FSX 'Touchdown' outputdata

[bstikkel]

Hello FSUIPC specialists,

Reason for my question is I have build a rather big homecockpit, mounted on car suspension, to make it able to move up and down at touchdown moments. I would like to make the cockpit up and down with a varable 'bump' when we land.

Mechanically it is not such a problem.

However, I need an output from FSX that does provide data about the downwardspeed with which the wheels touch the ground and - ofcourse - at what moment.

As far as I can see, FSUIPC does not provide these data. On the other hand, I cannot imagine these kind of data are nót provided by FSX

Anybody who can help me with this challenge ?

Greetings,

You've not looked far enough then. ;-)

Offset 0366 is the "on ground" flag -- monitor that, then, when on ground becomes true, offset 030C gives the touchdown V/S value.

Hi Peter,

First, thanks for your answer and my apologies for replying so late. I must have missed the reply-notice, or mayby I forgot to turn it on...

Great news it is possible.

I am not yet very experienced with this knowledge, but I should have read better, I see.

Are these flags given for all three wheels separatly ?

Thanks!

No, there's only the one flag saying "on ground" when true, not "on ground" when false.
