Problem 1: Analyze the canard-wing combination shown in Fig. 1. The canard and wing are made
of the same airfoil section and have
AR AR, S = 0.25, and = 0.45%
1. Develop an expression for the moment coefficient about the center of gravity in terms of the
shown parameters (, and zg) and the three-dimensional aerodynamic characteristics of the
used wing/canard (CL C and CM).
2. What is the range of the cg location for this configuration to be statically stable?
You may simplify the problem by neglecting the upwash (downwash) effects between the lifting
surfaces and the drag contribution to the moment. You may also assume small angle approximation.
