Hi Gaurav,
For questions specific to JSBSim code, you might also ask on the jsbsim
mailing list (details at www.jsbsim.org) -- although I'm sure several of the
developers are subscribe to both flightgear and jsbsim devel lists.
One other thought if you want to avoid changing C++ code or you wish to
support versions of FlightGear that are already released, is that you might
be able to create a simple battery model using Nasal (flightgear's embedded
scripting language.) You could perhaps limit maximum throttle position
based on the output of your battery simulation to simulate the what happens
as your battery is used up (or to simulate an aging battery, etc.)
I know batteries are pretty complex if you dig into them, but you could
probably hack something simple really quickly that would get you 90% of the
way there and cover most of the situations you would be concerned about.
Curt.
