Nice work Gustavo.You do understand though that you could simply have used SDOE's Bf 109K-4 model as the basis for your G-10? The G-10 was simply an effort by the Germans to produce a fighter with a performance similar to a K-4 using older Gustav airframes and components.The G-10s produced by the Germans used some of the following components:-
-external stores of Bf 109G-1 or K-4
-electrical system of Bf 109 G-5 (modified)
-undercarriage of Bf 109G-2 or K-4
-radio of Bf 109G-5
-MW 50 system of Bf 109G-6
-Fuselage of Bf 109G-6 or K-4
-Fixed armament of Bf 109G-5
-Flying controls of Bf 109G-2
-Wing of Bf 109G-2, G-14, and K-4
-Powerplant of the G-6/AS (DB 605AS) or K-4 (DB 605D).The plan was to use DB 605D powerplants from the beginning, but as there were only a limited number available and they were to be used for the K-4, the early production Bf 109G-10s used DB 605AS powerplants and were known as Bf 109G-10/AS.The DB 605AS used the larger supercharger of the DB 603 and was used as the basis for the slightly more powerful DB 605D.Bf 109G-5/AS's and G-6/AS's that used the BD 605AS powerplant were the 1st 109s that used the new "refined" cowling that was seen in the K-4 which was aerodynamically superior thanks to the removal of the "beule" or humps over the MG 131 breech blocks seen in the G-5 and G-6.
Later production G-10s used the same powerplant as the K-4 (ie the DB 605D), and apart from slight differences, such as lack of geared trim tabs and differing positions of radio hatches and antennas, they were practically identical to the K-4.
I think the whole idea of having a G-10 is great, but since we already have a K-4, all that is necessary is taking its 3D model, changing the loadout to allow for the use of 20mm MG 151/20 or MK 108 30mm engine-mounted cannons and re-working the FM (the K-4 FM still has to be reworked).Since a late model G-10 is practically the same as a K-4, it'd make sense to model the less powerful G-10/AS model so that there would be some difference in performance.If you plan on modelling a late model G-10 you should have an a/c that has a performance almost identical to a K-4, and that seems self-defeating IMO.
