Hi Todd,
unfortunately there is still no way to fly constant IAS without throttle
control. there is/was some code to fly constant IAS controlled by throttle you
should probably have look right here
http://vrhome.net/vassilis/category/paparazzi/
should be in the wiki as well
i had the same idea some time ago and wrote my own flight control to deal with
some new autopilot modes like IAS controlled by pitch
i did this right before they changed everything to modules but it is working
just fine
if someone is really interested to implement this right now i would be glad to
help
or just wait a few month until summer then i will probably have some more time
and i will try to integrate this stuff into the actual code
still think autonomous soaring is a good feature to implement
A question to the hole community
what about changing the autopilot modes to names that are used in real
aircrafts? although they might be a little bit longer it would be much easier
for newbies to get into this stuff
and what about some new modes?
hope that helps
Tobi
