Flight model

in file : sw/simulator/booz_flight_model.c

Motor dynamics is simulated. modelisation by a Riccati equation :

${\dot {\omega }}=-{\frac {1}{\tau }}\omega -K_{Q}\omega ^{2}+{\frac {K_{V}}{\tau }}V$

For flight dynamics, a hover point hypothesis is assumed, ie each rotor only produces a force normal to the rotor and a moment along the same axis, both proportional to the square of the prop rotational speed.

Display

can use flightgear as a 3D display

example command line :

fgfs --fdm=null --native-gui=socket,in,30,,5501,udp --aircraft=bo105

Associated command line options for the simulator : --fg_host and --fg_port

Interactive control

The radio control can be replaced by a joystick.

the joystick device can be specified with the --js_dev option
