A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category FSX Other
Description: This package updates my VSTOL module in the Wilco HJJ Harrier to my latest development insights on how to implement VSTOL.
REQUIREMENTS:
=============
1. You have the latest official version of the Wilco HJJ (payware product) installed, and working properly on your FSX setup.
2. Intended for FSX-Accelleration (or FSX-GoldEdition).
But most probably works for FSX-SP2, FSX-SteamEdition and P3D too.
What this update adds/changes:
==============================
In general, considerable improvements in flightmodel for (V)(S)TOL:
- Full control of the flightmodel:
- In the air: when Nozzles are rotated > 10 degrees.
- On the ground: at any nozzle setting (when engine is running).
- Much better Rudder handling during STOL flight (no more hard crossover around 45 Knots)
- Less sensitive to pitch attitude changes during a hover (around the 6-degree pitchup attitude)
- Improved groundhandling on moving surfaces (like aircraft carriers).
- Implementation of the NozzleTrim function.
- Implementation of the Harrier WaterInjection function.
So max. VTOL weight is now dependant on WaterInjection, AND Altitude.
- Implementation of the groundeffect during VTOL.
Which includes a random "jitter" on pitch/roll/yaw/verticalspeed, simulating the instability of a Harrier in a near-ground hover.
- Proper influence of Vertical Wind (Turbulance) on the VTOL flightmodel.
- Implementation of "Viffing" (Vectoring nozzles In Forward Flight): rapid braking, by rotating the nozzles to max. (forward) position in normal flight.
- Improvement of the Autoflaps handling.
- Auto-ElevatorTrim setting, for Conventional/Short takeoffs.
- Improved audible Stall warning, via SmokeSystem var.
- Improved fuel dump.
- Added Airbrakes and Gear drag in flight (with nozzles > 10 degrees).
- As a gimmick: a fully-automated implementation of the famous Harrier Bow.
Fully documented; see included README.
Enjoy ...
