I guess we need a flyable Anton to compare.... :)

Good 190 pilots can beat bad Mustang pilots in a turn fight in dcs. But most of the time the Mustang turns much better, especially with flaps. Flaps seem to help a lot in dcs for not much of a cost in energy. Same thing with 109 vs spit. In a minimum radius level turn you can outturn bad spit pilots with 2 stripes of flaps. Same with Mustang vs 109. Most of the time with between 1 & 3 notches flaps you can outturn most 109 pilots. I know the flaps thing was discussed here somewhere before but can't remember how it ended. I think David & Mad tested it to the conclusion that basically you have more of an advantage the more flaps you use in dcs, and the cost in speed/energy is not enough to make it worth keeping them in.

Yes... more specific teasing please :music_whistling: jk Hopefully some of it will be in our hands sometime soon... or at least announced so that we can see where DCS WWII is going (/drool over it while we wait). Still hoping that the online community can grow beyond the same 10 people on 2 servers playing airquake atm.

Does this mean there is enough data for ED to make a 109G/F / 190A?? ... pretty please.... :P

Not 100% sure but apparently availability of documentation was one of the reasons the K4 and D9 were chosen over Gustav & Anton. Although I can't imagine why this would be the case either.

Better mission design could solve most problems with the normandy map. Plus if you use the assets pack on caucasus the same people will be excluded. And there is no guarantee that performance on 2.5 caucasus will be better than normandy.....

+1

Consider also that the K-4 is one of the heaviest 109s, and pilots apparently preferred the handling/manoeuvrability of the G series (which were worse than the F in this regard as well). Try flying with full fuel and with even 70% and there is a noticeable difference in how the aircraft handles. Particularly at low speed or nose high attitude the aircraft is quite a handful. As far as controllability on the limit I would agree that the Mustang is much tamer in DCS. At least at ~40% fuel with which I mostly fly it online. The Force Feedback gives a bit more warning which with some practice makes the P-51 very pleasant/comfortable to take right to the edge. Here is also a good site if you want to find quotes from wartime pilots who flew or flew against 109s.

Eastern front would be interesting but it would be better to see the Western Front fleshed our a bit more first. That being said while I’m not a huge Rata fan I’m definitely glad to see anyone developing stuff for DCS WWII. Good luck with the project, looking forward to see what the worthy foe you are talking about might be too ;)

It’s from WW2 but does it really count as an aircraft? :music_whistling: :lol: Looks more like a clown car with wings to me...

Anyone know where the files are located so that maybe someone can make a mod or maybe we can just delete them till a proper fix arrives?

Just DCS being broken I think. As MAD says, nothing new.....

Be careful or you’ll get the thread locked again.... :lol:

Jockel you left the 'game' Labels on in whatever the latest update was. Not the labels mod but the blue and red ones that pop up at 10NM.......

No..... he is not.

First we need more realistic WWII airfields for the WWII map.... instead of the every airfield is an ALG things we have now...

Hopefully 2.2 patch tomorrow... Edit: well so much for that.........

It's not bad, and probably the best mod available atm but there are somw areas where it seems to me at least to be wrong (particularly idle). 5tuka even said himself there are some limitations he couldn't manage to get around. The ones in the other sim also seem to be much more true to life than in DCS. Particularly the throaty periodic idle noises of the 605.

What did you change the value to? Looks nice.

Don’t think so. P-51 and spits still hear you sneaking up on them. Although with Jafas sound mod it seems to be reduced.

109?? :P

Well they delayed the P-47 now to work on their old modules so who knows, maybe they’ll get around to it after they’re done with the DM.

Just google Pato cockpit mod or something similar. There were some here once upon a time but as mentioned by some others it’s not allowed here.

Didnt pass integrity check when I used it earlier. Was fine till I spawned in, then I got kicked.

There are screenshots on the download page.
