Glorious, thank you. A good opponent for the Ni-11

I am very happy to see this cool classic fighter fly again in the IL-2 skies.
It may have taken a long time to make, but it was worth the wait. She is looking beautiful.

Big Applause to Lisek (Modder-Mecanik+designer+engineer+creator!)
and also to VPmedia, SAS~Anto and Loku !! for your much needed contributions and dedication to making this
aircraft fly nice. Great job guys, THANK YOU!
It´s a Top-Gun airplane for everyone to enjoy!




This is THE FIRST Top-gun Ace airplane in the world! and a very rare airplane too.
Fokker production figures state that only 249 E.IIIs were manufactured during World War 1.

The only known surviving original Eindecker, bearing IdFlieg serial number 210/16, was brought down in the Somme area in
1916 by the British and then evaluated by the War Office until it was transferred to the London Science Museum in 1918.
It is currently on display fully assembled, but with its fabric covering removed to illustrate its internal construction

- Position of the dead pilot is placed too far backward from the cockpit
- Is it possible to simulate (roughly at least) wing-warping? For example, is there possibility to create an angled axis and rotate part of the wing around it?
- Do you have any plans to update a FM? I thought the plane with wing-warping should have poorer roll characteristics (of course, I can be wrong).

No.1: Sorry, that is my bad, I missed it, fix in first post.

No.2: Wing-warping wasn't planned from the early begginig, in IL it wouldn't look too realistic.

No.3: In reality you shouldn't really be able to do a roll in this plane, but thanks to Oleg and IL-2 physics it is possible. Few rough turns is everything that this plane should be capable of doing 

[SAS~Anto]

I could tune the roll behaviour a little bit but wing warping really isn't a possibility.

Possible bug? The plane, when shot down, "floats" over the ground. Also, when killed, the pilot has 11/2 heads (WW1 pilots by Max)

Please read before asking:
...
2# due to its extremaly small weigt and speed, plane won't always explode after hitting ground, just some parts may fall away, making futher flight impossible.

Enjoy

Thanks

I've sent Lisek an updated flight model. Roll rate reduced and tweaked G parameters slightly.
