4b07041d15 Recalibrated to a more realistic range. Right now, JSBSim seems to be
outputting values that are far too high, but that can be fixed.

c3b839754d Reduced maximum RPM to 2400, in line with recent C182 models. Cruise
performance seems about right now.

dbc256ce7a New engine and propeller model for the Cessna 182S, and more tweaks to
the propeller model for the Cessna 172R.

80b83ef603 Started new C182 panel with propeller knob and different-coloured
background.  It needs trim wheels (including rudder trim), etc. etc.,
and a different number plate.  Also modified 182 model to use a
different engine.

f9829eba75 Replaced old materials file with materials.xml, using the regular
property-file format.  This new format will simplify extensions later
on (including crash detection on forest and water surfaces, etc.).
There is also a DTD file for anyone with an XML editor.

632ac25426 Starting a new instrument, Bendix/King KT 76C Class 1A transponder.
This is a typical transponder for a Cessna 172R.

So far, only the background exists, but it's useful for filling in the
empty slot on the panel.

8a303e3a83 Edited to avoid infinite thrust in high-speed situations. 2001-12-21 12:50:19 +00:00
david
bf3fcc2f83 Yet another propeller model -- this one is custom-tweaked to allow the
C172R to hit some published performance numbers (including 122kt
cruise at 80% power, 8000ft ASL when the engine is leaned for
performance).  This will be replaced with a more accurate model when
we have data available.

3390000b98 JSBSim change: reduced Ixx from 5 to 1.8, based on a 1.67 Ixx for a
two-blade aluminum prop (provided to Jon by Hartzell) + 10% for the
engine (at Jon's suggestion).

0de7485668 JSBSim mod: made sure that propellers can go into negative thrust at
all pitch settings.

2c2238c296 Added keybindings for selecting a current engine, for changing magneto
position, and for engaging the starter.  Here's how it works:

1. To select an engine, use '!' (shift-1) for engine 1, '@' (shift-2)
   for engine 2, '#' (shift-3) for engine 3, '$' (shift-4) for engine
   4, or '~' to select all engines.  These bindings set the bool
   properties /sim/input/selected/engine[0],
   /sim/input/selected/engine[1], etc.

2. To decrease the magneto for the selected engine(s), use '{'.

3. To increase the magneto for the selected engine(s), use '}'.

4. To engage the starter for the selected engine(s), use SPACE.

Eventually, I'll extend this so that the throttle uses the selected
engine as well, and will perhaps even support engine selection in the
joystick bindings.  Right now, only engine 1 (engines[0]) is selected
by default.

6e8657bb49 Added keybindings for rudder trim on the Cessna 182 and Cessna 310:
'<' to decrease and '>' to increase.  Rudder trim on the Cessna 172 is
static, and has to be set before the flight using the
/controls/rudder-trim property.

e78dc6f7d6 Added a Cessna 182 model, based on Tony's Cessna 172 but with an IO470
engine.  I've also used information from Roskam where available, so
many of the minor coefficients are a little different at higher alpha.
