I'm glad I didn't resist.

If I thought the WW2 birds were mind-bendingly good in VR I might have thought nothing could trump them. I would have been wrong, the WW1 kites are even better. They are much more suited to the VR limitations in my opinion and a damn sight more fun to fly and fight in.

One observation (and hope for improvement), I can lean my head further out of the 109 than the Pfalz or Dr1 so if it would be possible to fix that anomaly... :)

Engine management...I'm buggering them in both planes and my guess is I'm not adjusting the mixture? I'll do a search for info on that but if anyone would like to offer wisdom it'll be gratefully received and TIA. :)

 The Dr1, Spad and Camel all require you to adjust the fuel mixture. Set it to full rich when starting the engine, then lean it back to about 80% or so.  There is no mixture adjustment on the Pfalz, but you will need to keep an eye on the temperature and adjust the radiator accordingly,(also in the Spad).  Keep your radiator open to allow for proper cooling while climbing but once at altitude you will need to close it some to prevent it from running to cold.  Over 2.5K , or when in a dive, you should close the radiator completely, just don't forget to reopen it.

 

  Hope this helps.

Thanks J5, I'd totally forgotten about radiator management (so many years since I flew RoF). :)

Hi J5_Gamecock,

 

Is there some kind of documentation where you can find valuable information like this?

Cheers,

 

Sergio
