Just out of curiosity I've recently tried to request a few invalid
airports and noticed that lower case IDs crash fgfs. The reason is
the following: runways.cxx:314 searches for the kemt airport
(320) and kemt is indeed found, despite the lower case letters.
But then the loop (329) compares the

might have a little spring in it, but in general, it's going to be far
too easy for the computer user to create an elevator deflection, and
the plane's going to feel unstable.

A pilot familiar with that plane is almost certainly going to find it
very unstable in the pitch axis, and complain that the nose bounces up

relative wind tends to hold the control surfaces in one spot, and it

Is the null zone there in a real aircraft (backlash), or just a
feature of the sim to allow the pilot to go and grab a cup of coffee?
I think it's a different attempt to compensate for the lack of control
loading.
-1.0 = -1.00
-0.5 = -0.25
0.0 = 0.00
This is a good response, but it also implies that at 0 deflection, the
control is totally nonresponsive (gradient is zero). Shouldn't we
simply add a linear term here? That would make the control linear
around the centre and transition into a square response at higher
deflections.
Major A writes:
Yes, but wouldn't it be better to have at least a small amount of
control around the centre?
You do. Unlike a dead zone, this approach has no location where
moving the joystick will not produce some kind of input.
All the best,

John,
Have you compiled plib with the same compiler as the rest of the code?

You could build a software interface to your hardware that could read

Ron,
I must admid it, you have made my day.

Very few MSFS AC have 'realistic' flight models. ;) Though AVSIM
reviewers and a bunch of desktop pilots often think they are.
FS2K+ can't use realistic values of Cm_q and Cn_r at Mach 0.7/30,000
