Hi to all

I need to visually model an airship with 4 engine nacelles for an University Project.

The difficulty: some of the engines  have to be tilted....
The configuration:
"Normal" Airship with nacelle under it.

1 engine at the end of the airship, pointing in flight direction, should be able to tilt 90 degrees downward.

1 engine at the end of the airship, pointed 90 degrees to the right from flight direction, fixed.

2 engines beside the nacelle under the airship, both able to tilt up and down.

Sounds strange, I know.
And if this is possible to model, is it possible to control all tilt-processes differently via FSUIPC?

I have experience in X-plane, ut it does not work there this way...

Would be really helpful if anyone could tell me, if all (or some of it) is possible. If not, I have to look for a solution somewhere else...

Sincerely
Jens Klaubert

Hi Dan,

so I could model 4 different props and lets say tilt two by using the flaps? That was ok.

The FLightmodel itself is running in Matlab/simulink and the data is exchanged by an UDP-interface and FSUIPC.

If you mean, what Program I use for modelling the visual airship itself, i would say gmax.
If you know something better, please let me know.

Jens
