I have been playing with the external FDM interface and noticed something strange, that I was able to verify with the magic carpet FDM. It appears that both pitch and yaw are earth relative and not aircraft body relative. I can pause the FDM, roll the aircraft to 90 degrees (using the properties menu) and I find that positive pitch moves me toward the sky and negative toward the ground (I chose 90 degrees because things are more exaggerated). I was expecting a change in aircraft pitch to equate to a change in heading, and conversely a change in aircraft yaw should give a change in pitch, WRT the earth.
Am I expecting the right behavior or am I just confused? Thanks, Jonathan Polley _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
