| Feb 9, 2023 at 6:22 | comment | added | sophit | There are many good answers here about tandem wing configuration, like this one or this one. Read especially carefully the comments of @PeterKämpf 🖖 P.s.: I clean up a bit my comments. | |
| Feb 8, 2023 at 21:50 | comment | added | Mark | Thanks for replying. Its so big cause its a tandem wing. The design is kind of similar to the Switchbade 600 edrmagazine.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/…. So for the plane to be aerodynamically correct, what would you suggest me to do with these wings. Thanks again for your time <3 . | |
| Feb 8, 2023 at 19:17 | comment | added | Mark | I hav echoosen the flat bottom airfoil. But I am not sure why should my forward wing stall? As you can see on my image, the front wing generates lift and has ailerons. The rear one is sort of big lift generating stabilizer with elevators and a fin. | |

| Feb 8, 2023 at 16:39 | comment | added | Mark | Yes, I have. Though I am still trying to put the wings more apart = more stability, but I need my payload in front. Gotta find the sweet spot :). | |

| Feb 8, 2023 at 15:25 | comment | added | Mark | @sophit Yes, it will be an RC trainer. Though I decided to make the wings straight (picture updated), to make it easier to build. | |
| Feb 8, 2023 at 7:03 | comment | added | slebetman | For real tandem wings the rear wing is exactly the same size (not smaller) than the front. But yes, that's where you put the elevators. It's exactly the same logic for canards where the rear wings is also where you put the elevators (though they're normally configured as elevons - elevator+ailerons) | |

Changed the heading, correctly added the image to the question, improved readibility and fixed some technical terms.

I removed the Tags "radio" and "radio-communication", as they have no relation to the question.
