inertial tensors & Center of mass??
Hi, I am trying my best to program a simple flight simulator (or just movement for now!) and having problems.
But whilst doing more research into it, I've come across a few things I am not doing, and can't really find a undersstandble answer too?
I need to know the "Center of Mass" of the object or plane in this case?
Now the plane is made up of 4 bodies fuselarge, main wing, horizontal & vertical stabaliser.
So how do i find the center of mass?
And also apparently i need to know the intertial tensors or moment of inertia? How do i get this?
My maths isn't great and all is a learning curve.
Thanks
Andy
