Note that the term hexagonal dipyramid in general says nothing about the relative ratio of the edge sizes. An all-unit edged version of the hexagonal dipyramid clearly would be degenerate. This non-degenerate variant uses x-edges at the equator and h-edges for lacings. The triangles {(t,T,T)} then have vertex angles t = arccos(2/3) = 48.189685° resp. T = arccos[1/sqrt(6)] = 65.905157°.
