Description: The conditions essential to the stability of an airplane with free control surfaces are studied. Calculations are based on typical airplane characteristics with certain factors varied to cover a range of current designs. The effects of reducing the chord and of eliminating the floating tendency of the surface, of changing the wing loading and of decreasing the radius of gyration of the airplane are indicated. An investigation has also been made of the nature of the motion of the airplane with controls free and of the modes of instability that may occur. Stability with the controls free generally depends more critically on the design of the control system than on the stability characteristics of the airplane.
