While YASim is a very good fdm, imo (and I've done a few in my time), it isn't suited to accurately portraying a glider because the 'cruise' definitions don't apply. The cruise section assumes level flight and needs to know the power required to maintain that level flight for it to work correct

Hi, At first thanks for uploading and correcting the error. How is the behaviour of a glider in flight? If YASim is a good fdm, it should simulate the behaviour with the right data correct. I see more problems in the simulating of the enviroment like thermals, turbulences, wind etc Greeting

Hi, Today I finished a first version of an ASK 21 Glider. It's a very wellknown glider, over 800s are built. There are still a lot of things to do: some instruments are missing, the pilots are missing and there is a some artefacts on the canopy ( in OSG is much nicer!). The YASim-FDM is lacking
