Personally, I can hear it ok, but a volume control would be really nice. This is really simple to impliment too ... we do it already for the morse code audio idents.

Instructions on how to get the CVS version of the base archive are at http://rockfish.net/fg/.

I think I've found what causes the instabillity in the F-16 model. It looks like the axis systems and me don't get along quite well.

Is it possible ? I dunno, did you try flying it? Does it? It flies fine for me but exhibits some odd behavior at the fringes of the flight regime. Ground handling has some problems to... try land braking hard at just about any speed and you will cartwheel forward. I know it still has some difficulties, but it is a hell of a lot better compared to the previous version. Yes is shoudl take-off, but the lack of flaps requires it to stay langoner on the runway. If it doesn't work, try removing the old f16.xml file before updating. I'm still in the process of imrpving it.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Re: [Flightgear-cvslogs] Base CVS update:'FlightGear/FlightGear/Aircraft/c172'
> Does the R have a 40 deg flap detent? My understanding is that the 40 deg flap setting (over the whole family) is actually related to max gross weight. If you want the 40 deg then you will be limited to 2300 lb; if you make do with 30 deg ... you can have more. However, as the interior gets nicer, the avionics become more complete, you add long range tanks, a larger engine, retractable gear, etc etc ... you're adding empty weight, so that after a while 2300 lb is not enough. You're then _forced_ to eliminate the 40 deg setting to be able to fly. The last ten degrees _are_ mostly drag, but that's what you need (a) to get a steep final in rugged terrain (b) for fast descents in emergency management (c) for a relatively quick flare for short fields ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel

I'm also not so sure that we > have the fidelity that making that distinction implies. I recommend the split, although I'd tend to move the "P" back to "N". Analogy: Think of driving two cars - one has carb engine, the other fuel injected (you really care in winter) - one has ABS, the other does not (only matters if you brake hard) - one has sports suspension and the other regular (only for bad roads etc) In normal city traffic, you won't notice the difference. However, for emergency stuff, if you forget ... you'll probably die.
