Sopwith Camel

Recommended Posts

Many thanks for bringing this to Arma 3. I realy loved flying them back in Arma 1 alot. But there is one thing about them which i do not like. You can do hard 90 degress turns and keep doing them the whole time without loosing speed. In case of dogfights you do not have to consider your speed to keep that thing in air anymore and so does the opponent. While that might be funny and a laugh it is far from being a challange as it is leading to people just turning around each other in very close curves. If there is any possibility for a version which flies like back in Arma 1 were crashes due to pilot mistakes happened because right now i can do all crazy stuff with them and would never crash.

Anyway, good work.

@Mad T

yes I will probly add a more difficult version too. But I certainly will hang on to this mad style in some way or another : )

Probly the veteran style thing will be another plane to select or a plugin.

Looks like the base Mk82 are lockable and guided.

Because I used those as base for my MkII and Grenades those are guided too : D

Don't get attached to this feature : )

will fix next update sometime next week or two

Hey, an idea I had ... would it be possible to have a long flag object following the plane like a banner? That would be awesome.

Like so:

I guess it would : )

You could try to attach some stuff with the attach to command.

Working on all those other planes has teached me a lot. Currently I am preparing a new version of the camel as well:

 

Flight model is changed to airplaneX. That allows us to push the plane around on ground as well fix some of the issues it had with taking off much too easily : )

Theres still that ridiculous arcade style flight model as well as a more difficult 'realistc' version.

Planes can be found in the base factions Blue,Red and Green for easier access.

Iron sights aligned better

Instruments actually move now

 

Download Test Version (please don't redistribute yet : ) )
