As an example of how complicated this can get, let’s say you have added a splitter with 3 possible positions, a wing with 8 possible positions, and dive planes, where you have three options: 2, 1, or none. You now have 72 new aerodynamic configurations possible (3...

For our initial post, let’s start with Aero Balance, from the basics. Aero balance is a term thrown around often but can be misunderstood. You might hear someone talk about moving their aero balance forward or backward, but what does that mean? Why is aero balance important? First, we need to learn about the Center of Pressure. The center of pressure (CP) is a fundamental concept in aerodynamics. It represents the point along an airfoil or a...
