Avia B-534 has been tested at least by 2 real life pilots (one military one, one civilian one) during 4.09 beta-testing. They had no issues with it's FM. They found the flight characteristics believable and solid.

Our squad has a pilot who flew Hellcats (and also early jets) off carriers and was an engineering for Boeing aircraft, yet Oleg refused what he was told..
and was told in extremely legnthy details.. in the mathmetics of the flight models..

Many, many pages of aeronotcal info was passed on to Oleg..

so, it doesn't seem to matter if you bring in real people and engineers, Oleg was only interested in leveling the playing field so they would fly as he imagned they flew..

Not Bashing Oleg and his team, as he did his best,,, but when it came down to fixing the problems and listening they abandoned the allied planes..

So now some of you new comers can see some of the history that came about when many of these planes were added a few years ago..

Thank you Daidalos Team! You will makee so many of us happy with your efforts and your continuing work and patch 4.09!

Problem: Anecdotal stuff can't be used to base FM numbers on it.

That's actually quite a low blow. There are more than a few axis aircraft which do have serious issues as well and most were not even acknowledged, either. Having FM/DM issues is no question of Red or Blue (or even nation or not), but simply a result of a myriad of issues Maddox Games as a business entity had to deal with and which all impacted on how deeply they could afford to delve into issues. I'm learning something new every day over at the Daidalos board and some things are becoming logical if you look at them from the perspective of a developer who has to calculate manpower and financial input vs potential financial gain.

I said aeronautical (sorry, the first time I spelled it wrong..) info, I did not say ancedotal... please re-read.._

also, I talked to him and he said he would be willing to give it another go and communicate with the people who are making the patches..

Is there an e-mail address I can pass on to the pilot and engineer so he can chat with you (the powers that be..and send you the info you need?

Thanx..

Interesting stuff here, however I only have one wish(I have full confidence others will be looked at ) and that's 20mm for G10/G14 as a loadout option...

Also is there a possibility of a DT's FW190A3? I know we have A4 and that A3 maybe wouldn't be a needed so much but as a FW nutcase I have to ask

Thanks team, looks fantastic.

Sad to read the Sm79 was such a failure. So many aircraft lost for such small rewards! I always thought it was a success. But I suspect alot of those losses were in the later part of the italian war.
