Inherits FGEngine.
List of all members.
Detailed Description
FGElectric models an electric motor based on the configuration file <power> parameter. The throttle controls motor output linearly from zero to <power>. This power value (converted internally to horsepower) is then used by
FGPropeller to apply torque to the propeller. At present there is no battery model available, so this motor does not consume any energy. There is no internal friction.
