Messerschmitt BF109E - Aerofly FS Development Teaser #15

One more aircraft is coming to Aerofly FS 4 - the German WWII fighter Messerschmitt Bf109e (a.k.a. Me109). Here are some more screenshots of this stunning aircraft. And yes, the slats are working and provide that little bit of extra stall margin that this fighter needs to fly really tight maneuvers. This aircraft will be part of the Aerofly FS 4 Aircraft AddOn DLC.

Very Interesting … BUT!

Thanks Jan, does the propeller pitch ‘clock’ on the right of the instrument panel work, it gives information on what the electric propeller control is doing and do the slats pop out independently if the slip ball is not in the middle? It is a 109 characteristic.

Yes, the propeller pitch indication works. At the moment the slats pop out symmetrically but I can change that.

That would be appropriate Jan, some aileron snatch and a trace pulse of yaw in the presence of significant slip ball deflection when pulling high g would match with pilot reports. The slats were supposed to deploy smoothly in normal flying, flying a Socata Rallye they extended gently as speed dropped and went back the other way with a trace of forward stick - an actual stick in the interesting Rallye. They were linked together in the Rallye. In high g 109 manoeuvres they were said to slam forward with a loud bang. The 109 had low stability in yaw so keeping the ball in the middle needed work.

This pilot report gives some nice handling hints https://theairtacticalassaultgroup.com/forum/archive/…php/t-2482.html
