I find the 'new' helicopter much easier to fly. Even with mouse and keyboard, using auto-coordination for the tail, it's pretty well possible to do precise landings - because the helicopter really does what you expect him to do. BTW, This picture was taken just after the helicopter started slipping off the wing :-) http://foxtrot.mgras.net/bitmap/FGFS/BO105_01.jpg Cheers, Martin. -- Unix _IS_ user friendly - it's just selective about who its friends are ! -- - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Net FDM and Hit Detection
From: Curtis L. Olson snip With this mechanism, your own flight dynamics code can do the check for ground collision, your gear modeling code will know the local ground elevation (which can change as you taxi) and you can test yourself for a crash condition. This is the way it is done, but I was just wondering if it wouldn't be better to do it on the graphics side. Maybe it would be good idea to test 3 (or more) axes parallel to the aircraft trajectory for intersections with non-model polys. Isn't there code that does something like that, at least for the perpendicular to ground axis?

I think the above suggestion might be asking for trouble. Maybe a better way would be to make available terrain (or other object) information to the flight model and let the flight model do the physical interaction. Jon - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

Re: [Flightgear-devel] B52 around the earth flight

It took me around 40 hours and 6 air to air refueling from a KC135 flown by shavlir to make it. Only the first 3 aar were unsuccessful due to non matching and oscillating speeds between mp aircraft. The remaining 3 were perfect and lasted about 20 to 30 minutes to refuel about 3/4 of the tanks. FG handled very well under the circumstances, no noticeable memory leaks, but a few things did break down. (made for a more realistic flight ;-P) For some reasons the 2D panel lost its lighting (red) over Hawaii and I was never able to recover it (landed without instruments in a pitch black night) and the property tree had a few nervous breakdowns as well, would stop updating for a while...Other than that it was awesome. You can see the path taken on FG tracker at: http://fgfs.i-net.hu/modules/fgtracker/?FUNCT=FLIGHTFLIGHTID= 4015 You might have to zoom out a bit on google map to see the track. there is a corrupted data point in there so you can't see the ground speed. I'll ask KoverSrac to remove that point. Here are some air to air refueling at dawn over Guam: http://fgfs.i-net.hu/modules/xoopsgallery/view_album.php?set_a lbumName=album32 Regards, Julien Well done :) nice pics too LeeE - Using Tomcat but need to do more?
