Main Wing – One of many physical parts found in the Airframe
Main Gear – The Main Gear on the P-51 attaches to the wing,
therefore, is listed under the Main Wing part.
Main Wheel – Finally, you'll see the wheel component which,
understandably, is found under the Main Gear part.
Once the Main Wheel is selected, the Parameter window will change to show all
parameters available to the Main Wheel. You'll notice that one of these parameters is
wheel diameter.
All other parts are found and modified in much the same way. However, if you are
unsure as to the location of a part, an easier way to access the part is to click on the
desired item in the Preview screen on the top half of the window. For example, if you
want to modify the parameters for the horizontal tail of the P-51, simply click on that
portion of the image. You'll notice that the Horizontal Tail is now selected in the
Aircraft Parts Tree.
Preview Screen-
As mentioned above, to quickly find the part in the Aircraft Parts Tree for
modification, you can simply click that part in the Preview screen itself. At times, you'll
notice that the part you want to click might be hidden behind another section of the
aircraft. If you find yourself in this situation, click and drag the mouse cursor around
the Preview screen. This will rotate the aircraft image around, so you may view it from
different angles. You may also use the scroll wheel on the mouse to zoom in and out
for a closer look at the section you are working on.
Parameter Window-
The final component of the on-screen layout is the Parameter window. This window
will list all the parameters available for the currently selected part in the Aircraft Parts
Tree.
