So far, I've changed the units and the cube_test example in falcon_test_cli, though now the question of forces comes up. I'm honestly not sure what units we'd been sending the kinematics setForces function so far, as I'd never really done any tests with it outside of simple proportional loops. Now is probably a good time for me to sit down, document, and actually understand whats happening in those classes. I'll probably also go ahead and implement a pregenerated header based lookup table to save us on the kinematics initialization time (on platforms where -ffast-math doesn't make that trivial). Kyle |
