Have you tried to use <property>inertia/weight-lbs</property> from JSBSim
being the basic value with a gain factor in order to get the right magnitude
value
for instance :
<pure_gain name="systems/mule/mule-force">
<input>inertia/weight-lbs</input>
<gain>0.15</gain>
</pure_gain>
Was experimented with Crusader and an other lighter aircraft
(Fouga-Zephyr) and working perfectly ( same gain).
