Unannounced FM changes???

So, just following the most recent update, which added the Breguet, one of my squad mates noticed that some FMs had apparently been changed without any kind of update / patch notes...namely, the rudder authority changed for (as far as we've seen): 

More authority since update: 
- Pfalz D.XII

- Albatros D.Va
- Pfalz D.IIIa

- Nieuport 28
- Fokker Dr.I (?)



Less authority since update:
- Sopwith Camel 
- SPAD XIII
- SPAD VII

The Camel has incredibly low rudder authority now, to the point where it can't even counter the rotary engine enough to make a tight left-hand turn. In contrast, the Pfalz D.XII has a lot more rudder authority.  Both SPADs now have less authority, and the XIII can pretty comfortably pull full elevator deflection turns....which it definitely couldn't before...

Pfalz D.III and Albatros feel like they have more authority than before, as does the Dr.I by the looks of it - but not as significant a change as the D.XII. 


EDIT:    Ok, the N28 has Significantly more rudder authority as well, similarly to Pfalz XII

...I don't know about the other planes, but the SPAD XIII feels EXACTLY  like 'simplified physics' is turned on...(and no, I didn't have it on)







Has anyone else noticed any other FM changes in other planes?

Yeah, we just tested Camel vs Albatros....Albatros flies rings around the camel now. Ridiculous...

Reserving full judgement for now, I'd have to assume that this many unannounced "FM changes" are the result of some kind of bug

UPDATE:

Rudder issue acknowledged by Han. He's working on it. Mods, feel free to delete this thread.
