I'm not sure what you are talking about here.

From what I understand, Erik just put a new version of JSBSim in FlightGear CVS. Second, The trim function works good in JSBSim by itself, and I thought it had been working with FlightGear, too. So, no, the trim function is not necessarily a disaster "in JSBSim", but it may now be getting used improperly, or in a way that was not anticipated. So, please, more information is needed. Do you have a specific case? Third, the trim features in JSBSim itself are getting a complete makeover. Jon ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
