Hi new to drones and I am designing a flying wing and doing modifications to a fixed wing drone. I made a design in XFLR5 for the flying wing, after analysis I am getting a CL value of 0.119 at zero angle of attack at a speed of 15m/s. Is this a typical value for flying wings? I am going to have a payload of around 2kg and seeing the CL value the wing will not produce enough lift at cruise condition.
Similar is the case of the fixed wing, in the fixed wing case I know that we can place the wing at angle which would provide the required lift, but in the case of flying wing what changes can be made?
Thank you
