I\m glad you like it. Use this version instead which is adapted to the changes in aerodynamics in version 1.3 of the game so it flies vetter in the current version of the game

Alright!

I'll see what I can do with all my old planes eventually, no time frame though.

Are going to make the b-24, like your previous one?
Thank you again!

Now we just need to rest!

Wow nice!

3(2) So basically smaller planes can be made ok-ish but with surprises and "dynamic" issues (like my Stuka that nosedives uncontrollably for some reason after the bombs are dropped) and larger planes are basically fooked if you think they should be able to actually fly like a plane and not just in a straight line.
Basically the same assessment I've made since relase og 1.2 but with a small change of opinion on smaller planes, some can be made to work ok, but there are a lot of weird issues that can pop up at any time it seems.

Planes with greater wing spans though like my bombers are just broken. You can do a loop(!!!!!) with my Superfortress which has a realistic top speed with a full bomb load , but you can't roll past 1/8-1/4 of a roll before it just stops rolling due to the immense loss of speed.
So take off, fly, climb, dive, but if you want to roll and/or turn you'll soon find trouble. basically you need to fly the Superfortress like my Caproni Ca.42 - veeeeery patiently and turn slowly in increments with enough altitude to constantly push the nose down to not lose too much speed.
It's so broken it's not even funny. A loop, sure, a roll? NOPE!
Not to mention the amazing infinity loops you can get caught in because of the dynamic lift depending on angle of attack and the drag and weight issues.

Smaller ones work ok, even though the more "dynamic" and less linear fluid dynamics makes it very hard to trim planes properly, and the HUGE drag of exterior bombs and the HUGE impact on a plane's flight characteristics the tiney fins on a bomb or two can have and the huge emphasis on weight are just broken features IMHO.
Rolling is completely broken. Every time you try to roll you automatically pitch up, losing even more speed than jsut the roll, and you lose an even more ridiculous amount of speed in 1.2 than in 1.1.3. My Lightning went from 600 kph to 160 from ONE roll. Also since the aielrons are SO speed dependant you can start a roll bit lose so much speed in the first few degress of it that it just won't continue, and you lose even more speed trying to go back and then you fall out of the sky stalling. Utterly broken. It was bad enough before with speed loss when rolling and turning but now it's utterly broken.

Have you crack the code to making the planes fly right?
Anna K. Wow 19 Aug, 2022 @ 3:26pm 
So, if I understand you correctly, it would fly like a brick.
Mean Green  [author] 19 Aug, 2022 @ 3:23pm 
Had to look it up but it looks like they've "chubbied" it to make it cartooony and cute. Would probably fly as well IRL as real looking planes do in brick Rigs... ;)
Anna K. Wow 19 Aug, 2022 @ 3:09pm 
It don't look to aerodynamic.
Anna K. Wow 19 Aug, 2022 @ 3:08pm 
You know the Bomber Crew B-17? I wonder how it would fly in a wind tunnel...
Mean Green  [author] 19 Aug, 2022 @ 3:03pm 
LOL!

Tis WW2 time again.
