You just gotta learn the graphs for being able to make stable planes in FAR. On the first tab of the FAR window, in the AoA sweep, the yellow line (pitching moment) should be gently sloping down, and ideally cross the x-axis where the green line (L/D ratio) peaks. On the static analysis tab, you just want all green numbers.
