  1. Decided to compare all 3 planes on a climb with low airspeed max power wep. For all 3 i started on the deck pitched up into climb, airspeed drops to which i try and hold it to a certain airspeed as best i can. For 109 i was climbing from deck at 1.8 wep, roughly around 150-170kph never overheated got to 7K got bored. Rads on auto. Then i took the dora out from deck same rough IAS as 109 1.8 wep with radiator fully open. Got to 6K showing no signs it was going to overheat so stopped. Took out the mustang climbing from deck at roughly 100 - 110 mph IAS. 67" with wep rads auto. Gets hot pretty quick made it to 4K engine popped due to over heat. Now to comparison between german and american engine cooling is huge. Is MW50 really just a magic pill?
  2. I will post the video. The coolant according to the manual is over limit at the altitudes I was. The whole time my nose is pitched up sitting there at 150kph. Do you not think it's odd a plane generating 2000hp rads at auto can keep a plane cool for 8 mins at a constant 150kph?
  3. My main issue is not overheating after a long period of time at such a low speed. On max power. I also as a side note think its impressive i can hold the nose pitched at such a low airspeed for a long time also
  4. Hi I fly all 3 modules no alliegence here. Fly latest 1.5 version and noticed 109 has gotten very good. Made a video which i can upload where on wep nose pitched incredibly slow airspeed engine will not overheat. I was recording for at least 6-7 minutes. I finally broke the engine by running 1.8 ATA without wep. Conditions I was able to pitch up roughly 25/30 degrees at 1.8ATA ON WEP. once my airspeed bled off i got stick and rudder in correct position to hold this nose pitched position at roughly 150kph IAS. I was able to still climb although extremely small amounts and my plane felt like it would pivot slowly around to the right as if i was a helicopter applying some tail rotor. Coolant did move the needle up then kind of went steady. I held this position for 7-8 minutes with no overheating That would lead to a failed engine. I would have assumed i was lacking some serious airflow to cool the engine. I was under 5K and towards the end of video got just over 5K.
  5. Would like to Reg for Blue side Callsign: Coopes Aircraft: A10C
