G-14, K-4 wrong climb rate?

[Roland_HUNter]

Hello!

I noticed it yesterday: G-6 is 166 kg lighter than G-14, and 261 kg lighter than K-4.
But: G-14 engine is 1800(DB605AM) HP, K-4 1850(605DB) and 2000(605DC) HP, G-6 "only" 1480 HP(DB605A).

With this small weight difference, is this real the G-14 and K-4 can climb worse than G-6? Is this not an "error"?
PS:K-4 0.4 m/s better than G-6 at low alt. ((with 605DB engine, but with 605DC, the G-6 win on low alt as well)) But above than 3k alt G-6 wins.

G6:

 

G-14:

 

K-4:

You can see a bit below the note that those climb rates are for combat power, so for both the G-6 and G-14 it's at 1310 HP and for the K-4 it's at 1430 HP

That is what happens when we dont have complete grafics about climrates tas etc... to compare planes at different altitudes.

I was requesting this for a long time but I guess is not as needed for the game as to change the icons on the map as  last path. Everyone was very confused with the previous icons. Irony off.

Maybe some day we will get this chards instead of going every description where planes are nor comparable with altitudes and powe settings.

I hope so as well ! :)))

It would be a neat idea to have charts ingame that animate and react to your control inputs. So open the graph for a single plane, toy with your throttle/RPM/mixture/turbo and watch the graph shift around.

Also those spec lists are as reliable as a Jagdtiger.  They list F4 climbrate at 19ms which is like, not even close.

Which actually is correct, but again those 19 m/s are for combat power and not emergency power.

Nope. At 1.3 ATA you will easily surpass 19m/s between 0-3000m.
