+ The wing compilation step was accidentally omitting regions that lie
between the tips and the first/last control object. That's a real
problem for wings that contain no controls, and a significant issue
for those that contain only a few. I'm stunned that this went
undetected for so long.
+ The Surface::flapLift() function was oddly returning 1.0 Newtons as
a minimum, instead of zero.
are sharp, as intended. These were are never seen in practice; I
found the problem while looking at 360 degree lift curve graphs
looking for discontinuities.
isn't well-constrained by the solution process is the drag-vs-aoa curve.
The default value that YASim picked was very steep, and resulted in most
of the jets flying their approaches *way* behind the power curve. This
changes the default to be more forgiving, and adds an "idrag" tunable
to the configuration file for tweakers.
Also, change the default gear springiness to be less stiff.
Dynamics (Sim)ulator. Basically, this is a rough, first cut of a "different
take" on FDM design. It's intended to be very simple to use,
producing reasonable results for aircraft of all sorts and sizes,
while maintaining simulation plausibility even in odd flight
conditions like spins and aerobatics. It's at the point now where one
can actually fly the planes around.
