## Description

This MCP server provides precise hydrodynamic calculations for hydrofoil enthusiasts. Use `calculate_lift_speeds` to determine the minimum speed required for lift-off, the stall speed, and the most efficient cruising velocity based on wing geometry and rider weight. You can also use `analyze_stability_envelope` to evaluate how anhedral and mast angles affect control, or `get_design_recommendations` to find the ideal wing configuration for racing, cruising, or beginner activities.

## Tools

### analyze_stability_envelope
Evaluates how geometry (anhedral and mast angle) affects the rider's control range and stability

### calculate_lift_speeds
Determines the primary speed thresholds (lift-off, stall, and cruise) for a specific foil setup

### compare_foil_configurations
Allows a user to compare two different wing setups to see which provides a better speed or stability profile for a specific weight

### get_design_recommendations
Provides high-level guidance on which wing type to choose based on the user's goal

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the lift-off speed for a 75kg rider using a 1200cm2 wing with a 5 aspect ratio and 40cm fuselage?
```

**Response:** 
```
The required lift-off speed for your setup is 12.4 m/s.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is a setup with 5 degrees of anhedral and 2 degrees of mast angle stable?
```

**Response:** 
```
The stability rating is Stable with Easy control difficulty.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Recommend a wing setup for a 80kg rider who wants to go racing.
```

**Response:** 
```
For racing, a recommended front wing area is 950cm2 with an aspect ratio of 7.5 to maximize speed.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I calculate my lift-off speed?**
You can use the `calculate_lift_speeds` tool by providing the front wing area, aspect ratio, rider weight, and fuselage length.

**Can I compare two different foil setups?**
Yes, use the `compare_foil_configurations` tool to see which setup provides a better speed or stability profile for your weight.

**What should I choose for beginner riding?**
Use `get_design_recommendations` with the target activity set to 'beginner' to receive specific wing area and aspect ratio suggestions.
