Hi everybody,
I'm doing a project where we need to design an rc airplane. Now we have some trouble figuring out how much control surface we will need. At first we also needed to build the plane and our plan was to make a estimated guess and then test it out before the competition day and make changes where needed. (it is a competition of which group can built the plane that can lift the most weight) But because of Covid19 our university decided to replace the building by us delivering set parameters to our coach who will moddel it into a flight sim. So now we can't test beforehand if our control surface will be enough. Do you guys have anny tips?
