PeacePuma Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 Hi guys, I have a question, what lines should I add / modify so that the KC-130 automatically extends the hoses when it reaches a certain height? for example, how does the kc-135 work? I checked the kc-135 data but did not apply the behavior. Greetings and thanks Quote
yakarov79 Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 this is from my KC-130s. Deploy values are set for refueling helos also...so you might want to adjust for you liking. But not sure if you can limit its use to a certain height. [RefuelDrogue] SystemType=HIGHLIFT_DEVICE DeploymentMethod=AUTOMATIC_MACH CD0=-0.0010 Setting[1].Angle=0.0 Setting[1].DeployValue=0.0 Setting[1].RetractValue=0.1 Setting[2].Angle=90.0 Setting[2].DeployValue=0.15 Setting[2].RetractValue=0.11 MaxDeflection=90.0 MinDeflection=0.0 ControlRate=0.5 AnimationID=10 1 Quote
Wrench Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 height is NOT adjustable -- usually only speed, but 99.8% of them are linked to gear animation . Gear goes up, drogues come out. ------------ since the KC-130 is using AUTOMATIC_MACH, try adjusting the deploy value, using the meters per second of oh, say, 160 knots. Retract value should be around 125 knots. See if that works 1 Quote
PeacePuma Posted January 21, 2021 Author Posted January 21, 2021 Thanks Jarek and Kevin, I will do the tests with the indications of both and I will tell you what the result is ... I promise some nice photos. Greetings! 2 Quote
