ULTIMATE
ULTIMATE
Wing Geometry Simulator
The ULTIMATE is a thin 6.4% chord-thickness airfoil with a maximum camber of 3.2% at 34% 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 -3.2°.
Thin airfoil theory predicts a stall angle near 11.9° and a peak lift-to-drag ratio around 53 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 ULTIMATE typically compare it against profiles of similar thickness: GOE 113 AIRFOIL, S7012 8.75%, GOE 622 AIRFOIL, GOE 795 AIRFOIL, GOE 599 AIRFOIL. The GOE 415 AIRFOIL is another reference profile frequently considered alongside it.
