fapador Posted November 30, 2021 Author Share Posted November 30, 2021 @Yo-Yo What does this post exactly says about -3 -4 trim? Can you explain? It also doesn't explain the unrealistic high tail lift off speeds. It also doesnt answer my question if the prop has been modelled with 138kg mass inertia.

fapador Posted November 30, 2021 Author Share Posted November 30, 2021 (edited) @NineLine I am sorry but now you label my post as correct as is while its not. The g-12 video shows this. I am finding it very hard to believe you, as you just answer with a vague yes answer just to resolve the matter. Well it ain't gonna pass. There is a discrepancy but you just dont want to admit it. You remind me the Huey left pedal issue I have raised a couple months ago. It has been admitted even by you @Yo-Yo but nothing has still changed or improved..... Couple of months ago I build my own bf109 k-4 FM in X-planes plane maker from all the data I have collected over the years (correct control sizes throws airfoils Cg etc. as close to the real thing as possible) . I was not surprised it displayed different characteristics from dcs, that in my opinion resembled the real aircraft better. Such a trait is the left pedal need in high speeds which dcs completely lacks... Its sad... no respect is given in the community inputs... Its fine if you dont want to change cg but you should still give an option to the user to adjust it in his personal taste as others sims have...

Art-J Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 @fapador Just for the sidenote record, all warbirds in DCS seem to raise their tails on takeoff very late. Not that it bothers me at all, but keep it in mind - it's more of a general feature of FM in DCS, not strictly a 109-thing. i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.

Why would the tail lifting characteristics of an aircraft with a different thrust line, different wing profile, different control surface area, different CoG position and different weight distribution have any bearing on those for the 109?

fapador Posted November 30, 2021 Author Share Posted November 30, 2021 (edited) @DD_FenrirWell its quite similar despite common belief. They have comparable engines and layout. A tandem is also even more tail heavy it should be even worse... see the g-12 video I provided. A 40kmh difference is a big discrepancy Sure the elliptical wing of the spitfire is more efficient and provides more lift but the spit doesnt takeoff with flaps deployed..

DD_Fenrir Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Question was rhetorical. Besides which the developers have answered. They believe their calculations are accurate and account for all the prototypical masses and their distribution. It would be at this point wise to consign this thread to posterity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ala13_ManOWar Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 For the record, wooden tail is a long time overruled myth due to a misunderstanding. Fuel tank is beneath the pilot, you seat on top of it, as always was in all 109 variants, it's not K4 special feature. So, your "facts" for this claim seem a bit off at the very least. On the other hand, I've tested landings with low fuel, the usual at the end of a mission, and CoG isn't that off at all, it's just if you go landing with a still too much filled fuel tank CoG hadn't time to change yet. Warbirds on the contrary usually fly with minimum fuel, those aren't representative of anything at all unless under the very same conditions.

ED Team NineLine Posted December 1, 2021 ED Team Share Posted December 1, 2021 I realize now how rusty I am in the 109, at least in on take offs, but I think even without labeling them, you can guess which one was set more like a civilian load out and which was a military one. Again, excuse the poor take offs, but I think you get the point, and its easy to test yourself.

Is it not clear why it rises tail easier? Its an empty airframe but a tandem layout which means more rearheavy. It should respond close to an armed k-4*, as far as tail rise with speed is concerned . At least not have a 40kmh discrepancy. That surely is not ballpark... @Bagpipe I speak of experience not from likeness or to express my support to ED... They already have my money no need to further countenance @NineLine The videos tell me nothing. Apart a 3 point attitude takeoff in the first one... No speed information to compare no weight or other configuration data *Even an armed K-4 without regarding fuel load will rise tail without a large declination as most of the load is further forward than 27%MAC @Yo-Yo With all respect don't rush in conclusions Edited December 1, 2021 by fapador Obsessed with FM's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will not agree here, even it is 2 seater additional seat and gauges and controls will not be heavier then MW50 tank and accessories, on top of it radio equipment which was very heavy back in ww2 as well as retractable tail wheel instalaton which sits at very end of the tail oh forgot about armor plating as well By my feeling this G-12 is less tail heavy by far then combat K-4 Edited December 1, 2021 by grafspee System specs: I7 14700KF, Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Elite, 64GB DDR4 3600MHz, Gigabyte RTX 4090,Win 11, 48" OLED LG TV + 42" LG LED monitor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fapador Posted December 1, 2021 Author Share Posted December 1, 2021 (edited) @grafspee Read below I say without regarding fuel load. 40kmh discrepancy is not within ballpark. I would expect an absolute max of 10kmh. Also the tailheavyness is countered by the armament. K-4 is not more tailheavy as you say but Heavier overall. When compared to that g-12 at least not to a significant margin Edited December 1, 2021 by fapador Obsessed with FM's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grafspee Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Cannon and mgs are mounted behind engine they counter tail heaviness no as much. Your conclusion that by removing mw50 tank and radio equipment and armour plates and putting in that place empty space for 2nd pilot supposed to make plane more tail heavy? That is just weird.

Mgs weight with ammo are 212 kg Cannon is 98kg and not 90kg as @razo+r said. MW50 tank is 85 litres that is less than 85 kg but lets say 85kg say an other 10kg in radios and another 10kg in armor.

But check where cannon sits, it is almost at CG of the plane same with mgs most mass is cramped in bolting mechanism with ammo, mw50 tank and radio and armor plate is far from cg it affect it a lot more despite heaving less mass. It will make plane heavier but it don't affect CG as much as stuff mounted in tail.
