One of us looked at X-plane in the beginning but the physics are not right for a model and it was felt that it would be going backward. I’m the pilot the other two are the computer nerds it’s a pretty interesting team I understand the basics of what is wanted and as long as they keep it simple its not to hard to fly the data. They seem to think they can make it work. The idea is if the software can actually predict the flight envelope of a model. They feel they might be able to get the sim to do the same. Then if the sim and the model flew alike in real time with a real transmitter then there would be some very real potential there. The idea of course is to design a model, fly it out on the sim and correct any bad habits then build a prototype. As long as they want me as the pilot I’m in its interesting as hell all this flying around at the point of stall and not that high either they want to see the models reactions. Thanks for the input time to clean up the shop.
