How do I change the P51 drones to something else, like B17 formations???

Unfortunately, you can't.

I too would like the ability to change the drones.

go to H2H arena and tell the noobs there that the idea of game is to see who can circle round base 100 times in b17 first, kinda like pylon racing... infact name your arena RENO AIR RACE.

then up an a8 and shoot em down.

i actually posted a suggestion for this a while back...

a DOT command like <.drone XXX> where XXX = the plane number.

possibly a <.dronepattern XXX> where XXX is the pattern they fly in.

pattern 1 is the normal counterclockwise circle
pattern 2 is a clockwise circle
pattern 3 is a straight line between the base you are at to the nearest other base, then poof and back to the start.
pattern 4 is a normal circle, but with the drones climbing, and diving either in a set pace, or random occurences. set the climb to 2K above the normal alt, and the dive to 1k below the normal alt.

probably a pain to code the "AI" of it though sadly.

Is there a previous post that outlined the official command codes to do this?

There will have to be some sorta similar coding when TOD arrives.
