Figured out how to close the loop!



Programs can interface with FlightGear through FlightGear's property tree. Very powerful.

http://wiki.flightgear.org/index.php/Property_Tree



If you run FlightGear with the --httpd= option, it will run a webserver on http://localhost: where you can browse the property tree and refresh the current values. Alternatively, in FlightGear you can type "/", and the property… Continue

I don't have the cash right now to buy a plane, ArduIMU, an auto pilot, and associated hardware. So, while I'm saving for the hardware, I want to play with the various algorithms out there in a simulation environment - to gain a deeper understanding and feel for it. I want to be able to code in C, so I can use the code directly in the hardware autopilot when I reach that point.



I want to use a flight dynamics model to generate sensor inputs to the autopilot (3 axis gyro, 3 axis… Continue
