SqwkHappy Posted April 7, 2020 Posted April 7, 2020 In-sim the full throttle takeoff and cruise RPMs for the Sopwith Camel is ~1420. Mind you, engine damage occurs in-sim at about 1500 RPM. That is crazy!! So I did some research: Every source I find says the 130 HP Clerget 9B motor in the F.1 Sopwith Camel provided 130 HP at 1250 RPMs. Further research shows the more powerful, Clerget 9Bf also provided it's full HP of 140 at 1250 RPMs as well.
