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_INC [0] Value between -16000 and 16000 to increment by
(maps to a value between -1 and 1)
By default this will increment the vertical speed by 1/128, but you may supply an increment amount as a parameter.
VERTICAL_SPEED_SET [0] The axis value between -1 and 1 (maps to -16000 and 16000) Set the vertical speed to a value between -1 and 1.
VERTICAL_SPEED_ZERO N/A Set the vertical speed to 0.

 

 

Freezing Position

Event Name Parameters Description
FREEZE_LATITUDE_LONGITUDE_TOGGLE N/A 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 the simulation, 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 N/A Freezes the lat/lon position of the aircraft.
FREEZE_ALTITUDE_TOGGLE N/A Turns the freezing of the altitude of the aircraft on or off.
FREEZE_ALTITUDE_SET N/A Freezes the altitude of the aircraft.
FREEZE_ATTITUDE_TOGGLE N/A Turns the freezing of the attitude (pitch, bank and heading) of the aircraft on or off.
FREEZE_ATTITUDE_SET N/A Freezes the attitude (pitch, bank and heading) of the aircraft.

Event Name Parameters Description
POINT_OF_INTEREST_TOGGLE_POINTER Turn the point-of-interest indicator (often a light beam) on or off. Refer to the Missions system documentation.
POINT_OF_INTEREST_CYCLE_PREVIOUS Change the current point-of-interest to the previous point-of-interest.
POINT_OF_INTEREST_CYCLE_NEXT Change the current point-of-interest to the next point-of-interest.


Sim Rate

Event Name Parameters Description
SIM_RATE Selects the simulation rate. Use the PLUS and MINUS events to increment/decrement the value.
