Discussion
A flying wing demonstrator is found to be extremely sensitive to small changes in loading, with handling deteriorating sharply for a shift of only a few centimetres.
Why is this configuration so sensitive?
Answer: B
Without a tailplane there is no long moment arm to generate a strong restoring moment. The available static margin is inherently small, so a shift that a conventional aeroplane would absorb consumes most of what such a design has.
