As a commonly used configuration for advanced unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), the flying-wing configuration suffers from pitching moment trimming issues due to the lack of horizontal tail. The UAV either needs to unload lift at the trailing edge or needs to increase the wingtip twist angle at the cost of losing the lift-to-drag ratio. The commonly used methods for solving pitching moment trimming issues are compared and analyzed in this paper, and it is found that the method of trailing-edge twist has advantages under cruising lift coefficient. Furthermore, a trailing-edge twist deformation parameterized model that can deform multiple critical sections is designed with relevant grids. The multi-objective genetic algorithm is used to optimize the parameterized model and obtain the optimized results. Through comparative analysis, it is found that the optimized trailing-edge twist model has an advantage in distributing the pitching moment. By optimizing the distribution of aerodynamic forces and moments, cruise trim is achieved with only a 1.43% cost to the cruise lift-to-drag ratio compared to the initial model.
