In this video I look at the issues of roll and yaw stability, why flying wings are often swept back, how sweep produces a dihedral effect and unwanted yaw-roll coupling, as well as ways to reduce the unwanted effects of sweep. I hope I've made this simple enough to understand and it encourages you to experiment with designing or modifying your own RC flying wing planes.
