8.2: Equations of Motion in Rectangular Coordinates

After 8 years and 40 RC aircraft designs, the Skyward stands out as our most stable and predictable model so far. Its behavior is defined by key aerodynamic choices: • Larger size → higher Reynolds numbers and smoother flight • Optimized wing loading → stability without sacrificing control • Near-rectangular wing planform washout → safe stall behavior and better efficiency Every detail was designed with predictability, safety, and pilot confidence in mind. What other aerodynamic factors do you t
