Almost all the functionality of the Perspective is implemented.
GCU Keyboard needed a change in FG1000 and canvas.PFD to support keypresses. I've sent a patch to Stuart who said it will be on "next" shortly. Adding waypoints using the keyboard instead of the damned FMS is wonderful!
@D-ECHO: Stuart asked me If it was possible to add the GCU in FG1000, but I'll need to extract the 3D model from the interior, which was made by you. ¿Are you alright with that?
Still struggling with the FDM. I've uploaded the last attempt to the github repo (
https://github.com/bartacruz/SR22T) with hopes that somebody will look at it and point me in the right direction.
Adding the turbo, makes the engine go and mantain 36.5" MP but the speeds are not wright. The plane climbs like a rocket, 2000+ FPM at ~190kts
I've fiddled with volumetric-eficiency, and bsfc and boost-loss-factor, but since I couldn't find real data for the engine, it's all trial-and-error....
Here's my last approach:
- Code: Select all
<piston_engine name="TSIO-550K">
<minmp unit="INHG"> 10.0 </minmp>
<maxmp unit="INHG"> 29.5 </maxmp>
<displacement unit="IN3"> 550 </displacement>
<maxhp> 315.00 </maxhp>
<cycles> 4.0 </cycles>
<idlerpm> 700.0 </idlerpm>
<maxrpm> 2500.0 </maxrpm>
<sparkfaildrop> 0.1 </sparkfaildrop>
<man-press-lag> 0.1 </man-press-lag>
<static-friction unit="HP"> 1.57 </static-friction>
<starter-torque> 252.00 </starter-torque>
<starter-rpm> 1400 </starter-rpm>
<stroke unit="IN"> 4.25 </stroke>
<bore unit="IN"> 5.25 </bore>
<cylinders> 6.0 </cylinders>
<compression-ratio> 7.5 </compression-ratio>
<volumetric-efficiency> 1.05 </volumetric-efficiency>
<bsfc unit="LBS/HP*HR"> 0.5683 </bsfc> <!--18.3 gallons per hour at 85% power = 113.46 lbs (AVGAS) per hour at 267.75 hp-->
<air-intake-impedance-factor>0.18</air-intake-impedance-factor>
<ram-air-factor>0.1</ram-air-factor>
<numboostspeeds>1</numboostspeeds>
<boostoverride>0</boostoverride>
<boost-loss-factor>1.2</boost-loss-factor>
<ratedboost1 unit="INHG">6.58</ratedboost1>
<ratedpower1>315</ratedpower1>
<ratedaltitude1>18000</ratedaltitude1>
<ratedrpm1>2500</ratedrpm1>
</piston_engine>
Any pointers will be welcomed.
Cheers,
Barta
