Supercharger Critical Altitude and Max. Manifold pressure?
Hello again!
Looking further into the engine parameters on the AI Do-17 .air file, I noticed Max. Manifold Pressure very high at 60.445, and also Critical altitude at 22400 ft. This would more likely fit a late WW2 supercharger!
Looking into other early WW2 models , it would be more realistic around perhaps 42 for Max MP and 17000 ft for critical altitude, and as I canīt find the values for the Bramo Fafnir Superchargers anywhere, this educated guess is for the moment the only solution. Of course, changing Max MP and CA requires changing some other parameters, but that will be no problem.
The first trials in this sense seem to provide similar engine and aircraft performance results as the first tests, but we shall see!
Cheers,

Fuselage and wing root progressing
Hello!
I used a shoulder component for the fuselage around the rear cabin, hollowing out for the wing-root, and it seems to work.
(As yet, inner wings are 2D, and the fuselage belly is still trapezoid - will be more rounded though).
Here are some screenshots. Of course, a different matter will be once the cabinglass parts are placed, but that is for another day.
Cheers,
