    Dude, this is amazing, I signed in just to write you a thank you message for this awesome video! I am a biomedical engineering major and graduate in May, but I have my pilots license and will definitely be messing around with these programs.

      Thank you! I appreciate the kind comments.
      Please watch my other videos interfacing MATLAB and other engineering tools with FlightGear!

    Can you run the missile simulation horizontally to see if the fins have enough lift?

      so guys sry im new want to ask some thing at 9:56. said assumption that this cad file has no Mechanics its just rigid body has no life in it no flutter ,divergence ,control reversal no areoelastic effects ......no life in it .. the Question after this cad file added to Simulink it become no longer just Rigid file and become Areoelastic and has flutter , ,divergence ,control reversal does Simulink added life in it and it become real life ready for test ???

    Does FlightGear only accept .ac files? From what I've read, FlightGear supposedly is able to take in several different model files. If not, do you know about any free programs that can convert models to .ac? I greatly appreciate your videos, they've been a great help for me.

    • @VDEngineering

      No problem Sori,
      You can use AC3D, there should be a free version.
      My version of FlightGear only accepts AC files, however the newer versions may accept other file formats such as VRML.
      If not, I believe Blender also converts files into .ac

    I am using this template but it gives an error "invalid string position", I commented lines in order to just read the .ac file and .xml files but still same issue. Do you any root cause? I am using flight gear version 2020.3.18 which is latest stable version

    Thanks,but I tried to run your hl20 model in flightgear, but why didn't this model show up in flightgear?

    Hey there,
    Your videos are amazing. Can you please upload videos on basics of Aerospace blockset? It is quite hard to understand if someone has never used it or isn't aware of it's functionality. It will make the content more meaningful and close the gaps.
    Have a good day. And keep making such videos.

    Hi,
    Your videos are really cool, congratulations.
    I have an error message "invalid string position", do you know how to fix this?
    Thanks.

    where to download VRML? I am not getting any resource, can you share downloading link or that page link? it will be very helpful for me.

    so guys sry im new want to ask some thing at 9:56. said assumption that this cad file has no Mechanics its just rigid body has no life in it no flutter ,divergence ,control reversal no areoelastic effects ......no life in it .. the Question after this cad file added to Simulink it become no longer just Rigid file and become Areoelastic and has flutter , ,divergence ,control reversal does Simulink added life in it and it become real life ready for test ???

    hi, I like your work, my question is how plasma work, in the engine, if you have information, and you can help me?. thank you

    • @VDEngineering
      @VDEngineering  7 лет назад +1

      Plasma is only used on spacecraft electric propulsion thrusters.

    Thanks.It was very useful .Can make some tutorual about SITL simulation with different autopilots like Ardupilot and PX4 with simulators like gazebo or FG?
    There is no complete guide about doing stuff like that.
    Thanks

    Ac3d said "Importing VRML1 file FAILED" when I tried to open a vrml model. What can I do to solve this problem?

    • @FrozenHeart-tx6sr
      @FrozenHeart-tx6sr Год назад

      I solved this problem by exporting to .stl, after that I opened it in blender and exported to .ac. You need to install addon for blender to export to .ac

    Hi Sir!
    You did a great job, this vedio is really useful.
    I am a new learner for using this software, would it be possible for me to have the TEMPLATE ?
    Best regards !

    Thank you bro for your wonderful lectures. I have a doubt instead of creating in solidworks and importing to ac3d we can create the model using ac3d directly ?

    • @VDEngineering
      @VDEngineering  3 года назад +1

      Yes but it's much harder to

    • @chaitanya9032
      @chaitanya9032 3 года назад

      @@VDEngineering I am new to this, thanks for your response and for your Lectures bro they have been very helpful. Bro just one more doubt, for setting the centre of gravity of the model did you used xml or cad(ac3d or solidworks). If XML then can you share me some tutorials to learn it.

    Thanks, very interesting and useful video! At the beginning you showed a rocket model which would be very useful for me to visualise simulink output. Flightgear does't have any rocket models. Woul it be possible for you to share it with me? Best regards!

    have you tried AirSim (simulator built with Unity), I have tried to install it in Ubuntu but got drivers issues .. it seems great one for reinforcement learning.
