Thank  everyone for your answers. I'm not receiving any mail, I read 
everything though the mail archives and I'm not sure if this is going to land 
in the right thread, so if not, I apologize. I hope I solve this soon.

Unfortunately I have to write the software too, I would prefer to improve 
existing simulators. I have to, at least, model one aircarft.

Some UAV, and this is the one I could gather more information about:
http://www.nasa.gov/centers/dryden/news/FactSheets/FS-069-DFRC.html
http://www.scaled.com/projects/proteus.html
I have some information from Jane's too. Unfortunately I don't have access to 
Jane's UAV (separate volume), only general aircraft.

Of course :) Sometimes I'm not sure what's the terminology in English, so I 
invent...

I think I will go with DATCOM, but checking the results with other methods, 
and getting similar results, would make me more confident. Using X-Plane and 
using the results without knowing what's behind it would get me , hmm..., 
smashed while defending my project.

I've already read some of the references, and found them very interesting. I 
will check the Newsletter. 

Although I must write my own simulator (well, only the FDM) I will start by 
making a JSBSim model as soon as I can, it will help me to check my own 
results, and upload it to the flightgear project.
