Session 1 - Aircraft

The Sopwith Snipe is an advanced Sopwith Camel. It has a larger engine and larger guns. The aerodynamics are better than the camel too, so it can do better maneuvers. One of the problems is the Snipe is very shaky and unstable. If you cannot controll it then you will have a hard time in combat. Since the plane is unstable, aim is very hard in the Snipe and needs much practice.


The Fokker D7 is one of the snipes worst enemies. Since snipe doesn't aim well then the d7 gets a good uber and pulls out of your sights and ubers* before you can damage it enough to the point where the wings would snap. therefore, you should get good at engine shots and head shots.



You might end up in the unfortunate position of fighting a Albatros D.III or and Albatros D.V. My only advice is to, if you can, get as many bullets into the damn planes wings as you can. Therefore, hopefully, they will snap. If not then try a turning fight. The alb will always out-loop a snipe unless there is damage to the empennage of the alb.
The rule to Red Baron 3D is the more speed you have, the more maneuverable your plane is. If you dont have a lot of speed then your plane will become an easy target.



NEXT























Uber (Super)-A plane ubers when it gets damage. The uber is when instead of the plane's flight performance going worse it has more capabilites do to the Flight Model from Sierra. The D7 is the best uber becuase it has strong wings and can pull more G-forces. The Snipe ubers, but is a lot harder to fly when it is ubered. Mainly all of the planes uber, so remember headshots are your goal.


Empenage- The tail section of the aircraft. Including Horizantal and vertical stabalizers, rudder, and elevator.
