StaticTrim routine fails with Dynamic control surfaces

[ngoiz]

When a control surface is classified as Dynamic (i.e. in the aero.h5 input file control_surface_type[i_cs] = 1), the StaticTrim routine fails because it is unable to change the control surface deflection angle.

Minor impact since you can get the trim condition with the control surface as static first (i.e. control_surface_type[i_cs] = 0) and then run the Dynamic simulation starting from StaticCoupled with the already known trim values. However, this behaviour is worth fixing.

Hello. I am currently facing this problem. Could you clarify how to use Static first and then transfer to the Dynamic simulation? I understand that you would generate the sharpy file up until StaticTrim using the static type control surface, but isn't AeroGridLoader the main component of the dynamic controls (which is done before StaticTrim in the flow definition)? Would you have to run the generate_solver_file function up until Static trim, switch the control surfaces types, and then resume? Thank you in advance for your reply!
