Flight Path

What is it about?

This page covers the Flight Path node of the Scene Nodes system in Cinema 4D. From origin and destination coordinates it computes an arced trajectory with adjustable altitude and planet radius — the curve behind flight-route graphics.

After entering longitude and latitude for an aircraft's origin and destination, the Node calculates a possible trajectory that takes into account a desired altitude and an individual earth radius.

This Node calculates a curve along a sphere, connecting two given positions on the surface.
