LOL guys, you do realise it says clearly on the graph that it should not be used for anything else than a comparison between the engines due to a non standard radiator ?

Also the speeds increase in the direction of the arrow.
Where it says geschwindigkeit.->

Man I wish I could read german better!

Thanks for that info Hatch! By the way, does it say anything else? As in was this some sort of test radiator? As in an atempt to improve on the drag of the standard radiators?

No not really,

It was probably an informal test as it also states that they were using plain data.
It says "nicht umgerechnete messwerte" .
Which tranlated would be something like the "data was not thoroughly calculated".

They refer to another paper? with reference number VB 10918 L42
They also caution because of the non standard height at which the test was conducted.


Ah I saw Flanker35M's post too late

ACE you will not give up??? it is starting to be a bit annoying

first you talked about resolution, now about real life, the car thing was just an irony mate
a 50km/h or even a 10km/h gap will be readable in the gauge in now days resolution standars

Agreed.. 50 is much easier to 'see' than the 10 I was talking about at the time I thought we were talking about a +/-10

But now ask yourself..

Why is David and a few 'others' not able to 'see' a change in speed due to radiator settings, where as guys like Tom and SYN_Repent are able to 'see' a change in speed due to radiators settings?

Which group are we to belive?

I say belive, but I really should say which group are we going to have 'faith' in?

Because nothing has been provided by either group to support thier claims one way or another

Which brings us full circle

Where from the get go I have ask people to provide some proof, in the form of a track file for review, and better yet, to log the data (altitude, speed, etc) to a log file while flying

Than we would NOT have to base it on 'faith' or some sort of sick cheerleader prom night popularity contest

Is that too much to ask before someone accuses 1C of having a FM with a bug in it?

I think not

Oh one thing I forgot to mention..

Before this 50kph value becomes some sort of fact I think it is important to point out that the data is from a 109G and we are talking about the in game 109E! And I am pretty sure the radiators changes a lot between the E and G model.

And don't forget what Hatch pointed out! That the data is from a non standard radiator test!

What does that means?

Well maybe it means a standard radiator only causes a 25kph (or less) difference, or maybe it means a standard radiator will cause a 75kph (or more) difference. We don't know.

But I think we can all agree that radiators will have 'some' affect on speed, how much we really don't know.

We can agree to disagree as to if someone can 'see' a speed difference of 50kph or less!

But here is what we know to be true

Some people do 'see' a speed difference and others do NOT 'see' a speed difference

How do we decide who is right?

I know how and it does not require a burger king campaign on picking between a werewolf or vampire!

That's so funny ! Really made me laugh.
So how can we make a graph of the game? I'll do it.
