I can't figure out if it's 20 minutes of recording time because of the batteries or the fact that's it's 1080p HD quality of video and they lack storage space. Both seem a little weird for a device to have issues with in 2016, but I guess they had to make some sacrifices.
I have played with the Lercher death trap.
Its just plain garbage but you can cut B-29's in pieces with the cannon and aiming isnt bad either. I dont remember if it has that useless of-centre scope like the BF-109's (which are one of my favorite ones.Its Funny how the engine gradually loses Power and you crash land every couple Flights
Its also got these weird wire-controlled rockets which I never learned how to operate.
I have played with the Horten a few times... It flies and lands quite well actually when its not catching Fire.
But nothing Compares with the all around trashyness of the IL-2...

The cannon was great but it's a shame it had such a small amount of ammo to it. Much like the Me-163...which was great to fly but good luck landing the thing
Ahh the X-4 missiles. They were fun to use, only against straight and level bombers though. I think other guided weapons were added over time.
Haha I loved the early versions of the IL-2. I played with it online once, dropped a load of napalm like bombs along a convoy and set fire to a 109 that was pursuing me. Great times
So... terribly crappy...
Ah yes. The cluster bombs that you throw over convoys... They work pretty well actually... But for such "tasks" I usually got a B-25 with lots of parafrag bombs
So funny when you forget to put a delay and eeeverything goes boom.

Those parafrags were great but they needed a little bit of skill to aim them right, and they were also banned online for creating a bit of lag which was a shame
Some bombs though were pretty weird, mainly many weapons the IL-2 used. Clusters, napalms...but the best weapons it had were it's cannons and machine guns
Exactly!
I'll never get tired of that sound of them going off while I'm chasing Luftwaffe planes
I think they are even more flimsy built then rc cars.
The I-16's guns are amazing
Say, did you ever manage to tip the wings of one of the V-1's? I tried once and the thing ripped my wing off!
(With a single Kerozzzeeeeene! engine )
Huh, I wonder how tough those drones are. I don't imagine much though. Would probably break apart if it fell from the air.kinda yeah.
You could check some figures Online probably. DJI is one kinda Famous brand of drones. A lot of ads For used drones in the Photo classifieds sites.
Another thing I read is that they can fly with 4 / 5 From the rotors but not with 3/4 ...
I would feel much safer if that 200 kg lithium Flying bomb had 5 rotors!
Ah no... after a point I could not fly the very fruity old ones.
I played a lot with the Mig-9 though. I think its are of my favorites in the game! I like it even more than the mig-l7 and that Panther garbage that was supposed to be carrier based but you could only take off when it was empty!
At least they had Fire extinguishers though.
Tip the wings like Crash it to shoot it down?
I dont think I ever played V-1 anything. I played a high altitude chase thing (maybe a V1 or some recon bullsh it) once with a Spitfire but it was sooo boring.
The F-86 was nicely modelled with Hsfx.

Sometimes the old'uns are the best'uns haha
Hmm almost crashing. It was an actual practice performed where the fighter would position his wing under the V-1's wing and then tilt it up and over so that it crashed. That was done as well as shooting them until they exploded but often the fighter got caught up in the blast shockwave.
There was loads of nicely modelled things in HSFX. I haven't played it in a while, but does that mod include the cockpit for the Fw-189?
Yeah it had a few versions oF it actually.
I dont remember the cockpit but it had a very hardcore Version with a huge cannon somewhere.
Are we thinking of the same plane? Only one I remember that had a huge cannon on it was the Hs-129. Terrible accuracy but it sure looked good. Also the Hs-129 had terrible performance
It was the Hs 129. Some were quite good.
My bad.
Dont remember the accuracy. But I think it held very limited ammo..
Have you played with any of the Italian ones?
Which ones do you like of the Italian ones?
It had under 20 rounds I think? Something like that
Hmm, I've played some of them but the the ones I like the most are the Cr-42 and that tri-plane bomber
