Question about FM modding...

[+Coupi]

Hello,

 

I would like to work about flight model data...

 

However I don't know how to begin this (difficult) process!

 

What are the starting point (or points) and the best way to work (different steps)?

 

Is there a glossary?

 

Best regards,

 

Coupi.

I keep these two pages as reference material. They are very useful. Look for the posts by Fubar512:

http://combatace.com/topic/45050-higher-turn-rate-how-to/

 

For me, understanding how CD0, CDL, CLA, and CMQ work are very important. Changes to CDL in the outer wing produce a more noticeable effect than they do in the inner wing.

 

Incremental changes to these parameters (critical: only one at a time), then several test flights, can teach how these parameters affect flight.
