  • Halberstadt D.II (2.0) 7.6 years ago

    Thanks for your input @RASEN1914. I forgot to mention in the description that I made the Halberstadt a little faster than it really was to help counter the torque and make the plane more likable in terms of overall performance. Try setting the prop's horsepower to 350 (gives the plane an accurate HP/lb reading) or 400 for a more realistic experience.

    As for explosive armaments, I decided against adding bombs or rockets, the latter of which was actually used on the Halberstadt, to keep the plane as light and nimble as possible. If you want, I could upload another version that has a more accurate performance and that carries Lieutenant Nebel's experimental rockets (realistic depiction; I won't just hook a couple rocket launchers onto the plane), as shown in the two photos in this link:

    Thanks for all of the positive feedback everyone! I didn't expect expect this plane to get half the amount of attention it has now. You guys are great!

  • S.E.5a (WWI Challenge) 7.8 years ago

    What do you not like? I'd love to know so I can make improvements as needed.

    I suppose I could work on maneuverability. The thing turns like a whale...

    What do you think is wrong?

    I don't think I'm that good. After all, it's extremely hard to get this thing off the ground. I am working on a solution, though.
