  1. The P-47M had the same engines like the N models. Not like the D models with "field mods". In fact it was D-30 with the engine from N model. R-2800 "C" series instead of "B" series, it had higher maximal revolution 2800 vs. 2700 RPM.
  2. Unfortunately it is. The AFN-2 is useless without receiver. It is only indicator of the NDB with FuG-16. And that is all what the single seat LW fighter planes have in DCS W. If you want to know how these devices work and what they need, i would recomend this:
  3. It is pointless to have Lorenz blind landing system at airfiels in France. No one Luftwaffe plane in DCS W has receiver for that system. Much more suitable would be simple NDBs (German WWII). The FuG-16ZY with AFN-2 is the right device for them and is in all planes. (unfortunately it does not work properly in any)
  4. The Lorenz blind landing system could be also placed at RAF stations, old pre-war. Great Britain used this system as a SBA (Standard Beam Approach). I think GB bought licence for it before WWII. It was written in one book about air navigation, but without ani further details. The Mosquito has receiver for SBA in DCS W.
  5. Pilot could activate "forsazh" on the La-5FN for both supercharger's gears because "forsazh" had separate control lever. But it was prohibited for the second gear due to possible engine damage and supercharger weakness. This was impossible in the case of the La-7, with the same engine, due to "connecting rod", which controled "forsazh", connected with the superchatger control. So, when supercharger was set to 2nd gear this "connecting rod" close forsazh and reduced maximal possible MP to nominal value 1000 mmHG. am sorry, i do not have this picture in one piece.. and here is about installing that "forsazh connecting rod"
  6. Well, when i read the last La-7 news i was thinking that you mixed together information about ASh-82F (La-5F) and ASh-82FN (La-5FN and La-7). You just proved that. btw. forsazh was allowed after engine been running for 10 hours on nominal power setting max, after that few modifications could be done to "open" 1200 mmHg/2500RPM (factory setting was only 1000 mmHg/2400 RPM) ... am looking forward to see this simulated in DCS W
  7. With all respect, engine manual you preseted here says 5 minutes for "forsazh" (WEP). La-7 manual says 10 minutes.
  8. 1st column - serial production plane 2nd column - the same plane after upgrades (note 2) 3rd column - serial production plane 4th column - serial production plane Again plane No. 45210150 like above and plane No. 45210139.
  9. Planes with RF loops were only used in C.B.I. theatre by combat units. For Marianas we need early models, Razorbacks, with Bazooka rocket launchers which were used by VII AF there.
  10. It is because the turbo signalization has been changed with the D-25 model and later. Film one shows and is about older model than the D-25.
  11. Be sure that you have saved both folders with controls for the Mustangs, P-51D and P-51D-30-NA. (system / user / ... / saved games / DCS / Config / Imput / ... ) Your problem is probably connected with this issue.
  12. You must set the flap handle to NEUTRAL position, without it all pressure produced by the emergency pump will move with flaps and will not pressurize hydraulic accumulator. Unfortunately even though you set the flap handle in to neutral position, it will behave weird and not correctly, you will see.
  13. Do you have set hot key command for mirror? "Toggle Mirrors" in category View cockpit
  14. Do not follow this advice to keep turbo off under 7000ft. It is for low octane fuel and not for one in game. Just keep the engine within its limits, means do not exceed MP above 52inHg without water and 64inHg with water injection for 2700 RPM and you will be fine. And of course watch temperatures.
  15. Unfortunately eagle 1-1 is right. After 20 minutes long flight (3000 RPM) and proper engine starting with waiting for engine teperature, the engine lost power.
  16. This "controls separation" was done at least year ago. For the Mustang and the Spitfire.
  17. Be sure you have both folders with controls for both planes. (in C/user/saved games/DCS/Config/Imput/...) If not, make missing one and copy there files from the first.
  18. Check diffeerent category, i think that commands for camera are not in "View cockpit" in case F-14.
  19. The 1st picture is from current template downloaded today from ED site. It has smaller ammo bay lines (like the P-51A/B/C), smaller gun bay. The 2nd shows current skin directly from game folder, Miss Velma, it is based on "newer" base or whatever.. It has correct volume for ammo bay and gun bay looks more corresponding with real one. Am not sure about fuselage part.
  20. It is caused by using official texture template as a base for custom skins, which is based on the old model. The old model had wrong lines on the wings and probably more.
  21. It is probably due to country "limit" in each skin description file. When you delete that line in description, the skin will be aviable for any country in menu. Or write there any country you need. E.g. this skin is available only for UK.
  22. This decision was not made because of Corsairs ability to replace SB2C and TBF/TBM. It was result of "Special Attack" appearance and the need for more fighters to deal with it. Both the F6Fs and the F4Us served until war end as a fighter/bomber on carriers.
  23. You will find V100 as a "Ignition (toggle)" - I "Ignition ON" - LShift + I "Ignition OFF" - LCtrl + I
