Initial warnings after reading vsp3 file in Python

[Mike Kelly]

I have a model saved from OpenVSP 3.51.3 with the Python APIs installed from that version also. When I call ReadVSPFile(FileName) I get this output repeated six times - "One D Bezier curve g_functor, tt less than minimum.  tt: -nan(ind) t0: 0." Is there something in my model causing it? I can continue to use the APIs to get geometry components, parameters, and values. The model is attached. Thanks for any guidance.

I believe it is harmless.

There is a 1D solver that runs to set the lengths of the control surfaces.  I believe on startup, the surface isn't ready and it doesn't work properly.  Once the model is set up, it works fine.

However, I see you used three separate landing gear Geoms to represent your gear.  The Gear component is designed so you use a single landing gear component to represent all three points of contact.  The mains can easily be accomplished by turning on symmetry for that Bogie.  You can add a separate Bogie for the Nose wheel.  The various analyses associated with landing gear won't work with them as separate components.

Thanks for the good info, Rob. I will ignore the control surface warnings, and I created a single Gear component with multiple bogies for my landing gear.
