JSBSim FDM #136

I guess for things like better stall/spin etc. we will sometime need a JSBSim FDM, I will try, just for fun :D

Good news on this one: I just completed the first pattern with the JSBsim fdm, winch start is working (ported from DG101G), stall is at least more realistic than the yasim one, there are still a lot of things to tweak about its flight characteristics and performance, but it's flyable and not completely unrealistic :)

if you want to test see branch jsb, feedback is welcome, the handling still doesn't feel right but I can't figure out what exactly it is

Hey, thanks for that, I'll try to have a flight or two with it this weekend and have a look at it.

Current to-dos:

[ ] improve stall characteristics (slower descent, is currently at >5, should be around 3-4 IIRC)
[ ] enable spin with CG >328mm aft of leading edge (according to POH https://www.alexander-schleicher.de/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/210_TM04B_D_HB.pdf p.11)
[ ] improve general handling characteristics (doesn't feel correct yet)
[ ] make winch behaviour the same for yasim and jsbsim variants
- [ ] make winch controllable (faster/slower command)
[x] add a JSBSim FDM for the -mi (after FDM is tuned for the above)
