But it is enough that the RFB team is working on a replacement to be part of RFB and most probably released independently as well.
It is a monumental undertaking because each ship must be individually tuned in its own file within the mod. Each ship has to be tweaked, tested, tweaked.... repeat as necessary. Each test means restarting the game. So the cycle is more like tweak, restart, (Q@#$@#!$!!!), test, (@!#$$~!!!), tweak, restart, cuss some more, repeat until exhausted.
It will be worth the wait.

Not to mention the various ship types introduced by mods such as RSRDC and/or OM. All in all, a royal headache!
With regards to the two mods, what it really boils down to is: it's a matter of personal preference. Try them both, keep the one you like and, if you're feeling adventurous enough, READ READ READ READ this forum to understand how things work and maybe do a mix and match? It's not really that hard, once you get the hang of it
