OK.... So .... A) We are now agreed that deflection as a fraction of full scale is a supported feature, not deprecated, not scheduled to "rot", right? B) The proposal is to add a new output, just like the old output, but with a different normalization factor. That's the main point of this thread, right? C) The old oddly-normalized output will continue to be supported for the foreseeable future, since is doesn't interfere with new features and preserves compatible interoperation with older CDIs, right? D) Lesser points include: -- Outputs should not be clamped by the tuner. Each CDI head may choose to peg the needles, or not, in its own way. -- Localizer sensitivity is runway-dependent. -- Dozens of other navradio.cxx bugs as discussed elsewhere. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
