Can the view offset or rendering code (whatever it is that draws the

Well, yes, because they're just properties. But unless I
misunderstand you, you don't want to do that. The FDM reports the
lat/lon/alt of the aircraft coordinate origin, not the c.g., no?


I don't think that's what he means. I took him to mean that the visual model
origin is translated to the CG every frame. If that's what you mean, you really
don't want to do that. That's a matrix transform for every vertex in the model.
