Default First Flight.

Full CEM with temp effects on.
Flew a large circuit around the field, did some loops to impress the ladies at their noon tea, brought her back in one piece with no engine damage.

Piece of cake.

BTW, the early Hurri with the DeHaviland prop is really a poor excuse for an aircraft.

Ha!!!

We'll discuss this later Tailspin...




BTW, I ran it at 1920 x 1080 (native for my monitor), left every setting as it came (looked like medium everything) and set AA at 4.

No modded graphics files either.

Ran smooth, no issues.

My System:

Win 7 Pro 64 bit.
Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 @ 3.16ghz.
6 gigs DDR2
EVGA GTX570 Superclocked
Creative X-Fi Fatal1ty Gamer sound card
Gigabyte EP45-UD3R mobo
PC Power and Cooling Silencer 750 psu.

Aye, flys like a brown paper bag but that pointy spinner is just so pretty.

Actually it handles nicely, no vices. It's just really slow.

Bring that crate over to France Tommy and we will show you how slow it really is,pretty pointy spinner or not!
Glad you finally got it El,its a blast.
As a tip,I would say pick one plane,and learn it inside out,because CoD with full CEM etc is a world away from old il2!
