August 8, 200520 yr Commercial Member Some of the new models feature wings that react to turbulence.How are they detecting if the plane is being hit by actual turbulence at any given moment in time (versus being in a layer that has the potential to contain turbulence, which is something I believe FSUIPC allows you to determine).Bryan B.

August 9, 200520 yr Hey Bryan, it all goes on g-forces as far as I know:P Small increases make the wing flex up, decreases, flex down. Combind with some code so they flex up to a set amount as the plane speeds up, you get a nice flexy wing:D
August 9, 200520 yr Commercial Member Thank you!It never occured to me to use G force to measure turbulence.Cheers,Bryan B. York FS2Crew Web Site / FS2Crew Facebook Page / FS2Crew Discord
