DEFCND2
DEFIANT CANARD BL110 AIRFOIL
Wing Geometry Simulator
The DEFIANT CANARD BL110 AIRFOIL is a 11.2% chord-thickness airfoil with a maximum camber of 5.6% at 29% chord, suited to general-aviation and UAV wing design. At zero angle of attack the cambered geometry generates positive lift, giving an estimated zero-lift angle of -5.6°.
Thin airfoil theory predicts a stall angle near 11.6° and a peak lift-to-drag ratio around 67 at typical UAV and light-aircraft Reynolds numbers — useful benchmarks before running a full XFOIL or NeuralFoil polar. The 11% thickness provides structural depth for main-spar placement without excessive drag penalty at moderate speeds.
Designers evaluating the DEFCND2 typically compare it against profiles of similar thickness: EPPLER 343 AIRFOIL, EPPLER STF 863-615 AIRFOIL, NACA 66(3)-418, GOE 29B AIRFOIL, GOE 426 AIRFOIL. The MH 201 13.08% is another reference profile frequently considered alongside it.
