Your Russian type should be close to nil an/dihedral in flight depending on how bendy the wings are.

The wings of the A380 Airbus will bend up to 6 metres at the tips at high g loadings. So from droop on the ground to bend up at AUW on take off may well startle many of the pax and the pilots if they were able to see them!!
