Re: [Jsbsim-users] Canard aircraft

[<da...@ho...>]

Steve,

 

No, I haven’t started anything towards that end, like a github or sourceforge. I support an airplane design program called Datcom that is used for preliminary design of aircraft. One of my users built a model for the Long EZ, and asked for my help. She was unable to get it flying in JSBSim, and I’ve never had anyone do a canard airplane in Datcom, so I’ve always been interested in seeing one done. I just haven’t cared enough to do it myself. She made some mistakes, and Datcom has a couple minor errors in it for canard aircraft. I’m digging through them, but I just can’t seem to get the Long EZ model to fly in JSBSim. I was hoping to look at another model that was flying, to try to pinpoint where I am having problems.

 

If you have a model flying in JSBSim but are in need of some more refined aero coefficients, she might be willing to share her model towards the common good. I wouldn’t release her model without her approval, but would be happy to look your model over if you have one flying, and of course not share it with her unless you give me the oka.

I also had been tossing around doing the Long-EZ. i would love to be updated on how your project is coming along. Bill do you have anything started on github or souceforge?

Well, it’s been pretty quiet here lately….

 

So, has anyone done a canard configuration aircraft in JSBSim?  I’ve been asked to help someone with a Long-EZ. Just wondered if I was in for anything exciting.

 

Thanks,

Bill
