I understand, it's a tradeoff between strength of the wing and stability and landing damage.
With the "proper" anhedral with the oversize wings you would be landing on the wing tips and they wouldn't last long on my fabric covered club runway. When you are at 400' underneath the model flying it, you can't see if there is anhedral or not.
Here is one as an ultra slow flyer that does fly ok, but you can see it is pretty roll sensitive, looks like it wants to over roll.

I believe it is based on this plan set on a profile, his wings are oversized and I absolutely hate the new viper style, but you could easily take it and modify the shape is you wanted to.

Flat (horizontal) just plain doesn't look right.
