to a brief or slight roll displacement. Most large airliner wings are designed with dihedral.
