016cd935ef Updates from David Megginson:
I've done some substantial reengineering of the 2D panel: except for the
radios, the whole panel is built from a large table now.  I'd be
grateful if you could add these changes to the main distribution.

Since I always like to provide some eye-candy with my updates, I've
fixed the ADF gauge to be more usable by slimming the needle and adding
markings every 45 deg (you'll need to use the attached textures).

9835072241 From Tony Peden:
This set of changes cleans up my previous ones quite a bit:
[tony@valkyrie FlightGear]$ tar -ztf tp_changes.tgz
src/Controls/controls.cxx
src/Controls/controls.hxx
src/FDM/JSBsim.cxx
src/Main/fg_init.cxx
src/Main/options.cxx
src/Main/options.hxx
src/Joystick/joystick.cxx

controls.[ch]xx:  removed the trimmed_throttle stuff.  This undoes the
                  changes I submitted last time.

JSBsim.cxx:       updates for the removal of the trimmed_throttle stuff

fg_init.cxx:      removed the autothrottle logic.  The autothrottle is now
off
                  by default.

options.[ch]xx:   Sets trim_mode to false by default.  It is enabled only
                  when --notrim is not used and JSBsim is the FDM.

joystick.cxx:     Added logic for syncing the throttle lever.  This is
                  only enabled when trim_mode is enabled.   The way I
                  did it is, I hope, a good way of going about it.

I tested:
fgfs --fdm=larcsim
fgfs --fdm=jsb --aircraft=c172 --vc=100 --altitude=500
fgfs --notrim --fdm=jsb --aircraft=c172 --vc=100 --altitude=500

All work as intended, at least for me.

Make sure your joystick is calibrated and give:
fgfs --fdm=jsb --aircraft=c172 --vc=100 --altitude=500
a try, I think you just might be impressed.

I am. ;-)

c4a1cc047e Updates from the Jon and Tony show.
Tony submitted:

JSBsim:
Added trimming routine, it is longitudinal & in-air only at this point
Added support for taking wind & weather data from external source
Added support for flaps.
Added independently settable pitch trim
Added alphamin and max to config file, stall modeling and warning to
follow

c172.cfg:
Flaps!
Adjusted Cmo, model should be speed stable now

FG:
Hooked up Christian's weather code, should be using it soon.
Hooked up the trimming routine.  Note that the X-15 will not trim.
  This is not a model or trimming routine deficiency, just the
  nature of the X-15
The trimming routine sets the pitch trim and and throttle at startup.
The throttle is set using Norman's code for the autothrottle so the
autothrottle is on by default.  --notrim will turn it off.
Added --vc, --mach, and --notrim switches
      (vc is airspeed in knots)
uBody, vBody, and wBody are still supported, last one entered
on the command line counts, i.e. you can set vc or mach or u,v,
and w but any combination will be ignored.

9dc5c9ca22 Instrument panel updates from David Megginson.
- the panel uses much, much less texture memory, and draws much
  faster, at least on my hardware

- there is a wet (magnetic) compass at the top of the panel

- the gyro compass shows true heading again, but don't get used to it:
  we're going to set it up to drift soon

- there are TO/FROM flags on NAV1 and NAV2 (but no GS flag yet)

- the ADF looks a little more realistic (if you can forgive the ugly
  needle)

- when the HUD is not open, the framerate is moved to the right side
  of the screen so that it won't be obscured by the mag compass

7863c607bf Heading bug (and bfi) now deals with magnetic compass heading rather than
true heading.  Internally, the sim (and the autopilot) still runs off of
true heading.
