* [[JSBSim Aerodynamics|Aerodynamics]] - JSBSim's aerodyamics are a blank slate. It is entirely up to the vehicle author to use valid formulas. The aerodynamic force is divided into Lift, Drag, and Side. You can also create Roll, Pitch and Yaw moments. In addition, if the aerodynamic force reference point is not coincident to the CoG the forces will create a hidden moment. | * [[JSBSim Aerodynamics|Aerodynamics]] - JSBSim's aerodyamics are a blank slate.
