This sounds pretty neat! I've got a couple of questions:

  1. Where does microgravity play a role in your test setup? Which part of this experiment requires a low gravity environment to work properly?
  2. What do you mean that the plasma actuators do not create enough thrust? My understanding of flaps (we're talking the aerodynamic control surface, right?) is that they just affect the amount of lift/drag generated by the wing to change the stall speed.
  3. At what level of detail are you modeling the actuators right now?

Anyway, good luck with your research!
