Flap Movement??

Postby Dickert » Wed Aug 12, 2009 2:04 pm

Trying to clean up some of the outstanding issues with my microjet.  
The flap movement in GMax is quite distinct with a clear airspace between the leading edge slats and the wing, and also between each part of the double slotted flowler flaps.  Yet once the model is imported into Flight Sim and full flap applied, the flap movement is only part of what I animated.  Following the SDK, I used 100 frames to get from 0 to 100 percent deployed.  So am I missing something here?

Something that has been reiterated many times on this board: a picture is worth a thousand words.  Show us what it looks like in Gmax, and then what it looks like in the sim.  That will give a better idea of what the issue most likely is.

However, two things just occurred to me:

What are the flap settings in the cfg file?

What are the names and hierarchy in Gmax?
