I am trying different aircraft downloaded from JSBSim and unziped aircraft folder contents to aircraft folder as the rascal in SITL rather than Rascal they are not working.
Started with tutorial
http://ardupilot.org/dev/docs/setting-up-sitl-on-linux.html
“If using the JSBSim plane simulator you can specify a different JSBSim model than the default Rascal110 by specifying the model name using the -f parameter to sim_vehicle.py, like this:
sim_vehicle.py -f jsbsim:MyModel --console --map
the model should be in the Tools/autotest/aircraft/ directory.”
I found Rascal in the ardupilot/Tools/autotest/aircraft/ directory the line had to contain Rascal.
josheeg@josheeg-Vostro-220-Series:~/ardupilot/ArduPlane$ sim_vehicle.py -f jsbsim:Rascal --console --map
There are no other aircraft there
I added the aircraft folder contents here
JSBSim aircraft models zip is here
“Aircraft data and example scripts
You can get aircraft data and example scripts by downloading either the zip package or the tar.gz package.
I run
josheeg@josheeg-Vostro-220-Series:~/ardupilot/ArduPlane$ sim_vehicle.py -f jsbsim:Boeing314 --console --map^C
