:''The FDM is the mathematical model that controls the physics of flight within the simulator. The physical 3D aircraft model has nothing to do with flight dynamics-- in essence it's just a picture to look at. It's the FDM that dictates how the model flies.'' | :''The FDM is the mathematical model that controls the physics of flight within the simulator.
