Roman makes those FMs for free. How fair of you is it to speak with that tone?
These will be back when theres time and will to fix em. (for 1.52 i guess).

If you want to pay rgreat for making these planes...im sure he might hurry a bit.

But as you get it free. Try to be patient.

I did some tests this morning in TA, for the Typhoon.
Method was standart, dive to the altitude, then turn WEP on and slow down to the sustained speed.

Real data are from british test of Typhoon, Illo's chart. Speeds in that chart are slowest compared to the other sources.

Code:

Results: Typhoon Ib Alt RL FH Difference 0 342 348 6 2000 349 355 6 4000 357 361 4 6000 366 360 -6 8000 373 363 -10 8750 376 365 -11 10000 374 369 -5 12000 373 375 2 14000 370 380 10 16000 373 384 11 18000 383 389 6 20000 392 390 -2 22000 391 390 -1 24000 385 391 6 26000 370 388 18

FH Typhoon has very different, almost linear power curve, not comparable to the RL one with two-stage supercharger.
Fw190A has similar shaped power curve as RL Typhoon, and it is also in the game, so there is no reason for Tiffie to have some abstract performance. I believe that FH Tiffie's linear power curve is actually disadvantage, because it lacks power at the most important altitudes for this aircraft, between 5k-12k. Few mph on the deck aren't going to make it better, it is already faster than other planes at this alt...

It is possibly little faster than 1942 Tiffie (3-4mph) , but we have same plane till the end, where it had increased allowed boost like other british fighters, and then it is again slower than 1944 Tiffie (almost 20mph at best altitude, same plane).

95% of all fights in the arena are under 20k, so I don't care much about higher alts. Most aircrafts are way off at high alts anyway.

Yes tiffie is quite right now. I hope rgreat can fix that power curve to make it perfect in that area.

Those few mph make it tad faster than 190A-4 at deck. With real power curve this would be reversed.

I just have to say that roll inertia in FH is REALLY REALLY screwed up.

THANKS AND WTG IEN!

Seems like theres no way to fix it.

for full realism that would be great, but until average pings get lower that type of realism would make some planes - 190s espescially - almost impossible to hit. warp rolling is pretty damned bad as it is. RL 190 could roll almost 360 degrees/s, no?

RollandGarros:
Well, little over 180 deg/sec was possible...in theory, given the max deflection of ailerons and their effectivity.

And if you ignore all allied tests for whatever reason
