  1. Did you use that belly tank on ground at lower engine power? In that case, you did have insufficient air pressure to get fuel from external tank. To get enought air pressure you need some RPM above idle.
  2. Could be set "auto rudder" or "take-off assistance" in special menu.
  3. Here are two pictures showing "swirl throttle" from handbuch. These "flaps - Leitschaufel" control air volume passing through supercharger. And youtube video where Calum Douglas explains basic about "swirl throttle"
  4. You can't enable it. It is not possible to activate something what does not exist. It is only mistake in DCS manual.
  5. Yes, the feathering requires elecricity. Each propeller has independent feathering pump driven by electrical motor which is supplied from batery (generator).
  6. It is because P-47D's engine isn't equiped with any kind of manifold pressure regulator (boost control).
  7. Yes, but without CFTs. Plane is slower with them. With them airspeed limit is 700 Knots CAS, somewhere around M2 at your altitude (800 without CFTs). It does not mean that you can not reach higher airpeed, i know. I was able to reach 2.23M at 45k altitude, standard atmosphere and with clean plane. Speed limit for 45k feet is even lower than 700 Knots CAS, i was quite out of envelope..
  8. The F-14 as a NAVY aircraft does not have capability to cooperate with ILS system. The ICLS system which the F-14 has is quite different and it is not compatible with standard ILS system. It is possible to use ILS localizer as a simple NDB beacon.
  9. It is most likely bug. Several strokes were required in past for engine start. The descripion of the DB 605A engine run-up mentions engine prime as a one step in engine preparation for start. (this is copied in DCS manual) Unfortunately manual for plane with DB 605D, wich we have, is not available, but there is no single evidence of any change in engine run-up procedure. At least so far.
  10. I did it as a trigger zone. It was set for ship in trouble wich did not move, unfortunately i have no idea how to do it for moving ship.
  11. The Anton with 1,42 ATA engine wasn't capable to reach 600kph. Speed around 550kph at sea levet is correct for it. DCS clean Anton with closed coolant flaps reaches slightly above 540kph, it is not so bad. The Anton with bomb rack and open coolant flaps will lose around 30kph from maximal speed, 10+kph for each.
  12. I do not know if it is work online, probably yes. but only IF: 1st It is modern map Caucasus, Marianas or Syria ... No WWII map has any airport with ILS system (which make sense). 2nd mission creator must preset frequency for one airport's ILS system in correct format e.g. Akrotiri on Syria has ILS with frequency 109,70MHz and to receive signal from this ILS, "AFN-2 Base Frequency" must be changed in the ME from default (38) to 109,7. And then it will work, but only for this airport.
  13. The An-2 has ASh-62, not 82. It is quite different engine. If you look for plane with the same engine like La-7 has, then Il-14 or Mi-4.
  14. Just only one note. ILS systems in DCS do not transmit A and N in morse code. They only transmit DOT and DASH like LORENZ blind landing system did. So, DETROLA receives only dot, dash or solid tone, depends on your position to landing centreline. Mosquito has LORENZ blind landing system receiver, R.I. compass, and it cooperate with modern ILS system in DCS. (Not IRL of course, but in DCS W does)
  15. The Detrola receiver itself is functional in DCS. For both, the Mustang and the Thunderbolt, or it was. I think it was introduced with Mosquito. It is (was) practicable only on modern maps with ILS systems which serve as a A-N beacons, somehow... The detrola must by tuned in way that for example 110MHz ILS frequency is tuned as 210kHz on Detrola. Recently i was able to do it on Marianas map.
  16. Fug-16 was radio communication device. FuG-25 was identification friend or foe device. So, they were not interchangeable, each had its own purpose.
  17. The engine setting 1,7ATA / 3250RPM (Sondernotleistung 1900PS) was not posible for the engine with the MW-50. The engine with the MW had only "normal" Start u.Notleistung 1,5ATA / 3250 RPM (1770 PS) without the MW and 1,8ATA / 3250 RPM (Sondernotleistung 2100PS) with the MW.
  18. Auto start does not switch On "Guvernor Automation" - auto RPM control. It is probably the reason for failure.
  19. If you want skin in game core folder, proper place is: :\DCS World OpenBeta\CoreMods\WWII Units\MosquitoFBMkVI\Liveries\MosquitoFBMkVI
  20. -5 had water injection, the biggest difference between them (even the last production -3s had it too) -5 had different windshield with simplified frame -5 had deleted small windows behind cockpit (early -5 had them) -5 had separate oil and intercooler flaps controls (-3 had one lever for both) -5 had capability to carry HVARs They had some minor difference between them in cockpit.
  21. means lights, long row of lights with several cross-lines
  22. I had exactly the same question when video was released. It is not US base, US map from Summer 1945 does not show any base there. IMHO, it is not precisely placed 2nd Japanese airfield on Guam. North Field (later US Agana? ). But it is only my guess according to this map ...
