* Modify the autopilot (PID controller) code so that maneuvers are not initiated too rapidly (abrupfly), currently maneuvers such as turns are executed pretty violently in most faster aircraft (i.e. c310, 737), the bank angle exceeds frequently a standard turn rate of 3°/sec (likewise for maneuvers like climbs or descents, where the output is apparently also not reduced early enough in anticipation of reaching the target altitude) (note, that this problem has been discussed on the JSBsim mailing list [http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=1cc3f5360812280747o5e099a17o1bde854445995a40%40mail.gmail.com&forum_name=jsbsim-devel]) | * Modify the autopilot (PID controller) code so that maneuvers are not initiated too rapidly (abrupfly), currently maneuvers such as turns are executed pretty violently in most faster aircraft (i.e. c310, 737), the bank angle exceeds frequently a standard turn rate of 3°/sec (likewise for maneuvers like climbs or descents, where the output is apparently also not reduced early enough in anticipation of reaching the target altitude) (note, that this problem has been discussed on the JSBsim mailing list [http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=1cc3f5360812280747o5e099a17o1bde854445995a40%40mail.gmail.com&forum_name=jsbsim-devel]) | ||
* add additional pitch mode to autopilot dialog for climb/descent gradients, so that users can specify a gradient that is automatically maintained (i.e. a glidepath) | |||
