Propeller pitch control with funky trees

4,869 Mikey101234  3.4 years ago

Quick question, is there a possibility that you can make a funky trees input that will go into the pitch angle of the propeller so that once you reach a certain speed the pitch is neutral but when the speed of the aircraft is low, it will pitch at a certain angle to achieve the fastest speed as fast as possible, im asking this because I am working on a BF-109(that won’t have real gear or flight characteristics, this is just for testing purposes

    @edensk thanks but the thing is my propeller spins too fast and I know that there is a thing in xml for propeller engines that allows you to control how fast the propeller can spin before it overevs, what is that thing ?

    yes, try clamp01(1-pow(IAS/x,2)), where x is the speed in m/s at which the pitch will be neutral
