Over the course of building the DarkAero 1, one of the questions we have been asked frequently is, "How do you know the DarkAero 1 will fly?" This is a good question, but it’s difficult to answer thoroughly in simple terms. This video addresses this question in part by talking through a specific example, which is simulating stall. We used SimScale's simulation tools to perform CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamic) analysis on the DarkAero 1 airframe.

SimScale is the world’s first production-ready SaaS application for engineering simulation, completely cloud-based and easily accessible through a web-browser. Try CFD and FEA now by creating a free Community account in minutes: https://www.simscale.com/
