Thanks for your reply, All I want to do is just send the commands to a FlightGear instance over network with UDP, at the same time listening the properties of the aircraft over network by using the same protocol. In other words, I want to implement an external control mechanism.
I tested to see whether this is likely to work or not, I started a master which would send current properties with generic socket output, and I started a slave which would get the properties. But this is wrong I think, because I must send controls to the slave, not the properties. Anyway, I started the instances with the following commands: (master) fgfs --generic=socket,out,1000,127.0.0.1,7755,udp,udptest (slave) fgfs --generic=socket,in,1000,127.0.0.1,7755,udp,udptest My intention is not actually do it the master-slave way, but with an external monitor-and-control system. Thanks for your attention and sorry for poor info.
