A funky trees question.

43.9k PlanesOfOld  4.1 years ago

As a proud smoothbrain, I find funky trees to be an enigma, wrapped in a veil of mystery.

I've been tampering (through trial and error) with custom dials, specifically speedometers.

I've been using the input IAS followed by a number, which changes the amount that the rotator rotates.

So to prevent me from faffing around with trial and error, I've come to ask if there is a specific equation that I can use to find this input value so that an accurate speed reading will be given on any custom dial.

Thank you.

    @PlanesOfOld, I have an aircraft suggestion for you. I tried to find the Fokker Spin on this site but I couldn’t find any. Also a F.E2b because there are good ones but I have seen your skill level and I’m sure you will make a good one. Have a good day.

    @YoDudeChase Right, I thought the numbers were arbitrary, but now I know they're M/s. Thanks, will have a tinker.

    @rexrexThezion But my dials are in imperial. And it is truly the greatest system of measurement ever devised.

    (to clarify all speed measurements are in m/s when using the as a input)

    If GS is 44 m/s thats equal to 100mph, also use clamp(GS, 0, 44)
    44 m/s or 100mph being the top speed, hope this helps a bit
