Hello!
I'm writing a fictional book and want to create a simulation of a dragon as a promotional material (that dragon plays a central role in the book).
In other words I'd like to build a FlightGear compatible aircraft, which
a) looks like a dragon,
b) has the flight dynamics of a Cessna 172 or similar aircraft and
c) (optionally) custom controls (which do the same thing like in Cessna, but look differently).
What tutorials can I read to get a basic understanding, of how to do parts a) and c), and how to re-use the existing flight dynamics model (item b above) ?
Thanks in advance
