I disagree...his whole presentation is based on hearsay and faded memories at best. Why do you think that the team would include oscillation of the needle?...were not many of them pilots giving advice? is it possible the team then took that too far.:grin:

BS! ......j/k -- Figured we could use a good Friday/no update chuckle! ;)

Personally, I don't know. Sounds like the mech tach's needle vibrated but wasn't rock steady like the elect tach modelled in CoD at present. But were these the same guys who reversed the mixture lever in the Spit, failed to animate the Spit's two trim controls, or placed a diesel truck engine in place of a Merlin in the engine compartment? (Just listen to a Spitfire fly by -- that ain't no Merlin going by!)

Ha ha B/S...revolvers at 50 paces then...they read engine vibration with reeds that vibrated, that has to have problems:-P

The pilots and engineers consulted are flying and maintaining these aircraft today. As I indicated in my previous post "WRT to Tacho bounce IRL 3 current Spitfire pilots were spoken to and 2 engineers responsible for these aircraft were spoken too." Two of the aircraft are flying in Australia and the third in New Zealand.

So the info is hardly hearsay or faded memories ...

Well, as long as your happy with it now what can I say...I'm out:grin:

What's any of this got to do with the OP's post.

Take your bouncing needles into another thread ........................

:cool:

The comments were on the OP's video post...would you agree that you have a narrow view of the lane width for comments and discussion? :)

You fellaz completely derailed / hijacked the OP's thread - show me just one word in the thread title or Raaaid's post which is needle-related in any way. Sure, the secondary discussion might have originated from his video, but still, right here it is what it is - an off-topic bulls..t (which would be actually quite a good topic in "Vehicle and Terrain threads" section, where people go to read exactly about this kind od stuff).

And when the last sane person points this out, You whine about "narrow view of the lane width for comments". Dude, seriously?

By definition, a Raaid's thread can't be hijacked/derailed after a few days. I think a better term would be an orphan thread owned again. (by Snapper in this case) :grin:

Never again. Apologies to Raaid. Let's get it back to supresion of binaural sound.
