I am trying to get weights and inertias using Simconnect.

 

The following snippet results in the correct total weight but zero for the MOI.

 

But, I get the correct empty weight if I replace "Total Weight Pitch MOI" by "Empty Weight" and "Slugs per feet squared" by "Pounds" in the second call while making no other changes whatsoever to the the remainder of the code.

 

Any ideas what's wrong with the call?

 

 

 

Code:

SimConnect_AddToDataDefinition(hSimConnect,

DATA_INERTIA_DATA,

"Total Weight",

"Pounds");

 

SimConnect_AddToDataDefinition(hSimConnect,

DATA_INERTIA_DATA,

"Total Weight Pitch MOI",

"Slugs per feet squared");

the solution is to use "Slugs feet squared"
