refuel probe failing to transfer fuel

39.1k Weaverfish  2.2 years ago

i've got an aircraft with sea floats and a refuel probe, and a big ship loaded with fuel and a refuel drogue

the aircraft lands in the water, then moves up to the ship and holds itself to the ship with magnets

the aircraft then unfolds a long arm with a refuelling probe which inserts into the refuel drogue on the ship, at this point the aircraft is supposed to be refuelled, but it isn't - what's going on here?

some other questions I have are about the attributes of the refuel drogue and what they mean?
angular drag power
angular stab power

thanks for the help

    Nope. The cat ate her. (Fortunately, the cat was so stuffed for the next 2 years, he never had to eat again)

    @TheMouse Easy enough to find. I just need to look in the tank-sized mouse hole.

    No, seriously, I am not. I was looking at this guys profile, from the auto credit on that, and checking if he was still active. This was his last post, so I decided to take a look.
