extAngle | Angle between the full extended and the full retracted main strut. | |
extractedAngle | Angle of the main strut in extracted position around the landing gears y-axis. Defaults to 90 degrees which is vertal. | |
offset | Distance from the upper end of the main strut to the axis of rotation of the pintle strut. | |
retractAngle | Retraction angle of the nose landing gear. Equals a rotation around the global z-axis in degrees. 0 = retraction to the front; 90 = retraction to the left; 180 = retraction to the rear; 270 = retraction to the right. | |
totalLength | Total length of nose landing gear, equals the distance form the middle of the bogie/axles to the axis of rotation of the pintle strut. Distance is measured while nose landing gear is fully extended. |
