    T1 / T2 refers to the analysis type. T1 is fixed speed, T2 is fixed lift. Opposed to the stability analysis, which is T7.

    Okay, if you're simplifying the equations that much the approach is of course different from the "normal" stability derivatives, and you don't need the stability analysis in XFLR5 to get the parameters you're looking for. You can read CL_0 from a normal T1 or T2 analysis as CL_0 = CL(alpha = 0). As established in the earlier answers, CL_alpha is then of course the gradient of the lift coefficient, which you can simply calculate with any two points from the T1 or T2 analysis. CL_q might be a bit more...

    The approach for CD is of course similar. You just need to separate into induced and parasitic (in XFLR5 viscous) drag. Getting Cm should be analogue to CL.
