Beagle Pup experiment

[IAHM-COL]

OK..... I'm confused, it so doesn't sound like my plane.

I'll try make a video sometime.

I'm not sure on the real beagle pup that there is aileron trim.... I think this is just used with FG for AP....

[bomber]

Oh if you're making a video I'd like to do the same, can you help with software ?

[IAHM-COL]

linux only on this side. I will record with ffmpeg.
and use ffmpeg again to transcode.

@Israel it seems like you're trying to put me under pressure to release my FDM as GPL now. That's one of the reasons why I didn't want to get into licencing discussions - but mainly because I want to keep the thread relevant to the topic and not waffling off on some sort of never ending discussion of licences and copyrights. If you want to discuss this I can start a new topic. I've been clear from the outset that my model is my copyright and I don't want it distributed.

Anyway I've taken your comment as notice of copyright infringement, for which I apologise, and I've removed all of the infringing files from my site and put up a new archive that is just my FDM. I think Simon has given me permission to use and distribute his engine / propeller so they are now in a separate archive. My FDM will now be a direct replacement for pup100.xml which is a bit less convenient for testing.

I don't push you anywhere.
If you are going to release an all rights reserved material do it.
But hopefully stick to your guns and only use material you own an can license as such

Using CC share alike material is dubious. That you have bomber's blessing. Good for you. But why is Simon Marley not in your copyright announcement as a shared author then?

One thing is not entering licensing discussions and do everything right. Other thing, a completely one is avoid the discussions while doing shitty stuff.

On the other hand if you were to make it free software (I dont care, GPL CC CC-SA, or whatever) I can download and test and compare. (yet more likely also push to FGMEMBERS or FGMEMBERS-NON GPL as well) so if that's what you are shielding, then your safe path is do it All rights reserved, as you are now.

Propietary software? Nah. I dont use that.

I've already taken down and removed all of the material that you speak of. Simon has given permission to use and distribute his Engines and Propeller so those are separately available (if I'm wrong about this Simon can tell me and I'll take those down). In the FDM Simon is credited. On the splash screen he wasn't but that did say "Aerodynamics Copyright". Anyway the splash screen is gone now.

I don't want my FDM distributed as it is; whether on FGM, FGM NON-GPL, FGAddon, or anywhere really. It's not a finished model and it's not good enough to be distributed widely. All of my previous FG stuff has been GPL because I believe in the spirit of free software.

I'm not doing this experiment to make a new pup aerodynamics model - it's to see if we can develop a way of working together to find a new way of building aerodynamic models. If you or anyone chooses not to participate because of the licence then that's a loss to the project.

[IAHM-COL]

don't worry .
I will test free software material.

Back to real business, bomber


I had not Made a video yet cause I'll try to out rule the possibility that my joystick calibration could be to blame in the tendency to climb and roll I see when I leave this little dog of yours alone.

Could the taxiing problem be one of CG?
