Airspeed performance graphs - anyone made the effort?


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Was wondering if someone made the effort to create graphs to compare airspeeds of all fighters in game. Would be awesome to know if running in a certain height is an option at all.

 

Thanks

Maximum speed, current QMB conditions.

Thanks for this. What happens with the 190 above 2000 meter?

Kommandogerät switches to gear 2 at 2300 meters, which is too early. Already reported it as a bug, so i guess it won't stay that way. The Fw 190 graph is not 100% accurate, the performance is actually still a bit worse between 2500 and 3000 meters. But then the effect is the same, try to stay below 2000 meters or above 4500 mters in the Fw 190.

There is still some work to do on the 190, let's wait for that.

Wow, very nice work.

Thanks all and thanks Matt. What are the testing conditions and power settings?

Boost for LA5 activated? Manifoldpressure for the german planes?

QMB, no wind, clear sky, 12:00.

 

It's maximum speed, so maximum manifold pressure and RPM and fully closed radiators.

Thanks. Most interesting would be the "Kampfleistung" for german planes since "Notleistung" kills the engine so extremely quick that its practically unusable.

Kampfleistung in the F-4 gives basically the same performance as the G-2.

 

With Kampfleistung in the Fw 190 you'll wind up between the Yak-1 and LaGG-3 speed in the graph at low altitude. Between 2500 and 4500 meters, the LaGG-3 will be faster. But on the Fw 190 you can use Notleistung for 6-7 minutes.

 

I don't plan to update the graph anyway, until FMs change or we get the possibility to adjust the ambient temperature/pressure.

I am no historican but it seems the 190 performance is way off and much too small.

I know its climbrate should be shitty - and it is. but the levelflight should be even faster than F4 and G2. Well, i guess well see what changes until final release of the game. After all its all still early access.

if someone here interested in......

 

"G2 1.3 ata

 

500m

 

545

 

PS: относительно "фактора хвостового колеса" - имеем косяк, т.е. на ~12кмч G2 должен быть быстрее, по возможности поправим."

 

"G2 будет быстрее аж на ~12 кмч (яж написал выше)."

in total, sense will be clear, but if you want - ViKs said that now bf 109 g-2 slower at ~12 kph at sl, and devs will try to fix this bug.

Good news on those forums. Anything about the Fw 190 there?

yep...and what's funny, when in game was added g-2, personally i got ~565 kph at sl (like in your charts, for example), but further and now only ~545 without visible reasons.

 

nothing about fw 190, this question even not discussed on russian forum, if i remember right.

That's kind of scarey, actually.
