An investigation was conducted at the request of the U.S. Air Force Avionics Laboratory to analyze the flight characteristics of a small uncontrolled glider with folding wings. The study consisted of wind-tunnel tests of an actual glider and a theoretical analysis of the performance, stability, and trimmability of the configuration.
