71/2 Minutes at +11 Boost, Spit Ia100oct

Thanks, Dutch. It's great info. Many thanks to all the CloD 'test pilots' who've done the homework and shared their results.

Part of the problem in figuring these aircraft out is that it seems that the basics change with every new patch. I'm not sure how many months it's been or how many patches it's been since a well documented readme.txt about changes made, but it's clear that the Spitfires and Hurricanes we're flying with this current beta version are far removed from the ones we had in the most recent retail patch, and far removed again from the release version. I can't comment about the 109s since I don't really fly them and thus wouldn't know how much has changed over the game's history.

We'll have to probably do all this testing over again with the next patch.

Pleasure mate. And, I don't doubt the second point for a minute.

I don't understand this fixation with numbers. I fly red many times and can fully enjoy the aircraft without any real problems or disappointment. Developing skill and tactics is far more important IMHO

We also develop our skill and hone our tactics, both online and offline, in addition to studying how to extract maximum performance from our machines to great synergetic effect. We do it all and enjoy it very much. We share our findings in the 1C community and hope it benefits others and adds to THEIR enjoyment, and perhaps generate discussion and add to everyone's overall learning.

If you have no problems with the current RAF fighter flight models then this thread is of no use to you whatsoever, IMHO.

Thank you Snapper for sharing! Did anyone try the same in a 100 octane Hurricane yet ?

My Safe settings in Spit 1a 100 oct are;

Full Throttle/+11 Boost
Radiator 55%
Prop pitch 60%
Mixture 50%

Keep eye on Temps. If goes over 115 Deg Cel on water, drop throttle from 110% to 100% until returns to 110deg cel or lower.

Thx Again Dutch, really enjoyed testing tonight.

A couple of 109's were bricking it tonight watching me follow them in a climb n dive and hammer them before they ran off.

Long live the 1a 100 oct FM for NOW.

You're very welcome, Reaper. Pay no attention to Dutch. He simply does the hard work, the hypothesizing and testing, a few tedious reports and absolutely mind-numbing videos. I am here to collect the glory for Dutch's work well done.
