How to improve overall stability on aircraft?

7,831 SimplyNonsensical  2.8 years ago

Can anyone provide some sort of list of variables that affect aircraft performance? It's a bit of a huge favor too, but if possible, can you also investigate my aircraft?

I'm trying to finish a build I've put aside and came back on after having a real difficult time working on its design and stability. This aircraft will yaw violently while maneuvering , struggle to pitch, or wobble when pitching. Despite the presence of flaps (with wings inside), this thing still falls like a brick at stall speed. Slats, not functional.

    Making your wingloading low.This is a very effective method, especially for vibration at high speed. Of course, if you use an ordinary wing, I suggest you replace it with a structural wing and use overload to add flaps to it。

    move the wings back or move the center of mass foward
    preferably both
