Drone Controls

The following are only currently valid for the Pelican but may be useful for other aircraft/drones.

Event Name	Parameters	Description
AXIS_VERTICAL_SPEED_SET	[0] Value between 0 and 16000
VERTICAL_SPEED_DEC	[0] Value between -16000 and 16000 to decrement by (maps to a value between -1 and 1)	By default this will decrement the vertical speed by 1/128, but you may supply a decrement amount as a parameter.

VERTICAL_SPEED_ZERO	N/A	Set the veretical speed to 0.

 

 

Freezing Position

Event Name	Parameters	Description
FREEZE_LATITUDE_LONGITUDE_TOGGLE		Turns the freezing of the lat/lon position of the aircraft (either user or AI controlled) on or off. If this key event is set, it means that the latitude and longitude of the aircraft are not being controlled by ESP, so enabling, for example, a SimConnect client to control the position of the aircraft. This can also apply to altitude and attitude. Refer to the simulation variables: IS_LATITUDE_LONGITUDE_FREEZE_ON, IS_ALTITUDE_FREEZE_ON, and IS_ATTITUDE_FREEZE_ON. Refer also to the SimConnect_AIReleaseControl function.
FREEZE_LATITUDE_LONGITUDE_SET		Freezes the lat/lon position of the aircraft.
FREEZE_ALTITUDE_TOGGLE		Turns the freezing of the altitude of the aircraft on or off.
FREEZE_ALTITUDE_SET		Freezes the altitude of the aircraft.
FREEZE_ATTITUDE_TOGGLE		Turns the freezing of the attitude (pitch, bank and heading) of the aircraft on or off.
FREEZE_ATTITUDE_SET		Freezes the attitude (pitch, bank and heading) of the aircraft.
