I completely agree with TD. Currently there is no clamp on the GS deflection in navradio.cxx. The existing clamp on CDI deflection is unrealistic and should be removed IMHO. ============= BTW t A) The existing navradio implements target radial and actual radial for the azimuth (CDI) which is realistic for some instruments B) It doesn't implement the corresponding things for the glideslope. Is there anything unrealistic about item (B)? Is there any instrument/system in the world that expects the nav tuner to put out the GS angle in degrees? The only MK-VIII known to me is a GPWS, and I very much doubt it needs to know any GS info beyond the usual position within the GS beam as a fraction of the peg-to-peg sector. Is there any realistic market for gs-deg information? Should model instruments depend on info not available to the corresponding RW instruments? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
