Is the CASA C-101 by John Bray still being developed?

Postby Odeliuus » Tue Mar 23, 2021 7:12 pm

I'm referring to this C-101, I'm not aware if there is another version:
https://github.com/John-Bray/C-101

I would like to contact the author to help in something to make this plane to the highest standard we can, I'm from Spain and I have seen this plane IRL many times and would love to have a better model in FlightGear.. not downplaying this version, it's great! But it could receive some love. I found a "bug" also, and Stuart helped me to solve it.. when applying rudder, the front wheel in the landing gear was visible on the sides of the fuselage. Now it doesn't. Thanks StuartC for that. I could send the code to John, and continue trying to help, and if someone wants to get onboard helping in this magnificient aircraft that would be awesome!!! The license also refers to Pavel Cueto, Fernando Espinosa as authors. If you see this I want to help you, please contact me :D

This is the code for the (correct) animation, it must be placed inside the CASA_C-101_common.xml file where it says "Tren de aterrizaje", which means landing gear:
Code: Select all
!-- Tren de aterrizaje -->

   <!-- Direccion -->
<animation>
   <type>rotate</type>
<condition>
<and>
<property>gear/gear/steering-norm</property>
<not>
<less-than>
<property>gear/gear/position-norm</property>
<value>1</value>
</less-than>
</not>
</and>
</condition>   
   <object-name>Rueda_DEL_01</object-name>
   <object-name>Rueda_DEL_02</object-name>
   <object-name>Tren_DEL_01</object-name>
   <object-name>Tren_DEL_02</object-name>
   <object-name>Tren_DEL_03</object-name>
   <object-name>Tren_DEL_04</object-name>

      </axis>

i would post it as an issue on the repo you linked... might be better if you forked it, fixed it, and then made a pull request back to the repo... then the work is already done and you get your name in the commits...
"You get more air close to the ground," said Angalo. "I read that in a book. You get lots of air low down, and not much when you go up."
"Why not?" said Gurder.
"Dunno. It's frightened of heights, I guess."
