Tests to Determine Effects of Slipstream Rotation on the Lateral Stability Characteristics of a Single-Engine Low-Wing Aircraft Model

Paul E Purser, Margaret F Spear

Abstract

Report presenting testing of a model of a single-engine low-wing airplane with three propeller-blade settings and three values of tail length to provide information on the effects of slipstream rotation on the directional stability and control characteristics. Results regarding the comparison of computed and measured coefficients and stability are provided.
