Gavin & Colin,
Colin is correct about starting the Dihedral at BL0.0
as opposed to starting the dihedral somewhere
outboard.
I'm not a loads engineer, but I did a "sanity " check
with one here at work.
Here are some issues that you may encounter by
starting the dihedral at BL0.0:

If you are considering starting the wing dihedral at the fuselage
instead of the wing attach fittings as called for in the plans and
are using the Diehl type gear, the wing dihedral angle will carry
through to the camber of you main gear wheel. You will have
to shim or modify the attach
