higher value stops the aircraft in a shorter distance; a lower value increases the<br />

distance the aircraft rolls upon landing (with the brakes activated, of course).<br />

CAMBER THRUST COEFFICIENT-<br />

This setting controls the effect of the wheel’s camber on the lateral movement of the<br />

wheel. A higher value means that this will have a more significant impact.<br />

To adjust the camber thrust coefficient, click the existing value in the value box.<br />

Next, enter the desired value either directly from the keyboard or via the mouse<br />

wheel.<br />

COMPONENT FRAME (LEFT)-<br />

This value represents the component frame of the item; in this case, the values for<br />

the left wheel.<br />

Clicking on the respective value column will bring forth the drop-down menu<br />

selection of the various Component Frames.<br />

COMPONENT FRAME (RIGHT)-<br />

This value represents the component frame of the item; in this case, the values for<br />

the right wheel.<br />

Clicking on the respective value column will bring forth the drop-down menu<br />

selection of the various Component Frames.<br />

FRICTION COEFFICIENT-<br />

As the name suggests, this setting is utilized to adjust the amount of friction for the<br />

wheels. Higher values mean that the wheels exhibit more friction.<br />

To adjust the friction, click the existing value in the value box. Next, enter the<br />

desired value either directly from the keyboard or via the mouse wheel.<br />

HAS WHEEL PANT-<br />

This option determines whether the aircraft is equipped with wheel pants.<br />

If the wheel pants are present, select Yes. If the aircraft is not equipped with wheel<br />

pants, please select No. To make your selection, click the respective value box.<br />

Select either Yes or No from the pull-down menu.<br />

ROLLING RESISTANCE COEFFICIENT (%)-<br />

This option is used to adjust the amount of resistance that the wheels exhibit when<br />

rolling on the ground. A higher value means that the wheels offer more resistance to<br />

forward movement.<br />

To adjust the amount of resistance, click the existing value in the value box. Next,<br />

enter the desired value either directly from the keyboard or via the mouse wheel.<br />

ROTATION ABOUT Y (CAMBER) (DEG)-<br />

This value indicates the angle of the wheel in relation to the landing gear.<br />

To adjust the rotational degree about the Y-axis, click the existing value in the value<br />

box. Next, enter the desired value either directly from the keyboard or via the mouse<br />
