# Purpose of this routine:
|
||
|
# ------------------------
|
||
|
#
|
||
|
# - Create visible winch- and towropes for gliders and towplanes
|
||
|
# - Support of aerotowing and winch for JSBSim-aircrafts (glider and towplanes)
|
||
|
#
|
||
|
# This routine is very similar to /FDM/YASim/Hitch.cpp
|
||
|
# Aerotowing is fully compatible to the YASim functionality.
|
||
|
# This means that YASim-gliders could be towed by JSBSim-aircrafts and vice versa.
|
||
|
# Setup-instructions with copy and paste examples are given below:
|
||
|
#

|
# Setup of visible winch/towropes for Yasim-aircrafts:
|
||
|
# ----------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
#
|
||
|
# YASim-aircrafts with winch/aerotowing functionality should work out of the box.
|
||
|
# Optional you can customize the rope-diameter by adding the following to "your_aircraft-set.xml":
|
||
|
# </sim>
|
||
|
# <hitches>
|
||
|
# <aerotow>
|
||
|
# <rope>
|
||
|
# <rope-diameter-mm type ="float">10</rope-diameter-mm>
|
||
|
# </rope>
|
||
|
# </aerotow>
|
||
|
# <winch>
|
||
|
# <rope>
|
||
|
# <rope-diameter-mm type ="float">20</rope-diameter-mm>
|
||
|
# </rope>
|
||
|
# </winch>
|
||
|
# </hitches>
|
||
|
# </sim>
|
||
|
#

# 1. Define a hitch in the JSBSim-File. Coordinates according to JSBSims structural frame of reference
|

|
||
|
# coordinates don't appear in the property tree. You can only check them with test flights!
|
||
|
# The visible towrope is NOT an indicator of correct settings!
|
||
|
# Unit must be "LBS", frame must be "BODY". The force name is arbitrary but MUST end with "_x", "_y","_z", respectively.

|
#<sim>
|
||
|
# <hitches>
|
||
|
# <aerotow>
|
||
|
# <basename_force_jsbsim type="string">hitch</basename_force_jsbsim>

# IMPORTANT:
|
||
|
# JSBSim doesn't provide the hitch coordinates in the property tree. Hence you must set them again to get a
|
||
|
# visible towrope (local-pos-x/y/z). Unfortunately the coordinate systems are different. Here the coordinates
|
||
|
# for the "YASim-System" are needed (x points to the nose, y points to the left wing, z points upwards).
|
||
|
# If you see the rope at the expected position "local-pos-x/y/z" are correct.
|
||
|
#
|
||
|
# "force-is-calculated-by-other" should be "false" for gliders and "true" for towplanes.
|
||
|
# "mp-auto-connect-period" is only needed for towplanes and should be "1".
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
