E475
E475 (15.01%)
Wing Geometry Simulator
The E475 (15.01%) is a thin 7.5% chord-thickness airfoil with a maximum camber of 3.8% at 22% chord, suited to high-speed UAVs, sailplane tip sections, and propeller blade design. At zero angle of attack the cambered geometry generates positive lift, giving an estimated zero-lift angle of -3.8°.
Thin airfoil theory predicts a stall angle near 11.8° and a peak lift-to-drag ratio around 56 at typical UAV and light-aircraft Reynolds numbers — useful benchmarks before running a full XFOIL or NeuralFoil polar. The slim profile minimises pressure drag at higher speeds but leaves limited spar depth for structural integration.
Designers evaluating the E475 typically compare it against profiles of similar thickness: FX 71-L-150/30 AIRFOIL, NACA 16-015, FX 71-L-150/30 AIRFOIL, D.G.A. 1138, GOE 767 AIRFOIL. The MH 93 15.98% is another reference profile frequently considered alongside it.
