Dear Sir or Madam


I am Pui Lau and currently modeling SpitfireVb over Simulink model. However, when I launched FlightGear, the wing of the spitfire was bent up. I tried different commands that on the common command session. What should I do so that the wing is able to expand.


The following attachment is the photo of the spitfireVb.


Regards,

Pui Lau

Looking at the configuration you should set controls/flight/wing-fold to
0 for example by specifying

--prop:bool:/controls/flight/wing-fold=false

Dear Mr Hofman

This is what I have set in my spifireVb.xml file:

<control-input axis="controls/flight/wing-fold=false"
control="SPOILER"/>
<control-output control="SPOILER"
prop="/surface-positions/wing-fold-pos-norm=false"/>
<control-speed control="SPOILER"
However, the wing still folded. I looked at the help>aircraft help>Crtl-F , this command is for toggle wing fold, but it does not work. Also, the engine was not started when I simulate the aircraft (even the start button doesn't give any response).

Regards,
Pui Lau
