Targetware: Flight Model Development


Targetware ACM File Guide

PART REFERENCE: Gear

max_steer_angle = angle in degrees, if wheel is steerable, otherwise set to 0 (negative for nose wheel response)
brake_friction = a value between 0 and 1
brake_response = left or right (for differential braking)
radius = meters
equiv_drag_area = area in square meters (gear doors, open wheel well), a value of 0.2 is a good starting point
deploy_rate = degrees per second
num_notches = usually only 2 (up and down)
extend = min, max (airspeeds between which the gear can be extended, measured in m/s)
retract = min, max (airspeeds between which the gear can be retracted, measured in m/s)
angle = retracted angle, extended angle (in degrees)

tire_sound = path to sound file
sound = path to sound file
overspeed_sound = path to sound file
