+RAVEN Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Anyway to get a landinglight to work on a fixed gear aircraft, It will work If I set "Retractable=TRUE" , but that creates a mess on landing if you forget to deploy the gear.
+Wrench Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) what I did on the P-26 is make the fixed tail skid retractable, with a very fast retraction time, and no sound (actually used the stock 3W "key2.wav" here's teh data ini statments: [TailGear] SystemType=LANDING_GEAR Retractable=TRUE DeployTime=0.0 AnimationID= DragArea=0.05 HideGearNode=FALSE ModelNodeName= InsideNodeName= ShockNodeName= ShockAnimationID=4 ShockStroke=0.2 SpringFactor=1.0 DampingFactor=2.0 WheelNodeName=TailWheel RotationAxis=Z-AXIS ReverseModelOrientation=FALSE RollingRadius=0.30 CastoringWheel=FALSE CastoringNodeName= Steerable=TRUE MaxSteeringSpeed=50.15 Locking=TRUE MaxSteeringAngle=-45.0 InputName=YAW_CONTROL ControlRate=1.0 HasBrakes=FALSE RollingCoefficient=0.05 MaxDeploySpeed=97.2 Edited January 15, 2013 by Wrench
+RAVEN Posted January 15, 2013 Author Posted January 15, 2013 I set up my Tailgear as Retractable=TRUE and landed with it retracted, Worked just fine, and with the MaxdeploySpeed set high I now have a switch for the landing light. Thanks 1
