Ladies and Gents, here is the base set I have for Gas Turbine Engines and Internal Combustion Engines.

Are there any bits of data that someone would like to be able to monitor which are not already present?

Notes:

- Engine 1 section lets you look at inner workings of a single propulsive unit; Aircraft section lets you look at everything summed together (Engine 1 + Engine 2 +, etc).

- For those not familiar with the nomenclature; q, p, and r represent pitch rate, roll rate, and yaw rate respectively.

- Net thrust measurements are calculated via Newton's second, so they include all force inducing bodies and systems.

- Endurance will be added to the GT set, and yes I saw the net T/W ratio is labeled as lbF when it's a unitless quantity.
 
I have just the use for those !, do they come in different colors ?, say white or red text, would have to see what they look like in the sim but imagine green might wash out in bright skies ?.

Best

Michael
 
You're absolutely right, the green can become washed on on a bright blue day. And yes you can change the display color, it's defined by hex color codes of bbggrr.
 
My apologies, a new job taking up all kinds of time. Yes, they are ready to go..but have no documentation at the moment. At the very worst, I'll have them out by the year's end. Pam, they work via simvars, so all you're seeing are raw simulation variables used by FSX (some with, some without mathematical manipulation).
