CJ how much does your plane weigh? Maybe 2000-3000lbs loaded? Whats its wing loading? Whats its stall speed? I dont belive there can be any comparison...

Hazed, the only thing you did wrong (if you did anything wrong at all) is not film it.

RAE did tests of Bf 109E, Ju 88, and He 111 doing flat (wings level) turns. They all did about 2 deg/sec at about 180 mph. It's a maneuver that all of the planes should be able to do.

So does it work in other AH planes? 109s, 190s, la5s, spits?

If it doesnt then something is wrong.

I ran some quick tests just over sea level with 50% fuel in each plane.

Comparison of some AH planes in flat rudder turn right 180dgr with full power.

190f8 50sec at 180mph
109g6 55-60sec at 200mph
La5fn 50sec at 200mph
P51d 50sec at 200mph
SpitIX 45sec 220mph
F4u1-c 45sec at 190-200mph

B17G 13-15sec at 120mph
Ju88a4 60sec at 140mph

F4u looks completely normal here. I guess hazed was talking about something else.

Whats up with that b17?

Also Ju88 is bit far from 20dgr/sec that funked posted. In AH its more like 3dgr/sec.(with 180mph even less i think)

I think Funked made a typo...should be 2 deg/sec (120 deg/min).

funked · « **Reply #37 on:** April 18, 2001, 07:25:00 PM »

Wells I didn't make a typo, I just can't divide.

B-17G Rudder Turn Rate Too High.

Karnak · « **Reply #39 on:** April 19, 2001, 10:17:00 AM »

What about our other bombers? Do the Lancaster or B-26 rudder turn too fast as well? Because the Lanc is also a 4 engined bomber, I'd be curious to see the results on it.

Karnak you idiot! Lanc is not an US bomber!

Its not about how many motors it has, its all about national markings.

...thats what rudderturn is all about.

ps. use same formula for perk planes. How many US planes are perked?
