Quick start
- download SOURCE and DATA zip files from download page
- download and install JRE or JDK 1.3.1_01 or later from java.sun.com
- download and install Java3D from java.sun.com
(use Release DirectX distribution, it works faster than OpenGL in most cases)
- create a folder and unzip both SOURCE and DATA zip files into this folder
- go to JavaFlight folder and click on "run.bat"
Plane Controls
To start flying, put cursor in the window, press "w" and use arrows.
The controls are mimiking RC plane controls - left stick controls throttle
and rudder (vertical control on the tail of the plane) and right stick
controls elevator and aelerons. Left stick is represented by letters
"a" "s" "w" "z" on the keyboard (forming convenient cross) and the right stick
is just standard set of arrow keys. Pressing space key freezes the flight (speed=0)
and "Esc" resets the plane to initial position.
Mouse also controls the plane, dragging the mouse around central point in the
window controls aelerons and elevator. Releasing left button freezes the flight.
