I'm very much surprised to see that you intend to use YASim for an
aircraft, that you want to model based on existing flight data.
Do you actually expect YASim to be the right tool for that job or is it
simply leftover from using the Cub layout as basis ? I might miss the
point but to my understanding it is expected be much easier to feed
real data into JSBSim.

Just being _very_ curious  ;-)
Martin.

Well right now there is no rascal specific dynamics model for any of our 
core fdm engines, so there's not really all that much to be curious 
about ...

We went out and flew our Rascal today to collect some more video and 
data.  I posted some pictures here:

We had very light / calm winds so I'm hoping the 
position/attitude/velocity data comes out pretty clean.


Curt.
