It might be better to start with another UAV model than to modify the X-15. I'll look
around - I think we have a much more appropriate model for you to start out with. I know
that someone else has UAV stuff with JSBSim, there's a paper written about it, but I can't
remember offhand where it is. I'll ask on teh JSBSim list.
