Description

Interface used to access options for the Autopilot - Vertical Plane Strategy of a Basic Maneuver Procedure.

Public Properties

AbsoluteAltitude	Gets or sets the absolute altitude for the specify altitude mode.
AirspeedOptions	Get the airspeed options.
AltitudeControlMode	Gets or sets the altitude control mode for the hold initial altitude, specify altitude, and specify altitude change modes.
AltitudeMode	Gets or sets the altitude mode of the autopilot - vertical plane strategy.
AltitudeRate	Gets or sets the altitude rate for the specify altitude rate mode.
CompensateForCoriolisAccel	Gets or sets the option to compensate for the acceleration due to the Coriolis effect.
ControlAltitudeRateValue	Gets or sets the altitude rate control value for the hold initial altitude, specify altitude, and specify altitude change modes.
ControlFPAValue	Gets or sets the control flight path angle value for the hold initial altitude, specify altitude, and specify altitude change modes.
ControlLimitMode	Gets or sets the control limits mode.
DampingRatio	Gets or sets the damping ratio of the control law.
FlyBallistic	Gets or sets the option to fly a ballistic trajectory when the performance is insufficient.
FPA	Gets or sets the flight path angle for the specify wind frame flight path angle mode.
MaxPitchRate	Gets or sets the max pitch rate for the control limits.
RelativeAltitudeChange	Gets or sets the relative altitude change for the specify altitude change mode.

Example

Add and configure a basic maneuver procedure

[Python - STK API]

      # IAgAvtrProcedureCollection procedures: Procedure Collection object
# Add a basic maneuver procedure
basicManeuver = procedures.Add(AgEAvtrSiteType.eSiteEndOfPrevProcedure, AgEAvtrProcedureType.eProcBasicManeuver)

# Set the navigation to use a Straight Ahead strategy
basicManeuver.NavigationStrategyType = 'Straight Ahead'
# Get the options for the straight ahead strategy
straightAhead = basicManeuver.Navigation
# Opt to maintain course (as opposed to maintain heading)
straightAhead.ReferenceFrame = AgEAvtrStraightAheadRefFrame.eMaintainCourse

# Set the profile to use a Autopilot - Vertical Plane strategy
basicManeuver.ProfileStrategyType = 'Autopilot - Vertical Plane'
# Get the options for the profile strategy
autopilot = basicManeuver.Profile
# Opt to maintain the initial altitude
autopilot.AltitudeMode = AgEAvtrAutopilotAltitudeMode.eAutopilotHoldInitAltitude
airspeedOptions = autopilot.AirspeedOptions
# Opt to maintain a specified airspeed
airspeedOptions.AirspeedMode = AgEAvtrBasicManeuverAirspeedMode.eMaintainSpecifiedAirspeed
# Specify the airspeed
airspeedOptions.SpecifiedAirspeed = 250

# Configure the options on the Attitude / Performance / Fuel page
basicManeuver.FlightMode = AgEAvtrPhaseOfFlight.eFlightPhaseCruise
# Override the fuel flow
basicManeuver.FuelFlowType = AgEAvtrBasicManeuverFuelFlowType.eBasicManeuverFuelFlowOverride
basicManeuver.OverrideFuelFlowValue = 1000

# Set the basic stopping conditions
basicManeuver.UseMaxDownrange = True
basicManeuver.MaxDownrange = 10
basicManeuver.UseStopFuelState = False
basicManeuver.UseMaxTimeOfFlight = False
