[Flightgear-devel] Gliding/Soaring in FlightGear

2007-05-01 Thread Laurence Homer

Really Sorry! Forgot to change the subject of the e-mail

Hi,

I'm trying to use FlightGear for some gliding/soaring simulation, and I've
got a few questions...

First, am I right that the AIthermal already written only works with JSBSim
Flight Models, and that that conversely the turbulence model (used in the
AIstorm), and the new winch launching model only work with YASim?

I've done a bit of work on the AI thermal in an attempt to make it a bit
more realistic, but I was wondering if there was an easy way to either make
the thermal work with YASim aircraft, or the winch launch with JSBSim?

Thanks in advance,

Loz

Hi,

as far as I know thermic is only with jsbsim and the
winch/towing only with yasim.

Maybe there is a possibility with an nasal script to
fake thermals in yasim.

We are working on a general purpose external force model for JSBSim,
which would include a winch-launch capability. That's in-work. No ETA.

Wouldn't faking a winch/towing for JSBSim aircraft be easier? I don't 
think it's that difficult to change an aircraft's position along a 
certain flight path (in FS2004 I used to fake a winch launch just by 
slewing up)
