I observe the same bug here. Only nav[0] is affected.
It's a bug in gps.cxx. Or maybe multiple bugs.
Why the gps.cxx code has a compiled-in reference to
/instrumentation/nav[0]/radials/selected-deg is a
mystery to me.
Why the gps.cxx code thinks it can reach over and set
the OBS on a KI-209 or similar indicator head is a
mystery to me.
Why the gps.cxx code runs at all in aircraft that don't
have a gps receiver installed is also a mystery to me.
The following workaround is something Mr. Spock would
describe as crude but effective:

Re: [Flightgear-devel] New GUI Font
LCD is essentially a memory mapped array. Each element is addressed by row and column, so in effect it can also be visualised as a raster display. To draw a vector on such a display you have to calculate which row/column elements need to be illuminated. With a vector display the hardware had a start and end X-Y positions defined for each vector. The spot was turned on by changing the potential at the CRT control grid and then X and Y were ramped to the end point before turning the spot off. It worked much like an analogue X-Y plotter. This was very efficient for simple cartoon like graphics , and also gave a display with considerably higher contrast and brightness than the alternative raster displays of the time. -- From: leee l...@spatial.plus.com Sent: Wednesday, March 03, 2010 1:56 PM To: FlightGear developers discussions flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Flightgear-devel] New GUI Font On Tuesday 02 Mar 2010, HB-GRAL wrote: Melchior FRANZ schrieb: * HB-GRAL -- Tuesday 02 March 2010: Melchior FRANZ schrieb: Helvetica is the default font used in HUDs (e.g. in the F16). While not perfect for that (there are MIL standards for this), Do you mean in real HUDs? Real HUDs use a MIL standard font. Ours use Helvetica. I even tuned that for the use in HUDs, as the prior version didn't look good in tapes. I don't say that yours is worse, just that it can't be swapped without checking. And a MIL spec compliant font should be the ultimate goal, anyway. Yes, I see that I misunderstood your comment about f-16. As I started to work for a 'all-in-one FG-Font' I had the HUD in mind and also signage because the original and OFL-Allerta is exactly for this purpose (there are some equal requirements for fonts in a display and for signage I think). Now the real standard numbers like yours(?) in the sign textures are miles better then anywhere and this standard is also used in some real HUDs. I think now it is better to separate all this things and not to work for a 'all-in-one'. Thanks- Yves Does anyone know if raster displays are used in modern HUDs? The early first generation huds were all vector displays, of course, but Wikipedia says that second generation HUDs use an LCD screen to modulate the light from an LED. However, it's still not clear to me whether this counts as a raster display (although it does suggest a raster mask). That all the HUD images I've ever seen, including modern ones, are still monochrome suggests that they're still essentially vector displays, for if the imagery is produced using an LCD then I'd expect to see different colours on the HUD, instead of the ubiquitous green (although red/orange has been used on some automobiles). If anyone can find some high-res pictures of _real_ HUD displays (and not ones from flight sims, as they're obviously going to be produced via a raster display) it should be possible to see the LCD 'dots' (unless they LCD screen uses a ridiculously high resolution, which doesn't really chime with the requirements for size and ruggedisation). Anyway, a vector type font should be used on older first generation HUDs for authenticity. LeeE -- Download Intel#174; Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.

Curtis Olson wrote: Proftpd has the ability to limit the number of connections from any single host. Yup, MaxClientsPerHost works pretty well as a 'general' rule, but still doesn't yield the desired effect because the client hostname/IP verification calls _after_ the initial connection has been accepted. In consequence, download managers are quickly catching free connections, thus filling the pool of allowed connections _before_ getting thrown out. Thus, limiting the number of connections per client indeed permits to restrict the number of FTP data connections but unfortunately doesn't result in a beneficial management of the allowed number of connections.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Aircraft modeling idea/request: Piper Super Cub
Hi, Wow...a Super Cub! That sounds great! I have a bit of time flying a Super Cub with a 150 hp Lycoming O-320 engine, but there were various engine configurations available. I know of everything from a 90 hp Continental, to a 180 hp Lycoming. But I think the 150 hp model was very popular. I also believe that there was a popular model with a 125 or 135hp Lycoming O-290, although I never flew one of those. I can see a significant benefit for having a high-performance tail-dragger like this in FG. If the model is good, this could be a trainer for floats or skis, for instance. I know we don't yet model differing surfaces, but maybe that will come one day. So if you decide to develop some sort of PA-18 Heiko, and you want some help researching the data or validating the FDM or something--just let me know. I'll help you in any way I can. I won't model this aircraft. I'm already to busy with my still running projects, and of course Real-Life. But I hope also that someone will catch it up, so we will have one in FGFS! __ Do You Yahoo!?

