Why does the default Fw190s stall so often in combat. Ive flown the 109s and they make tight manuvers well. All the other German aircraft dnt have this problem. When i make a tight turn at minimum speed in a 190 it always stalls. The US and British fighters larger than this bird dnt stall in tight turns, can anyone tell me wats up with that?

BTW: I fly the 190 clean with no additional external ammo or tanks

To start with the default FW190A is poorly done in flight characteristics.
Get a couple from Aviation History and see how much better they can be.

However, the FW190A was not a good turner or climber. It was a great roller and diver and fast in a straight line, could carry large amounts of ordinance or ammo.
One must fly such an aircraft to its strengths and not as one flies a Spitfire (nothing flies like a Spitfire anyway)
Best to keep your speed up in a 190

Thanks for the tip Ill try keeping it up a bit. BTW how long are the campaigns, I see where they can be shortened pending the amount of damage you do, is that true or not?

Could someone fix the landing gear on Fw-190, please, it is totally false.
