The handling qualities of ONERA's small business concept plane with Distributed Electric Propulsion are assessed. The wind tunnel test data are preprocessed to isolate the aero-propulsive synergy effects. All coefficients are approximated by polynomials before being included into a flight mechanics model which is trimmed to determine the flight domain and linearized to analyse the eigenvalues.
