Default Effect of airbrake blade height on glide slope

I've seen some airbrake blades that extend considerably over the top
of the wing and others that stop with their bottoms just flush with
the wing surface. I was wondering if any one out there has an idea of
at what point of airbrake blade height extention do they cease to have
effect on degrading glide slope.
