Re: [Flightgear-devel] Re : Windturbines facing in wrong wind direction

[Curtis O. <cur...@gm...>]

Hi Martin and Olivier,

I thought that windturbine orientation was correct in the past -- so please
use due diligence to identify if the problem is just a misorientaiton of
the base model, or if one of the components of the wind vector was reversed
(or the code that takes the wind(east) and wind(north) components and
derives the heading is correct.)

If only east/west component is reversed, I don't think changing the base
model orientation will actually fix the problem for all wind directions.

Regards,

Curt.
