That could let you fly "one" uav and let you see which fdm is off quite easily, as they will diverge and "each will show its colors as it leaves." This multi-fdm idea will work until we start modelling downwash. After that, we will need to run each fdm in "fdm spesic FG-layers." > I'd also like api interface for controlling the viewpoint, because > being UAV's, there isn't a cockpit to be inside of :) > Are there hooks for this stuff?

Scenarios always come in sets of three: best case, worst case, and just in case. _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [email protected] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
