Yeah the mw50 isnt available on 4ya. Im tryin to figure out what happened. Ive not touched the mw50 switch or radiators. Popping the cb's for the mw50 shouldnt have an effect if you dont turn on mw50. Ive not used an dora with the mw50 tank filled with b4. So no switching aswell. Someones suggested taking off with 50 deg on oil and coolant and he ran fine. But appatently he ran into some engine failures aswell just recently. I tried sp cold start with different temps and she was running fine. Even with an air spawn 90 deg temps initially and its all good. I literally had no probs with her before but 2 dead engines in the same sortie is pretty rare.

Was flying mp today and my doras engine died twice today once i accelerated past 3000 u/min at about 6000m on the first t/o i warmed her up to about 70°C and rolled to the runway and took off with about 90°C. Climbed with 3250 until i reached 400kmh then throttled back to 3000 u/min At 6k i kept crusing with about 2700 u/min, all fine, stable. once i pushed past 3000 u /min i just noticed slight vibrations then it immediatelly died. On the 2nd i let her warm up to 90°C then rolled off and took off with 3250 but throttled back to 3000 once i reached 300kph and climbed to 6k. All fine and swell. 100°C constantly at 2700 u/min. Pushed my throttle forward past 3000 u/min. Same thing. Died almost instantly. I just noticed that radiator flaps were closed, but upon t/o and flight they were wide open. I did not touch them on both occasions. Track file https://1drv.ms/u/s!AqPXiw0yQDEVgkquAPHQyTYvwzpb?e=f20gTN It is strange as i basically t/o with the same procedures and never experienced this. Whoops sorry, just noticed wrong subforum @NineLine please be so kind and move it into the bugs/problemd section?

Any tips for dogfighting / manouvering?
Doughguy replied to Viceman's topic in DCS: Fw 190 A-8 Anton
if you experience this you simply pull too hard and stall your brick. if your cockpit shakes it means youre close to stalling. dont pull harder or ease on the pull. that characteristic can be used for quick rolls when in danger but it should not be your bread n butter. -

They should work in both. -
It sounds like youre pulling to hard. if you start rolling, keep stick back to lock tailwheel. if you start your roll and youre about to reach 100mph center the stick gradually. the snap roll happens because you stall your plane.
-
rule of thumb: cockit is shaking = close to stall. it is ok if youre riding her on the stall just dont push her over the edge. stalls come abrubtly! pull the stick gentle. but you can pull it alot, but do it gradually. youll get the hang on how much you can pull.

Fliege nun schon seit nem guten halben Jahr mit SRF und man merkt, dass die Leute Ahnung von dem haben was Sie tun. Man lernt schnell, es macht Spaß und man findet immer wen, mit dem man ne Runde drehen kann. Sei es 4ya ww2, jets, oder einfach nur ne Trainingsrunde. Workshops finden regelmäßig und Etappenweise statt. Lernkurve ist steil, aber man richtet sich nach den Neuen, auf deren Fragen man eingeht. Die Events sind auch toll anzusehen und freue mich auch ggf. bei einem der nächsten mit von Bord sein zu können. Wer also was über fundierte Fliegerei, Jagdfliegerei mit sehr nettem Menschen sucht, wird hier absolut fündig!

you still have to drop bomb first, then rockets can be used. its not possible to jettison the rack. only the bomb, or BR21. iirc, the wirering is as intended.

Proposal to the ED Modelers Regarding the Hellcat
Doughguy replied to Magic Zach's topic in DCS: Hellcat F6F
As mentioned on the discord, this could extend to killmarkings. -
Well im pretty sure one can code lines to detect, how often wild manouvering happens and add "fatigue" if forms of control inputs getting stiffer/delayed, blackouts /red outs occur faster and become stronger/longer and one has to enter a cool down time, just like machine guns have a modeled fatigue. of course we cannot model a persons physique, as all that is individual, but its definately possible to add limits.

Hey there, correct as intented. By pilots accounts, and some photographic evidence the wings, and sometimes also the whole plane, were polished with simoniz carwax. If you look at attached pictures, youll notice the darker areas on the front part of the wing, which after some conclusion, is waxpolish. that respective area is riveted and exposed to the airflow more, contrary to the aft portion behind the wing spar. it appears that only that portion of the wing was waxed, due to the situation in 44/45, namely supply shortages. also, the wings of the dora were most likely puttied in that very area. if you have a close look at my doras wings, this is also represented. instead of full blown rivets one has subdued dimples. and a layer of wax. im no aero enginieer, but i guess you understand what i mean. With the lua files, you could basically make your own chopped up versions. All dora variants reference 1/JG301 for their normals. you can keep these in their resective folder, or copy and rename them in your "own". I dont mind if you do this for private use. Not much mumbo jumbo really. {"FW-190_01", 0 ,"FW-190D9_14_SL_JG26_1_d",false}; "FW-190_01" = material name (material for aft section indicated by 01. 02 is front section. 03 and 04 are wings. this is predetermined in the model) 0 tells you , that this is for the diffuse (color) "FW-190D9_14_SL_JG26_1_d" name of the texturefile, which is situated in the folder the lua is located. here it would be FW-190D9_14_SL for convenience. the _1 suffix ive added so it is clear that it corresponds with FW-190_01 = aft section material. the _d suffix means that its the diffuse map, as we also have the _r suffix, which is the roughmat Now, if you want to reference a texture from another folder the line goes like this: {"FW-190_01", 0 ,"../FW-190D9_1_JG301/FW-190D9_1_d",false}; The trick is the ../ which tells the lua, to go one folder up, out of its native folder, and into /FW-190D9_1_JG301/ from which it picks "FW-190D9_1_d" as a diffuse map. However, if you copy all your wanted textures for one livery in one "new" older, it doesnt matter, since the lua will always load the textures from its native folder. you just have to be consistent with naming! file name and the name in the lua must match. -
color looks good! i think the culprit is the roughmat texture. the dora has the same problem. nightmare! very cool sturmbock skin tho!

Nope, still not active. Already submitted to user files tho some hours ago. Monday i guess its weekend. -
Dirt is dirt, however, with the ammount of shine on the canopy, it appears they´re rather sandblasted and not high gloss. you cannot avoid reflections on glass/plexiglass. thats a fact. just as scratches and residue in nooks n cranies around frames. Adjustment is needed.

Power Settings for Dora (Cant keep the engine from overheating)
Doughguy replied to Winger's topic in DCS: Fw 190 D-9 Dora
20 - 25 u/min (cant recall ata, but that autoadjusts) is your regular modus operandi, as in continuous flying setting. 25 - 30+ is combat setting. 30 is limited to 30 mins. 32+ (with mw50) 3 mins make your you warm up your engine according to manual. most common error. i dont touch the cowflaps. the auto regulation works great. i only touch these if the engine is damaged and i need extra cooling. i only engage mw50 additionally and if i need it badly, eg. to extand from an enemy or that extra boost if i wanna climb like a scared monkey on a rope. the circuit brakes are switched on all the time. i only operate the mw50 switch when needed. some leave it on permanently and go past 30 u/min if they wanna engage that, but you might be too focused on manouvering forget it for severl mins and then your engine quits. -

Sadly had to drop the Josef Priller livery, since the 3d mesh around the exhaust has its UVW´s skewed too much, so that specific ornament found on Prillers D9 would end up all wonky.. I chose Black 5 of Stab/Jg.26 instead. Very interesting mottling. Reused the wings of a JG.301 dora, as it appears the pattern and colors were quite similar tellin by pictures. -
