About the new FMs and engine power math.

I've only done some low-level stuff in a Bf109E-4 and E-4/B but I like what I've seen so far. Granted it's not the same as it was but it's not that far off that with a little time I won't be able to learn to ride the envelope of my aircraft again. The thing that is really going to take some getting used to is the new DM. Again not a bad thing just a new thing

I have almost no personal experience on which to base my opinion. Having said that, I have always loved the "feeling of flight" in Cliffs, and I'm happy to report it's still there. A joy just to fly around sightseeing.

Wondering if the braking power on the 109 is off. I checked and I have the full throw with my pedals but still its really hard to get that Bf109 to turn even at very low speeds. Seems the aircraft just wants to go straight ahead until you get a little speed up. Also, there are some awfully big holes in the airfields now as my Bf109 likes to lean to the right as if I have one wheel stuck in a hole when I am sitting still and not on the runway or taxiway.

I've noticed the same things (braking and also leaning) with the Spitfire and the Hurricane as well.

I'm pretty sure taxiing has been tweaked and is more realistic now...None of the aircraft turn like they did at slow taxiing speeds...You need a lot more airflow over those control surfaces to get the aircraft to swing left or right...I think that is correct with reality....Too manoeuvrable before...
