Therefore, the aircraft is laterally stable.
An aircraft has a static margin of 0.2 and a pitching moment coefficient of -0.05. Determine the aircraft's longitudinal stability. Flight Stability And Automatic Control Nelson Solutions
For lateral stability, the following condition must be satisfied: Therefore, the aircraft is laterally stable
For directional stability, the following condition must be satisfied: 0 where Kp
-0.05 < 0
where Kp, Ki, and Kd are the controller gains.
-0.1 < 0
