Atlantine Aircraft Industries M.03N Griffin

55.3k Beefy  3.1 years ago

TN #180, 215th Artifex Ace Squadron, 201st Carrier Fleet, Atlantine Navy

The Griffin is an artificially stabilized canard-delta wing multirole fighter, designed for the mission profiles of the Atlantine Navy.

The PID-based fly by Funky Trees system allows the Griffin to operate at +45° AoA with ample control. It has no flaps, because the trim is more than enough to change the aircraft's attitude.

Controls:

AG4 - Arresting Hook
AG5 - Raise Catapult Bar
Trim - Trim

Specifications:

Powerplant:

General Electric F404, 17,000 lbf

Fuel Capacity:

510 gallons

Significant Speeds

Takeoff speed: 150 knots
Top speed: 800 knots TAS #35,000 ft
Max landing speed: 180 knots
Min landing speed: 130 knots

Editor's note: I don't know about you and your devices, but the canards may seem to spazz out. This is not intentional, yet this does not ruin the aircraft's performance. I may have set the D gain too high. Anyway, enjoy.

Happy Flying!

    I actually just tried doing PID when I realized that (-AngleOfAttack) is a proportional function and rate(-AngleOfAttack)is a derivative function. Tuning is very different though.

    Nice PID, it completely smooth out the controls.
    I reduced the speed of rotators in the canard and it reduce the "spazz out" by a significant amount.
    But I still don't know how to get rid of that completely.

    Hey can you tell me the logic behind your PID system? I was very interested in his stuff but I haven’t been able to fully understand it
