WildBillKelsoe Posted January 27, 2019 Posted January 27, 2019 I noticed there are six internal tanks or maybe 4 which holds fuel. Is there a way to manipulate where the fuel feed comes from? Like P-51 aft tank or L/R wing tanks fuel source selector? Even the cheat sheet codes thingy? Could this in anyway be related to the extreme pitch up moment when flaps are being deployed at the 800-600 ft break turn phase? AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.
AKarhu Posted January 27, 2019 Posted January 27, 2019 (edited) I noticed there are six internal tanks or maybe 4 which holds fuel. Is there a way to manipulate where the fuel feed comes from?

Could this in anyway be related to the extreme pitch up moment when flaps are being deployed at the 800-600 ft break turn phase? No. Left and right engines feed from tanks 2 & 3 respectively. Tanks 1 and 4 transfer into 2 and 3 respectively. Center of gravity is automatically maintained by scheduling the tank 1 transfer on and off as a function of tank 4 level.

Theodore42 Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 You can control your external tanks though, To the right of the fuel probe switch is the "EXT TANKS" switches. "STOP" means there is no fuel transfer from them and "ORIDE" means fuel always transfers from them first, even while refueling.
WildBillKelsoe Posted January 31, 2019 Author Posted January 31, 2019 But you can't fill them up with fuel taken during AAR, right?

noisy_lightning Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 But you can't fill them up with fuel taken during AAR, right? You can, I did some AAR last night and it filled the centre line tank I had, though it did it last after filling the main tanks.
Deano87 Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 But you can't fill them up with fuel taken during AAR, right? Yes. Droptanks fill during AAR, you just cant USE fuel from the droptank while tanking. Opening the AAR probe stops droptank pressurisation.

Banzaiib Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 Can you drain the wing tanks before the centerline tank? Or do you drain them all evenly?
