    XFLR5 is probably not the right tool to analyze any blended configuration. It focuses on traditional airframes, and the fuselage modeling is limited.

    You do realize this is not the XFoil discussion group, right?

After some iterations, the results become unrealistic for some airfoils, although when I solve those airfoils on XFOIL separately from MATLAB, it gives the correct results.

    Not necessarily. An airfoil can be pitch-unstable. A flying aircraft will likely be stable to fly.

    It’s because you have “Fin” checked in your plane definition window, but you actually have no fin as the Blade has a V-tail.

    I think most users of this forum only use English. Anyway, TE is “trailing edge”, and LE is “leading edge”.

    Direct analysis = 1 operating point at a time Batch analysis = multiple OpPs in a batch, sequentially Multithreaded batch analysis = same as above, but on multiple threads.

    It’s not the local speed, it’s the freestream velocity. On Mar 27, 2018, at 9:02 AM, Vincenzo Iannone einaud@users.sourceforge.net wrote: Many thanks, André, for your prompt answer.
