Thanks. I dont know how its possible but it seems to work with 4.10 and DBW-1916 too.

VP,

 This is because I compiled the button for DBW. It works in HSFX6 because I use the 00_PAL-AutoDiffFM-HSFX6 and am able to use most of the 1916 planes in either ModAct 4.1.1m or HSFX 6.

Jack

ps the airplane does have elevator trim - a cheat I know.  ;)

ONLY with a ton of help from Jack.

Sorry for this question, but it's any chance to put functional gauges in this plane cockpit?

At least an altimeter, a tachometer and a magnetic compass. The instruments in the current cockpit look somewhat erratic or non-functional. And there's no compass.

Welcome to World War One Flying!!
 Nothing much worked on any of these old airplanes anyway. Many things were always breaking down.
So you will just have to fly without instruments.

It may be that this model is not completely finished just yet, but just like the real machines
of their time, they also had many things breaking down and not working properly. So a pilot must use
his skills and hold on to his "Good Luck" charm :D

Oh, I forgot to mention, to all new pilots to WW1 flying... you have about 6 weeks to live at the Western Front.
So make the best of it! Good luck!

17 Hours?
Damn
That´s better than my time flying at the controls of these wicked machines in the IL2-Mods!  :D
Those guys were sure brave pilots.
Most likely that time of 17-hours life expectancy was around the time of the "Fokker scourge" when the
German air force started using machine guns shooting through the propeller. Once the allies got their
aircraft using the same mechanism , the odds started looking better for all allied pilots then.

The Fokker scourge was around 1915 - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fokker_Scourge

Your probably right Max!  :) I was thinking it may have been Bloody April, when the skies were black with Albatross fighters, but I completely forgot about the fokker scourge.

Hi, fresco23. If you want to see BE2Cs, Eindeckers, and Albatross C1s in action, check out YouTube. Type Wings BBC. If you just type in Wings; you'll get the crap Hollywood series, or stuff about pop music. Both series are there. I downloaded several installments yesterday.


cheers

David
