I've been glancing through the configuration files for this aircraft. There's several thing written in Nasal I'd like to port over to JSBSim systems: - Flaps function based on voltage - Flaps retract automatically above 250 knots - Airbrakes function based on voltage - Airbrakes retract automatically above mach 1.3 - Move drag chute to an external force and do much more of it in JSBSim - Refuel, use the internal JSBSim refuel mechanism instead of nasal interpolations. - Landing gear function based on voltage - Landing gear will not retract below 150 knots - Landing gear emergency will lock gears down I also plan to make the FDM more 360 degree capable as well as making it less yaw stable above mach 1.7 Thanks, Ron ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable. Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes sense of it. IT sense. And common sense. http://p.sf.net/sfu/splunk-d2d-c2 _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
