Variable Preset Example: NASA X-57

Introduction

This tutorial will demonstrate the versatility of Variable Presets and provide a couple of examples in the time and effort savings made possible by this feature. The X-57 common research model is provided in the example files so you can practice on your own. Flap, aileron, and rudder deflections can be quickly set for various flight conditions or maneuvers and even the high-lift propellers can be quickly stowed or deployed using Presets. Additionally, we show how various VSPAERO analysis settings can be quickly switched for different cases with Variable Presets.