Anyone want to look into a torrent? Is there an easy recipe for setting one up? What's the bandwidth required to seed it? I am no expert on this at all, I haven't even created a seed yet. I suppose I am a leech but I browsed the web for a short while and came up with these suggestions: 1) Urgently, someone who has a decent upload speed and has his computer on-line 24/7 could seed the packages and publish them on fg web site and torrent tracker sites ... after reasonable time there would be enough copies available. Assuming that there are not too many leeches I don't think bandwidth is an issue. 2) Maybe web seeding could solve the problem? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent_%28protocol%29#Web_seeding 3) Or maybe one of the current ftp site maintainers could utilize http://www.torrentflux.com/ which may help? 4) There are seed boxes that can be used for a cost, http://filesharefreak.com/2009/01/15/10-really-cheap-seedboxes-that-anyone-can-afford/ As I understand the problem for fg is that we cannot rely on someone seeding just to be nice, it must be a more central source. Naively I think this is accomplished by setting up a tracker for the fg torrents only (or use a public tracker) and providing a seed that is always online. This would guarantee the availability (avoid the swarm to die http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent_%28protocol%29#The_leech_problem) of the packages but benefit from other peers during peak traffic. I think this is something that should be set up by the current bandwidth providers. They would benefit from the set up also. Surely, there must be someone among the list readers who knows more about these things? Jari -- Download Intel#174; Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.

Hi Jari, - Jari Häkkinen a écrit : Great, I haven't had an opportunity to run the new version yet. I took time to compile though, and there is a problem compiling terrasync.cxx on mac because of Apples typedef of the signal handler. I attached a small fix.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Aircraft modeling idea/request: Piper Super Cub
Ive been considering it ... unless someone beats me to it. I did some quick browsing and Im guessing the desired aircraft is the PA-18 I flew in one almost 30 years ago , and its amazing how small a sand bar in the middle of a river you can land on :) Cheers P.S.

JSBSim works best when you already have aircraft data (derivatives, etc.) and want to stick the numbers into a flight model, though you can also start with an existing one and try to tweak it for a slightly different aircraft. YASim works best when you have only the (easily-obtainable) performance numbers and want to work backwards from them. So unless you have PA-18 testing data, YASim is probably the way to go anyway.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Aircraft modeling idea/request: Piper Super Cub
The Cub was the first plane I ever flew in, before I'd even been in a commercial jet. A friend's father owned a Cub (probably a J-3, not a Super Cub-- pretty sure we didn't have flaps though that was 30 years ago and I'm not totally certain now), and we'd scrounge up some fuel money and take it out from time to time. When the Cub was down for maintenance or whatever, we'd reach deeper in our pre-college savings and rent an Aeronca Champ. So for some time now I've considered modeling the Super Cub (as the J-3 has been done) or the Champ. For me, much depends on getting good plans with lots of detail and exact measurements, and a half-hour's searching shows sources are available without much effort. So-- Syd, if no one else steps up and you're busy, and no one is in a screaming hurry to have the model (I work pretty slow), I'd be interested in taking this on as a YASim project, otherwise I'll defer to you and consider the Champ again, no worries. -Gary aka Buckaroo http://ltts.crlt.indiana.edu/grn/flightgear On Wed, Mar 3, 2010 at 3:22 PM, syd adams adams@gmail.com wrote: Ive been considering it ... unless someone beats me to it.

Cheers Thank you Syd! I am interested in doing a classic Super Cub using one of the more common engine variants to establish a baseline model, but a follow-on version based on a CubCrafters design, perhaps the Carbon Cub, would make a very interesting comparison within Flightgear. Curt, I think it's early, but if you wanted to pursue that contact with CubCrafters, I would be willing and excited to work with you on such a project. -Gary http://ltts.crlt.indiana.edu/grn/flightgear -- Download Intel#174; Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
