Elevator/stabilator limits

Postby brettt777 » Mon Aug 04, 2008 7:25 am

What, if any, setting in the aircraft.cfg or whatever file can be adjusted to give the control surfaces more movement, i.e., they physicaly and graphically move farther? Can they be adjusted so they move farther up and down or is that a function of the model (.mdl file) itself?

I am not at home so I do not have a aircraft.cfg file handy, but if you look you will see a section called "flaps".  You can compare different aircraft.cfg files and get an idea of what means what.  I know that I took one file that the flaps only had two positions and I added a third.
