Flight Control Module

This module manages autopilot and various flight characteristics of your grid. For this module to function, the grid must have a Remote Control block.

  • Commands
    • start
    • stop

Commands

start

Engage the autopilot system, enabling the grid to fly autonomously if a Flight Plan is loaded.

fcs/start [--options]

Options

OptionValuesUnitDescription
speed0 - maxm/sSet the maximum speed of the grid.

Example

Terminal
fcs/start --speed=50;

Tips

By default, the max speed is 100 m/s, though you can use mods like Configurable Parameters to change this. I highly recommend it and typically set the max speed to 300 m/s for small grids, and 500 m/s for large grids.

stop

Disengage the autopilot system.

fcs/stop

Example

Terminal
fcs/stop;
