Title: If the D-VII had been a truck . . .

The D-VII will not roll! The aileron roll rate is like that of a DC-3. The plane flies more like a truck than a nimble fighter. The D-VII was far more maneuverable than this sim. The flight dynamics need to be revised somewhere short of a Pitts special. IL2's D-VII is much more representative of the aircraft than this very disappointing version.

Thanks for the feedback. I've noted it for our next update block to fine tune the flight model a bit more. :)
