    Alright.
    I need to animate my spoilers in FSDS 2.I have them named keyframe spoilers (ie
    r_spoiler.inboardtop ect.) THe aircraft im modeling has both spoilers on the
    upper and lower surface of the wings. In flight the upper ones are limited to
    27 degrees up and the lower ones are limited to 59 degrees down. On the ground
    they go up 91 degrees on the top and down 86 degrees on the bottom. What
    Keyframe numbers do I have to set to get my spoilers to do this?.
    You will need two sets of spoilers. One set animated for on the ground You also
    need to assign a condition of On Ground is true. Do the opposite of the set in
    the air.


    Also how do I get my spoilers on the right wing to come up with my right
    aileron? and the left ones to come up with the left aileron?
    You need to make duplicate of the spoiler, tag it as a right aileron, make the
    Hierarchy node (no geometry) and make it a parent of the spoiler.
