+ | The joystick controls the cursor in the control panel view. The systems modeled can be viewed in the included PNG files. This is a very simplified space craft powered by hydrogen-oxygen fuel cells (FC). When a load is added to the system, the FC temp will increase. The FC will deliver less than the required power until it warms up, which is where the battery comes in, suppling the deficit on demand. The FC can be pre-warmed, or kept warm if the load is low, by opening the radiator valve. If a FC gets too cold, the reaction will cease. Once off, a FC cannot be restarted. The Glycol coolant system is not yet modeled, nor is staging. | ||

+ | FDAI - This indicator will have three modes. The current shows the position over the selected body. The second mode will display the orientation with respect to the body, that is, it will be showing black if the ship is pointing away from the body, white if pointing towards. The third mode will show how the orientation of the space craft compares to the direction of flight. That is, whether it is aligned for pro-grade, or retro-grade acceleration. | ||
