This defines where the wheels touch the ground so the aircraft knows where to start... set the coords the same way you set collision points

Thank you Sv for their answer. I have found the obWheels value, but, I am not able to find the values of the collision to that you make reference. ¿where they figure exactly?

I use AC3D to calculate the collision point coordinate values. Here is how I find the wheel values to position the aircraft on mission start:

Use Hippie's tools to import the entire aircraft into AC3D. Now edit the fuselage LOD for your aircraft by adding 1 new vertex where each wheel would contact the ground. Now just note that vertex coordinate in AC3D, for this you will get the three coordinates to use in the onWheels prop list.

The trick is that the coordinates need to be relative to your root level object - in most all cases that is the main fuselage.

I think this is the way it works... I am going from memory here, I hope I am right
