Properties
drivePitch
• Optional drivePitch: (pitch: number, adjustForAoa?: boolean, adjustForVerticalWind?: boolean) => void
A function used to drive the autopilot commanded pitch angle toward a desired value while optionally correcting for angle of attack and vertical wind.
Param
The desired pitch angle, in degrees. Positive values indicate downward pitch.
Param
Whether to adjust the commanded pitch angle for angle of attack. If true, the provided pitch
angle is treated as a desired flight path angle and a new commanded pitch angle will be calculated to produce the
desired FPA given the airplane's current angle of attack. This correction can be used in conjunction with the
vertical wind correction. Defaults to false.
Param
Whether to adjust the commanded pitch angle for vertical wind velocity. If true,
the provided pitch angle is treated as a desired flight path angle and a new commanded pitch angle will be
calculated to produce the desired FPA given the current vertical wind component. This correction can be used in
conjunction with the angle of attack correction. Defaults to false.
Param
The rate at which to drive the commanded pitch angle, in degrees per second. If not defined, a default rate will be used.
