DSR_T-800

You think you want 150 octane, like I did at one point, but then you'll end up in a shit hole. What we have now isn't perfect, but its only going to get worse if everyone's motivate is making sure their favourite plane has a competitive edge. No one would be arguing for 150 octane if it weren't for the K4 or D9. And believe me, K4 pilots are ready to press that C3 moaning button once the "Allies" get their 150 octane. Go down this path and the next thing you know you're taking the P-38J out for a spin and you're surrounded by +12lbs Tempest Vs flying against C3 Bf-109K4s.

I hope we never lose NineLine for whatever reason.

Lolol I think the lack of MW50 explains your problem.

Did you try to out dive a P-47?

Could you tell us your method for your boom-zoom swing benchmark. Thanks.

Literally no one has compared the DCS P-47 and DCS P-51 yet. Good to see everyone just shat out their 2 cents leaving zero value in actually comparing the two aircraft in DCS. :)

Lol. That's him working his butt off to keep the P-47 in a straight line :P.

Good shooting.

Awesome find, Pikey.

Yeah, worst case scenario lets say the plane was this unstable with the dorsal fin. How in the hell did Gabby, flying the P-47D-25, even shoot anything down that wasn't in level flight? :megalol: Then again, the P-47N had an even larger dorsal fin. I'm excited to see this fixed, but I'm worried there is nothing to fix, lol.

I don't the budget of your stick is the problem :P. The plane is incredible trim heavy, I don't ever recall reading about this. Btw, the top speed with and w/o pylons is the same. Water injection doesn't seem to be modeled, I can't get 64"Hg on the deck nor is there any water pressure.

Yeah, which is great. However, I'm actually struggling to master this beast right now. I find it very difficult to fly.

Holy Sh*t, that is one high quality video.

I'd like to see these figures. The P-51 with and W/O the pylons has a 15mph speed difference at altitude. I can't imagine, given the enormous size of the P-47 pylons, that they wouldn't provide a significant performance boost with their removal. Hey, if you don't get the old gunsight at least you can turn off the gyro aspect. Yeah that is fair, I do think the dorsal fin looks great and I'd lose performance just to look cool, lol.

I'm not sure why you wouldn't want a K-14 gunsight. Hopefully our P-47 comes with the Hamilton propeller and without wing pylons like also proposed in earlier screen shots.

Phil Style easily has the best review of this aircraft up to date. He did mention in the video he may compare the performance to other aircraft in a later video. I'd really like to see this, especially up at 25,000ft.

:/ gimmie jug

I find myself unable to fly the Dora without eventually destroying the engine, despite being extremely conservative. Even the slightest touch of MW-50 destroys my engine within 2-3 minutes despite decent cool. I've even found myself destroying my engine in level flight with good cooling. I've only truly been shot down once but I've destroyed my engine countless times and each of those times I've tried to be more conservative on my engine management than the other. From my knowledge MW-50 provides cooling so I should in theory be better off flying with it than without it. Also on top of that I've got 40 minutes worth of MW-50 and I'm permitted to use MW-50 in 10 minutes intervals. So this engine is supposedly capable of handling 40 minutes worth of maximum power per sortie and I'm sure it was capable of doing this for multiple sorties, not just one. However this is not the case for me at least. Also, yes I warm up my engine before take off. Someone please enlighten me, because I am royally confused.

If we are getting a Fw-190A8 does that mean we are getting a Bf-109G-14?

Hah, just saw this on the facebook page.

D-22's top speed was with wing racks. So add 15mph at all ALT.

Slow down there, lol. The fact that we even have a P-47 is a blessing.

Imagines aren't anything new though. They are just rendered in the game engine. These exact photos were released years ago. At least its a sign the P-47 is actually coming. :)

How is it possible to complete the P-47 if all of the documents have been disposed of? What are the means to complete the P-47? How is time an answer if from what we know there is nothing to work with? The only solution I can think of is to put a real P-47 in a wind tunnel, but when will this happen and is that even the plan? What exactly does time mean? I'm not angry I'm just confused. Anyways, a P-38L would be nice. More realistically a Bf-109G and Fw-190A would be great.
