Syntax

MissionModeler_RM <AircraftObjPath> Procedure <Index> GetValue MinArcTurnAngle <ArcRadius> <Unit1> <StartAltitude> <Unit2> <StopAltitude> <Unit3> [<Unit>]

Description

<Index> Enter the index of the procedure.
<ArcRadius> Specify the radius of the arc.
<Unit1> Specify the unit that the <ArcRadius> value is entered in. The dimension type is MissionModelerDistance.
<StartAltitude> Specify the start altitude.
<Unit2> Specify the unit that the <StartAltitude> value is entered in. The dimension type is MissionModelerAltitude.
<StopAltitude> Specify the end altitude.
<Unit3> Specify the unit that the <StopAltitude> value is entered in. The dimension type is MissionModelerAltitude.
[<Unit>] Specify the unit that the turn angle value is returned in. This parameter is optional, the default unit is radians (rad). The dimension type is Angle.

Return Value

A real value indicating the minimum turn angle. A value of Inf indicates infinity.

The output is the minimum required value for TurnAngle in order for the aircraft to join or exit the arc on the inbound or outbound radial. If TurnAngle is defined at a value less than this minimum, then the only option for joining or exiting the arc is "OnArc".
