Is Humidity important? Why not report just air density and viscosity.
IMHO viscosity is importanat for count of Reynolds number.
Maybe Re don't play big role in currents FDMs but is really important for
RC modeling.
OT: What are necessary values for FDM.
air pressure
air density
viscosity
temperature
wind vector
gravitation vector,
Forgot I something?
Reagrds,
