- Change DME to use local files rather than the pa24-250
- Create new yokes as separate model files
- Improve throttle, mixture and carb heat controls
- add scrollwheel support for throttle, mixture
- Use separate Cessna flaps indicator model.
This patch adds main gear rotations about the fuselage attach points that keep the wheels in contact with the ground as the compression increases and decreases. I also rotated the main fairings and wheels 4 degrees so the wheel axles are horizontal sitting on the ground. The left and right main gear struts, wheels, and fairings were adjusted to be mirrored (symetric) in the c172p.ac. I also increased the rpm boundary between the Propeller and Propeller.slow selects.
The attached patch adds "Hide yoke" to the c172p menu, adjusts the gear spring forces and damping to cause a more tail low attitude sitting on the ground, optimizes vertices and surfaces in c172p.ac, as well as cleaning up the tabs and indents in several xml files.
Patch goals:
1. Implement instrument and pannel lights controled by the nav-light switch.
2. Use Instruments-3d/vor which includes GS flag and filters for smooth movement of cdi and gs needles to and from parked position.
3. Adjust model and pilot view per the agreed to changes in Re: [Flightgear-devel] c172p pitch at cruise question, 12/06/2008 02:27 PM. These changes were never committed.
Changes deflection input variables to match nasal lowpass filter
output for cdi and gs needle deflections. I did a search of the
data/Aircraft to make sure this will not break other ac.
The zkv500 is now repaired (see attached patch) at least for turnpoint mode.
I'm quite sure there will have problem some problems with route management,
I haven't tested yet, but I'll do this week-end.
I've also fixed the screen refresh frequency, which is now more regular.
Added GS out of range flag to Instruments-3d/vor.
Century III upgrades
1. Implemented the two 20 sec checks for GS arm documented in the autopilot POH page 30.
2. Fixed bug that made GS capture not work if the ALT switch was turned off for a few moments to do a step-down approach.
