yak1 s69

[Felix58]

After a long break from the game I decided to pick up Blazing Steppe in the recent sale.  So it was back to flying the Yak1 s69.

Using Expert setting.

Consulting the various guides for engine guidance reveals normal operation at 2000m to be 1850 rpm at manifold pressure of 850.

I can achieve one or the other via throttle/prop pitch but not both as recommended.

Tried RSH+p in case I needed to set manual prop pitch - not applicable.

Supercharger at level 1 should be correct for this altitude.

Water radiator is manual but oil seems to adjust automatically (?, thought oil was manual as well).

 

Are the numbers I quoted correct or is there something else I need to adjust?

Or is there a game setting I need to check?

 

Thx

Sounds like your game is in Normal Mode.  In this mode engine management is simplified and you won't get manual proppitch control.

 

To check this; go into Quick Mission and by the green START bar is another tab for realism.  Go into that and select custom and you can change your settings.

Thanks for having a punt, but definitely on Expert.  Strange that water rad is manual but oil is auto?!

Definitely shouldn't be the case unless you are hitting buttons on accident.

Finally figured it out!

Although only at 2000m you need to go to Supercharger 2 (LSH+s) to get the manifold pressure correct.
