Hello everyone,

I am currently putting together an autonomous control system for an R/C =
helicopter and am hoping to simulate it first in flight gear (similar to =
what Curtis Olsen did with microgear). I'm not too concerned with making =
the model look good (at this point anyway), but I would like to model =
the flight dynamics fairly accurately.=20

I am a flightgear newbie, but a fairly experienced programmer, so I'm =
looking for an pointers (or better yet, a template from a previously =
modelled R/C heli) on how to get started.

Actually, even better would be if someone had contributed a trex 450 =
model, since that it what I am trying to fly!

Thanks for your time,

Tristen
