Top speeds for Hawk 75 A3 and A4 ok.
#1

I saw somewhere on this site ( can't find it now ) where someone was complaining about the top speeds being too slow for the Curtiss Hawks. This person also said the Moranes were too slow but I did not test those.

Being concerned I decided to check the Hawks out. Went to the FMB and put them both through the speed tests at sea level and at best TAS altitudes on the Kuban map. Both are a couple of knots slow on their rated top speeds at those two best altitudes. A couple knots too slow is about what you want because most production planes never reach the rated top speed that the test planes do.

Just so everybody knows, if you test top speeds, do it on the Kuban map, this map is at standard temperature and it's the map Oleg himself used to take planes through their speed tests.

Thats nice.

BTW; even if they were wrong - they will remain wrong - oleg made those fm's so;


THERE WILL BE NO FM/WM/DM MODS HERE - UNLESS ITS FOR A NEW SLOT AIRCRAFT

For the record, Crimea is Oleg's testing map, not Kuban (even though they are similar, or near similar).

...not important anymore since we can edit conditions for every map ....

these are conditions from default Crimea :

[WORLDPOS]
CAMOUFLAGE = SUMMER
MONTH=7
DECLIN = 54

Whoa!! Take it easy dude....Chillax a little!! Are all Kiwis that uptight?
For one thing there was nothing in my post that inferred that I was asking anyone to mod an FM, DM or
weapon, nor did I suggest I was going to. I didn't see any other posts from others saying anything of the sort either. Holy carp!!

Fearfactor, if you are familiar with the crap that this site has gone through in the last year from anti modders who think we are the source of all evil you will understand RAF_Magpie's response.

With the influx of new users of mods here the staff is just making sure the policy is well known, no foul.

Yes, thank you Forager & Slow.

And Fearfactor, did you bother to read all my post, or did you just focus on the pretty big red words?

Its not a hard concept really to grasp is it?

Some people just don't know how to read stickies. Your red words now certainly DO attract, that's the sunny side of the situation.
