It's time for me to venture higher, further and faster, however. I don't trust my simulation software when it comes to stability at supersonic speeds. I know that the CP will shift, but just how 'much' will it shift under variable circumstances? There 'must' be a good way to determine a good starting point without simply 'shooting from the hip', crossing fingers... and hoping for the best.
Does anyone know of any proven 'Rules of Thumb', ratios, etc. to help me successfully determine a safe/satisfactory cal of stability prior to all maiden supersonic launches?
