Hi Ampere

In the short term, I guess I can export those parts that need illumination
into ac format, thus bypassing the whole 3ds illumination problem
altogether.
However, I don't think this can be a permanent solution. As far as I can
tell, illumination in ac

Hi Guys
Of course you could do what I did with the
P51 I could not fly just make a quick FDM
in JSBSIM with aeromatic.
I know thats not the fix but hey it flys
Cheers

Hi All,
Hoping to pick up on flying lessons again and was wondering if I can
record NMEA flight data of my lessons and play it back in FG ?
To add to this does anyone know of a way of recording bank angle / glide
path in a format usable by FG ?
Playback of real flights would be a nice feature.

attaching a weight on a stick to it. Mount the mouse in a cage with a
spirit level on it, fix the cage in the aircraft and get a zeroed
reading and then record mouse positions against time during flight.

Correct, and not only by centrifugal forces. _Any_ sort of acceleration
will make your data unsuable. You're looking for what is called IMU,
Inertial Measurement Unit. A

Typical IMU's don't handle planet rotation at all because they never
know _where_ on the planet they are located (you need to handle it
different depending on which half of out earth you
I know. It is like the way things are done in 3D Studio. Unfortunately, most
of these features aren't working with 3ds format in FlightGear. I even had a
specular level problem at the very beginning.
As for illumination, it is better done by a mask rather than selecting
material property.

I mistakenly specified both --vor and --ndb (I meant to say --adf
instead of --ndb), and got a segfault on the startup, even
before the splash screen.

If you *really* want the attitude information, your best bet is to buy one
of the new, portable backup gyros like this:

They're not cheap, but they'd be an order of magnitude cheaper than trying
to set something up to interface with the

If you look around (u-nav.com, micropilot.com, etc.) there are a number
