![]() ![]() I've inserted "my" whole version (smoother, which of course is the old one modified). After this, the aircraft is more prone to spontaneously raise its nose before takeoff and it seems to me it's more stable in shift with the autopilot (greater moment of inertia around Y axis?) It seemed weird to me, and in fact I see no CG problem. deleted the negative ballast at the tail. But it works, and that's probably better. In fact, I've read such high effectiveness is a kind of cheat, maybe a trick to stabilize the aircraft or make iterations convergence possible. On this version (787V2-01 ), I've made the following modifications: Moreover, for landing, you have to keep strong thrust almost until touching down, otherwise you fall like a stone. Drag from flaps is way too strong: with full flaps (30 deg), you can't even hold an altitude at full thrust because the speed falls until stall. In NAV1 CDI Course, when seriously disturbed, the heading can go to roll oscillations which don't stop. It becomes temporarily crazy when you change flaps. ![]() It regulates well, holds its altitude, decides and reaches its targets (target-climb-rate, vertical-speed-fps, then altitude). In "Altitude Hold" mode, your autopilot reacts the right way, just a bit nervous. I've downloaded your 787V2, tested it and propose you some remarks and modifications. I'm going to polish up the 8/22 version independently from the main development for a Git and main page release. The Glideslope controller on the 787 was always kinda weird, with the sudden jumping from one end to the other in the ailerons. I see what you did to the autopilot-I may be including some of these values into the release version. Always the compromise between reactivity and smoothness. It works with your version, if you are interested, you can test it and maybe choose some parts at your preference. My autopilot is sometimes smoother than yours, particularly for the ILS approach (NAV1 CDI course and NAV1 Glideslope). The flight behaviour of both are close enough, and it's a very good point to have got rid of this pitch spazzing. I've compared it with the one of my link above ( ).įrom the FDM point of view, I had made less changes than you. I've downloaded your 787092710, it works well with my FG 2.0.0 config. Glad to see that this very interesting aircraft is still maintained and improved. Graphics card: 512 MB ATI Radeon HD 3870 HDĭany93 wrote:Thanks nickyivyca for your response.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who has done this but for those interested who cannot or do not want to make this kind of surgery, it can be downloaded from. ![]() I think I've also solved pitch instabilities (YASim FDM). I'm not a developer and can't "maintain" it, but at least I've made the autopilot work again under FlightGear 2.0.0, even ILS approach mode (NAV1 CDI course and NAV1 Glideslope). ![]() I had downloaded a more recent (sept 2009) model from Mediafire site via a link (not yet available) in this forum, but, since FG 200, the autopilot "failed to load" and "Heading" alone worked. It's a pity because I think it's one of the best airliners proposed in FlightGear, very complete with a rich clickable control panel and nice graphics. I've read somewhere in this forum that the Boeing 787-8 is not yet maintained, and the model available from the official FG website is out of date. ![]()
