Reference

Attribute defaults below are the script class defaults (from [Attribute(...)]). The Cessna prefab overrides several of these - the prefab is authoritative for the reference airframe.

PFC_FlightModel

Attribute Default Description
m_fMaxThrustPerEngine 2500 Max thrust per engine (N).
m_fMinHealthThrustFraction 0.25 Thrust fraction left at zero hull health (linear with health).
m_iNumEngines 1 Number of engines.
m_fMaxControlDeflectionDeg 25 Max control-surface deflection (deg).
m_fFlapDeflectionDeg 40 Flap deflection when deployed (deg). Core never deploys flaps.
m_fFlapDeployDurationSeconds 2.0 Flap deploy/retract time (s).
m_fAirDensitySeaLevel 1.225 Air density at sea level (kg/m³).
m_fDensityFalloff 0.0001 Linear density falloff per metre of altitude.
m_fWindScale 1.0 Multiplier on world wind (0 = ignore, >1 = stronger).
m_fWindSurfaceFraction 0.5 Wind fraction at the surface (boundary-layer gradient).
m_fWindGradientHeight 150 AGL (m) at which wind reaches full strength.
m_fGustIntensity 0.3 Gust strength as a fraction of steady wind (0 = smooth).
m_fGustVerticalScale 0.5 Vertical gust strength relative to horizontal.
m_fFuselageDragArea 0.6 Fuselage longitudinal drag (Cd·A, m²).
m_fAngularDamping 2.0 Angular-velocity decay rate (1/s), speed-scaled.
m_bDebugDraw false Initial F6 debug-draw state.
m_fIdleRPM 800 Engine idle RPM.
m_fMaxRPM 2700 Engine max RPM.
m_fRPMRate 0.5 RPM ramp rate (fraction of max RPM per second).
m_fAltAGLSmoothingTau 0.5 Radar-altimeter smoothing tau (s).
m_aSurfaceDefs - Array of PFC_AeroSurfaceDef (the aero surfaces).

PFC_FlightController

Attribute Default Description
m_fThrottleRate 0.5 Throttle change per second while held.
m_fControlRate 1.0 Roll input slew rate (units/s).
m_fPitchControlRate 0.7 Pitch input slew rate (units/s).
m_fYawControlRate 1.5 Yaw input slew rate (units/s).
m_fPitchInputScale 0.7 Max pitch input magnitude (0..1).
m_fGroundSteerScale -1.0 Nose-wheel steering scale from PFC_Yaw; 0 disables.
m_fInputSendIntervalMs 16 Milliseconds between input RPCs to the server.

Cessna prefab overrides: m_fControlRate 3.5, m_fPitchControlRate 3, m_fYawControlRate 3.5, m_fPitchInputScale 1.

PFC_AeroSurfaceDef

Attribute Default Description
m_sLabel "Surface" Label for logs / debug gizmos.
m_vPosition 0 0 0 Local position (m). Mirror negates X.
m_vRotation 0 0 0 Local rotation (yaw pitch roll, deg) → normal + forward axes.
m_bMirror true Spawn an X-mirrored counterpart (ailerons flip sign).
m_iControlAxis NONE NONE / ELEVATOR / AILERON / RUDDER / FLAPS.
m_fChord 4.5 Chord length (m).
m_fSpan 8.0 Span length (m).
m_fLiftSlope 5.5 Lift-curve slope per radian (thin-airfoil max ≈ 2π).
m_fSkinFriction 0.02 Skin-friction drag at zero lift.
m_fZeroLiftAoA 0 Zero-lift angle of attack (deg).
m_fStallAngleHigh 15 Positive stall angle (deg).
m_fStallAngleLow -15 Negative stall angle (deg).
m_fFlapFraction 0 Fraction of chord that is the moving control (0 = fixed).
m_fEfficiency 0.85 Oswald efficiency factor (induced drag).
m_fAspectRatioOverride 0 Override AR for induced drag; 0 = use span/chord.

Instrument signals

Published by PFC_FlightModel.UpdateSignals (names match vanilla VehicleGauge_*.conf). MP signals replicate to all peers; per-engine prop angles are local, integrated from the replicated RPM.

PFC's own resources use the 69A8A340… GUID range. Input-action source GUIDs follow a convention: …0002xxx = keyboard, …0003xxx = gamepad, …0004xxx = joystick.
