Vikner Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 Just finished flight testing the new FMs. Here is how they line up. All flown at 1000 meters, 50% fuel, auto level, with mixture adjusted for max RPM when applicable. Max RPM achieved and speed in KPH (indicated, not true, but all at same pressure altitude) if someone wants to compare. Just did the ones with major FM mods but will probably expand to all aircraft when I have time: Sopwith Camel 1200 RPM 161 KPH Sopwith Pup 1180 RPM 151 KPH Sopwith Tripe 1180 RPM 161 KPH PDIIIa 1550 RPM 175 KPH DIII 1540 RPM 180 KPH DVa 1540 RPM 180 KPH DRIa 1320 RPM 165 KPH SE5a 1880 RPM 204 KPH My initial impression is that they look reasoanble based on historic comparison. Camel won't run down an Albatross anymore. Lipfert 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
