Thanks, Jon
judging by the date on the msg and looking over the code in an older 2.4 (
released around 2010 ) would appear the suggested change is in. And the
property <rate-limit> sets the rate at which the actuator moves. Correct?
node->getChild("position-norm", 0,
true)->setDoubleValue(gear->GetGearUnitPos());
is the line of code in JSBSim.cxx.
And to simulate a gear failure, one would set the rate limit property to zero?
Neat! I'll give it a try tomorrow. Just installed a new gear system and gear
indicators in the 737. Yes, downsizing the sim from a 747 to a 737 to make room
for the new collimated displays. As Gene put it, serving as his first victim
for the big iron display. The next few months will be interesting ;-)

Subject: [Flightgear-devel] Gear transit times
Hi,
Is it possible to specify gear up and down transit times for each gear? In real
airplanes the gear never ( well rarely, maybe ) sequence in perfect unison. In
reviewing the xml files for the 737, I note there are transit times defined for
each flap position, but the kinematics for the gear is only a single value for
up or down based on gear selection state.
Is this something in Nasal? or native code or something in JSBsim?
Thanks
Jack
