draken152

Question is what has chanege the ED opionion because on first screenshot was old style of indicator???

I am wondering about gear and flaps indicator. I think ED has used as source fw 190 ersatzteilliste where is draft of left console with this type of indicator (I feel little bit guilty because I have provide this to them), but this item is only on draft not on parts list(I don't know why). On all existing photos of dora cockpit what I know is each time old style of indicator as on FW 190A-8. Is there any another evidence of this, as I know currently used style of indicator was standard for TA 152. The question is what was common on Dora, because you cannot switch one type of indicator to another without changing the shape of assembly hole. http://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=99590&d=1402394645

Was Erich’s FW 190D equipped with EZ 42 or Revi 16B. I am curious if he have any combat experience with EZ42???

In manual is only one sentence about this, germen word is Hilfsvisier Help/backup sight. EZ 42 manual site 13: ,,After successful optic adjustment, adjust Iron sight to sighting triangle." It is part of manual describing how to adjust gunsight vertically and horizontally. Sighting triangle is mark on pattern used for adjusting gunsightsight and guns. Example of BF 109G-5/6 pattern.

Unfortunately no:doh:. why???

Sorry I didn't recognize you are writing about DCS not how it work in reality:cry:... It is not separate switch in DCS, it is switch for instrumental lights, compass .... I have marked in another EZ 42 schematic general switch and gyroscopes switch, from this is also clear the bulb/light is connected only to general switch. I don't have any evidence if the general switch was in FW190D as it is made in DCS....

Sorry in this case I am not sure what you mean, you need only to turn of switch on gunsight and than you have fixed reticle mode, it has nothing with distance. All distance and wingspan adjustment after that are only due the facts you need 10% reticle (like on REVI 16B). If I misunderstand your remark sorry:music_whistling:.... Switch on right panel is already included.

Hi all, First ED thank you for great FW 190D. I have only few remarks to EZ 42 functionality. 1. Gunsight power switch (on right side of gungsiht) it function was to switch on/off both gyroscopes not the whole gunsight like is it now in DCS Dora. That means in reality it was switch for gyro and fixed mode. This is mentioned in EZ 42 manual site 14 point 10: If it is needed Gunsight can be used also as fixed reticle gunsight. By switching down the switch you will turn of gyroscopes guiding and mirror is turned back to zero (basic position). Obey this: To keep up 10% gunsight reticle is needed to adjust wingspan on target wingspan knob to 11,5m or 16,5m or 31,8m and distance on range distance indicator to 115m or 165m or 318m (colour made Company marks on range distance indicator). See original electric schema in attachment, switch is number 33 ) 2. Both gyroscopes need approximately 1,5 min to get right lead calculation. So they must be switch on in advance before fight. This is mentioned in EZ42 manual site 13: Keep in mind the gyroscopes need aproximetly 1,5 min to set right lead calculation. Beacause of that do not switch on just before fight. I think this should be programed to DCS Dora and mentioned in Dora manual. 3. EZ 42 Gunsight Adjustment Unit is currently not working. Is planned to program it??? I think at least the gunsight altitude adjustment is planned, how it is working can be derived from attached schematic (number 41). 4. And one minor graphic remark, EZ 42 Gunsight Adjustment Unit is missing cable on right side. See attached picture. Sorry If the translation from manual aren’t 100% correct I am not native speaker neither English or German.

Too optimistic http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2137875#post2137875

Perfect work. One question. I have possibility to get scn5 or scn6 linear actuator almost for free :music_whistling:. With them as I understand, I can connect directly to PC via USB (with necessary converters) and use X-Sim software. Is this right???

and one more picture....

This is description and picture from FW-190A8 manual.

Have you already consider this??? It was maybe litlle bit lost in midlle of MW50 batlle :thumbup: In meanwhile I think as EZ42 self-destruction was propably used same button like for FUG25, what make sence (but still guessing)...But this is not important towards cockpit functionality....

I am missing in manual some info about the EZ42 Gunsight Adjustment Unit on right console . According to EZ42 manual(page 13) is used to adjust gunsight ballistic for proper combat altitude(values are in table on adjustment unit). Also is missing info (and maybe also programing) you need to switch on gunsight at least 1,5min before combat to ensure right function of both gyroscopes (they need time to be in proper position according to EZ 42 manual page 13). Also is missing EZ42 self-destruction button/detonator (EZ 42 manual page 11), I don't know if there is evidence of its position in FW 190 cockpit. See picture position 55, sorry if translation is not OK I am not native speaker neither German or English…. Still no answer of source for handle on left console pos.1 (MW-50 to Fuel Handle of water-methanol tank) and switch pos.9 (Radio self-destruction button)???

I think this can also prove the right configuration of consoles/panels.... FW 190D Ersatzteilliste....

I was also suprised by this. . Here are some pictures, I will check when I will be at home also fw 190D Ersatzteilliste if there is something useful. Question for me is also handle on left console pos.1 (MW-50 to Fuel Handle of water-methanol tank) and switch pos.9 (Radio self-destruction button) I never seen it before. What is the source for this????

I hope they will continue with fw 190D family so D11 and D13(maybe D10 and D12), I think easier work for them due te existing D9. And then I hope Ta 152H will come:pilotfly:...

Hi , I have two remarks to current FW 190D cockpit, I know it isn’t finished yet but… 1. In current cockpit is used EZ 42 gunsight, also the gas lever is changed to standard for this gunsight. But what I am missing is box for adjustment of gunsight ballistics to flight level (air pressure influence). I think it is no clear where was assembled in cockpit (at least not from documents what I have), but it must be assembled in pilot field of vision and easy accessible so my best guess is right console near pilot seat. 2. There is no switch for mw 50 in cockpit. Does it means we will have FW 190D without MW50??? I think at least that will be strange (but no unrealistic) configuration, EZ42 but not MW50. My personal opinion is split FW 190D to early and late variant or let us possibility to change configuration MW50/ without MW50 and Revi 16B/EZ 42, but this is only my opinion…
