In the un-simplified version of your analysis, are differential controls for controlling lift offset factored in? They are mentioned here:

I saw Mr. Walsh present this paper, I think it was 2011.

They also show southwell plots and tip clearance in level flight. What do you think will happen as maneuver loads are added in?

Also you mention that thick roots penalize ABC concept aircraft because of reverse flow. The pictures I have seen, from the USPO and shown on Dave Jackson's unicopter site show a symmetrical root end. Will that care if it is in reverse flow or not?
