Flight Dynamics



The standard test flight model flight dynamics are highly experimental. Instabilities are possible in various modes of flight.

Version 1.x and 2.1 flight dynamics were based on those provided for the Star Wars X-Wing model created by Chris Evans (dochris@pcnet.com, http://www.pcnet.com/~dochris/). This gives the vehicle a top speed over Mach 2 and short take-off and landing capabilities. More details are available at http://www.aiai.ed.ac.uk/~bat/GA/supercar-msfs-fltdyn-v2.html.

Version 2.2 (for FS98 and CFS) and version 3.x (for FS2000) introduced significantly enhanced flight dynamics deveoped by Shane Pickering with better low speed handling, more vertical take off and landing, etc.
