Hi Buzzsaw,

I wasn't intending to say 'look folks, everything is wonderful!' by posting this vid, just intending to show all of the people currently having overheating and energy retention problems in the current patch that there is a 'workaround' in order to play the game as it currently stands, with a better chance of matching the 109s with these settings as a basic guide.

The 50% rad setting works for all the RAF a/c currently modelled in the game.

I think by now, most people know that there are errors in all the FMs, both RAF and LW/RA. There are many threads to this effect in the FM/DM section.

This thread was intended to be about getting the best out of the game currently, but thanks for posting the data.

And no criticism intended of your good work. The issue is the game, not attempts by experienced players to get the best out of a given aircraft.

Much appreciated; at least for now this is a reasonable work around and my computer room no longer smells of fried Merlin and Spitfire/Hurricane chips. BTW are you that Brylcreem guy?

I wish I had enough hair to use the stuff on mate.

ATAG Dutch- thanks heaps for this post! This is a huge difference, it is amazing how much faster the plane is when it's flown like that with the lower radiator settings. I can actually cruise around at 300mph all day now. I used to just have it on full because the engines just kept blowing. Now by controlling the pitch and mixture it just goes at 300mph no sweat... What's amazing is that I think I can now keep the 109's away, or even chase one!!!

That's the ticket old boy! Got to keep the jolly old Hun at bay, what?!

Seriously, it's good to know it's helped. Thanks for posting.

Your efforts are helping people with improving their piloting, and so I thank you too...this really was not the best thread for me to target, for criticizing the number junkies.
