A Few Questions

[SasquatchM]

This is about wings in particular.

1)Does the shape of the model affect lift and performance in game?

2) does the shape / size of the model affect lift or is it just the cfg?

3) I looked at some of the cfgs in the older C7 packs, and realized that I had no idea what some of the stuff meant.

// --- standard part parameters ---

mass = 0.01

dragModelType = override

maximum_drag = 0.02

minimum_drag = 0.02

angularDrag = 5 <---- what is this?

crashTolerance = 12

maxTemp = 3400

explosionPotential = 0.1

fuelCrossFeed = True

// --- winglet parameters ---

// dragCoeff will override the maximum_drag value

dragCoeff = 0.4 <--------------????

deflectionLiftCoeff = 2.8 <---------------???

any help would be greatly appreciated.

1) I think no.

2) The cfg only (i think)

3)deflectionliftcoeff is the liftrating

I stumbled upon the wiki that has the modeling guidelines, and it helped clear up a lot of stuff for me. I do, however; thank you for your help.
