Info

Adjusting the Sun Inclination- To position the sun higher in the sky, or set it below the horizon, modify the inclination. To adjust the inclination, select the Sun menu. This will bring forth the Azimuth and Inclination options. Highlight the Inclination menu item in the pull-down selections. To raise the sun higher in the sky, click Increase. Click Decrease to lower the sun, or to set it below the horizon to make it night time. Alternatively, you may increase or decrease the inclination by pressing Shift + Page Up or Shift + Page Down. When altering the inclination, the simulation temporarily displays the new location in the lower left corner of the window. At night time, RealFlight G5.5 will automatically enable lighting effects on objects and aircraft that offer the lighting abilities. Thermals- Thermals add to the realism in the RealFlight environment. A thermal is a column of rising air that is hotter than the surrounding air. Thermals affect all aircraft, but they are most important to gliders and soaring aircraft, as thermals assist them in obtaining additional altitude. 67
RealFlight G5.5 offers two types of thermals. Wind- Dynamic- Dynamic thermals are most realistic. These thermals can appear anywhere in the environment, just as they would in the real world. The simulation will automatically generate thermals when the Dynamic setting is selected. Simple- These type of thermals are static or stationary and do not move around the environment as do dynamic thermals. Only the thermals that were designed into the airport are active. RealFlight G5.5’s TruFlo Wind Dynamics offers the most realistic wind model of any R/C simulator. Its components work together to capture this complex, ever-changing force with unmatched realism. Just as it would at the field, your model will encounter a variety of wind forces as it soars across the skies in RealFlight. Sailplane enthusiasts will appreciate the lifelike effect of the winds as they follow the drafts on the slopes and hills of G5.5. 68
