Flight Model for aircrafts of Western Front Patch 2

This FM is suited as is ONLY for WFP2-Release9 and higher, which requires mandatory GabiLaser's "ReLoad" program with "Front Guns" option enabled to be executed.
This FM works only in "authentic" mode (in RB3D Realism Settings). Historical (where available) or realistic breaking load factors have been set. More realistic effectiveness of control surfaces has been added as well, plus a lot of minor improvements.

Flight Model for stock aircrafts of RB3D

This FM is suited for stock aircrafts of RB3D. It uses SWWISA wing aerofoils, so they are included. It is based on Panama Red's BetaFMS8 and works only in "authentic" mode (in RB3D Realism Settings). All aircrafts have been thoroughly revised to get them as close as possible to their historical characteristics.
Latest changes:
Reduced power outputs of rotary engines by 10% to keep count of windage losses (actual value was applied where available). Corrected top speed of Halberstadt D.II, Nieuport 17, Nieuport 24 and Fokker Dr I.

Flight Model for aircrafts of Hell's Angels "SuperPatch"

This FM is suited for Hell's Angels "SuperPatch" by Otto von Stachel. It uses new wing aerofoils by Rens, so they are included. It is based on Panama Red's BetaFMS8 and works only in "authentic" mode (in RB3D Realism Settings). All aircrafts have been thoroughly revised to get them as close as possible to their historical characteristics.
Latest changes:
Fixed tendency to stall and spin of Fokker E III. Added latest Zinteck's damage model.
Unhistorical arc-firing front guns have been removed and damage model modified accordingly ("bomber gunner" deactivated, where applicable, so to prevent game crash as happens when these two parameters do not match). As a consequence you have two option: ONE - launch program by Gabi's ReLoad with its Front Guns option activated to have two-seaters pilots firing their fixed guns straight in front of them or TWO - launch with Front Guns deactivated (or even without ReLoad) to have only rear gunners firing at you. Of course, aircrafts having real swivelling front guns, like F.E.2, will continue to arc-fire at you also from their front side!

New in version 4: Improved ailerons effectiveness of all "sesquiplane" Nieuports. Slightly corrected Pfalz D XII equivalent wingspan (according to Munk's factor).

Western Front Historical Flight Model - French 1

This patch was put together for a better and more historical SP enjoyment of the 22 flyable planes (it can be used for MMP too). WFHFM is for the standard RB planes as well as for the French or Germans flying against the French (the standard RB game uses the French version of the Nieuports).

Western Front Historical Flight Model - French 2

This patch was put together for a better and more historical SP enjoyment of the 22 flyable planes. WFHFM is for the standard RB planes as well as for the French or Germans flying against the French. The main reason for this patch is to have an accurate French N24/27 with one Vickers MG versus the inaccurate two Vickers MG that S/D modeled. You will need the French plane patche to correctly show these changes.

French Plane patch

This Nieuport N24/27 plane patch is for use with the WFHFMF21 patch. This 3D model reflects the historical fact that 98% of all French Nieuport N24/27's had a single Vickers MG versus the twin Vickers MG. The other 2% use 1 Vickers and 1 Lewis MG.

Western Front Historical Flight Model - British 1

The main reason for this new WFHFM-B1 patch is to reflect accurate British planes for the British sector. These new planes consist of the Nieuport N16, Nieuport N17 w/Lewis, Nieuport N24 w/Lewis, Airco DH5, SPAD VII (150 HP), and Sopwith Dolphin. You will need the associated WFBr1LoR plane patch to correctly show the new planes and changes. This patch is for use of an individual who either flies as a British pilot or as a German flying against the British and can be used for UOP's with the standard RB planes except for ROTJ 2 .
