Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Home coordinates for mutirotor simulation

[Felix Ruess]

Hi Heinrich,

unfortunately JSBSim uses geocentric and not geodetic coordinates (as the comment in reset00.xml says).

Cheers, Felix

Hi,
it is a little bit complex.
For the reset.xml i had to set the latitude  52.77373  to get  52.958569 in the GCS.
Are there different co-ordinate system for simulation  and in GCS ?
If i set the true co-ordinate i am about 30km more north.

You can also change the lat0 and lon0 attributes in the flight plan xml file.

Unfortunately not (yet). NPS currently doesn't parse the flight plan to set the initial location in JSBSim, it just uses the xml file that sets the initial conditions of the FDM.
