Took the FokkerDVIII up for a test tonight. Awesome plane. What an engine. I had all four speakers and the sub-woofer turned up, my desk started to shake. Excellent engine sounds. And flying, that plane can hang on it's prop. That is one really choice, amazing, fantastic, etc. plane, well hell I'm out of words.
Of course this is only a first impression.

Actually the plane didnt produce any characteristics of Prop Hang at least when I test flew it. It's still a nice looking plane. I hope the creator wont take offense.

So far the only complete plane inside and out in my opinion is the Fokker D7. Now thats a kick ass plane. Its even one the very few that actually have a flight model. I wish more time was spent with this for these other fantastic looking airplanes.

No offense taken, of course

All of the phsical specs are correct, except we don't have the WWI airfoils done yet, and the prop is not set correctly... this will be set when the airfoils are built. It will happen

We even need to make airfoils for the prop

Oh, also turn rate has not been set due to lack of known data. It must be out there some where...

And I give credit to the RB3D soundpack add-on for the sounds - GREAT sounds. I did have to resample them to get them to work in SDOE, and it is still not a perfect match. SDOE tunes engine sound to throttle, not RPM, etc.

Well we all need some job security!
