Hi,

I just noticed that the ornithopter is not present in the aircraft viewer of fgrun. It appears that ornithopter-set.xml has no /sim/description in it. Could someone put something sensible there to make it available in fgrun ?

Hi Fred,


If you can just make something up and send it, I'll commit it later.  I
wouldn't know what to put there and probably we won't hear from Michael.


Maybe until we hear from Michael, we could just repeat the name in the description: "Ornithopter"


Curt.


In the base package, this readme has a pretty good description of the ornithopter (and the limitations of the flight model, in particular, the stall):

~/flightgear-0.9/data/Aircraft/UIUC/ornithopter/README.orni.html
This is the old location, which must have moved with the re-org.

Here's an extract that could be used for the description:

The model simulates the full scale piloted C-GPTR ornithopter designed by Prof DeLaurier and his group at the University of Toronto Institute for Aerospace Studies (UTIAS). For more info see www.ornithopter.net.

Regards,
Michael
