Type-7 Stability Analysis – Can control surfaces(elevator) can be used for trim? of UAV

[AadarshGejage]

Dear team,
as of now my type7 stability analysis is not running, due to my aircraft geometry is not getting trimmed naturally, so I am getting an error like this "Unsuccessful attempt to trim the model for control position = 0.00" so if I add my control surface elevator then it should trim, so while doing type7 stability analysis is their any option so I can involve my control surface with setting a limit upside & downside angle of elevator so that I will get done my type7 stability analysis. please let me know waiting for reply

Hi,
the analysis does not automatically trim your aircraft. You need to do it manually.

Cheers,
Stefan

thank you Stefen cheers.

You simply deflect the control surface, in this case your elevator, in the analysis settings. The same as in other analyses with control surface deflections.
I'll include it in planned videos.
