Thx IvanK for providing such a valuable source.

I understand there that CoD devs has alrdy really worked the point.

Considering that if the 0.2g was the design limit to sustain for the CutOut on the converted engine, the CutOut began much earlier on standard Merlin's (although obviously bellow 1G).

Doing a quick calculation (to be refined) I have a 0.017G as the min value for the cutout to begin in a non-modified eng with an assumed similar geometry (you need then to add the time that the 2nd carb chamber emptied it self of its remaining fuel - Vip as done that before - negligeable).

So am fully converting myself to Crumpp idea now. As a culprit of false assumption I condemn myself to run around my neighborhood both arms raised like wings and making loudly sputtering "WAAAA waaaaaaaa WWWAAAAAAA" engine noise.
