razo+r Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 I spawn with 83% fuel, i have friendly ground units occupied my airfield, and tried it with both running and stopped engine, but when i ask the ground crew for refueling, they won't do it, even with cockpit open they just say: request refuelling copy request rearming unable to comply is there something i missed?

IzoAzlion Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 83% appears to be full fuel without, presumably, the rear fuel tank or something, because its not got any armament atm apart from cannons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sokol1_br Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Ground crew answer for repair request, but to nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zerO_crash Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Ground crew answer for repair request, but to nothing. If they don`t repair you, then you are within "maintained" limit, nothing to worry about. Unless you know 100% you broke something, in which case it`s a bug.

NeilWillis Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 The extra fuel capacity is only used in the clipped wing variant I seem to recall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I set the propeller pitch for maximum angle - almost feathered* - and try taxi, this damage something (gearbox overheat?): Call the guys for repair, their answer "Copy" and nothing more happens. * Strange that propeller generates airflow sufficient to move the plane with this adjust.

zerO_crash Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 (edited) I set the propeller pitch for maximum angle - almost feathered* - and try taxi, this damage something (gearbox overheat?): Call the guys for repair, their answer "Copy" and nothing more happens. * Strange that propeller generates airflow sufficient to move the plane with this adjust. I`m no Spitfire expert, but that doesn`t look too good. Certainly something overheated. Did you maybe taxi with much throttle? Above 1500 rpm? (Maximum blade angle is all good, that`s what tutorial + manual recommend too, for startup. Just be careful to heat up the engine to optimal first, and use as little throttle as possible when on the ground. Too little air passes through radiator to cool it well). Also, if they gave you no repair on this, then a bug it seems. Nice find in this case ;) Edited December 17, 2016 by zerO_crash [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a possibility that you are taxiing with the brakes on? They need to be reversed in the settings. Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galm99 Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 I'm having the same issue, aircraft is off in a parking spot however the ground crew will not read or refuel my aircraft.

razo+r Posted December 17, 2016 Author Share Posted December 17, 2016 Thanks Bignewy for the 83%, i got it now, but a bit weird, in the ME weapons loadout, it says 100%, but ingame it says83%... For the other one, i'll try to make a video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razo+r Posted December 17, 2016 Author Share Posted December 17, 2016 Ok, i can refuel, but those 100%=83% is kinda confusing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bart Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 guys can you post tracks showing no refuel. I am getting refuelled with no issue, using a friendly field, I had an issue this morning where I refuelled ok but on starting the engine I couldn't get the low fuel pressure light to extinguish. I was using both the fuel primer pump and the wobble pump, couldn't get the light out, and the engine obviously failed to start. Thought Id mention it here first to see if this is something that has been reported before or me missing something in the re-start checklist. 1 System :- i7-12700K 3.6 GHz 12 core, ASUS ROG Strix Z690-A Gaming, 64GB Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 3200MHz, 24GB Asus ROG Strix Geforce RTX 3090, 1x 500GB Samsung 980 PRO M.2, 1x 2TB Samsung 980 PRO M.2, Corsair 1000W RMx Series Modular 80 Plus Gold PSU, Windows 10.
