Empty Settings
Empties have a special usage in XPlane2Blender. Having no mesh and no material, they are a fast and easy way to group and animate other Blender Objects. Post 3.5, they are also the way to specify special types of objects, such as particle emitters. Being a Blender Object, they share all the characteristics with what is covered [here]('35_object_settings.md').
