Not sure if any public documentation has made it out there yet, but I'm looking for a document that discusses some whether either of these two designs -- or other examples of relaxed static stability tailless canard-less deltas -- had similar deep stall characteristics to more conventional RSS designs, and if so (a) where in the AoA curve their stable deep stall ended up, compared to the ~60° for conventional designs and (b) what procedures or control systems were used to mitigate them (rocking?)?

Basically something like NASA Technical Paper 1538 is for the F-16, but on a slightly more unstable and tailless design.
