Couple CEM questions on the Yak

[dburne]

Hey gang,

 

I seem to be settling in on the Yak as my main ride - the radial on the La-5 is cool, but for performance and overall ability I seem to be preferring the Yak.

 

Just curious about the water and oil rads on the Yak, how others manage them?

 

I assume the more I can close them, the better speed I get - but need to keep an eye on temps correct? Are the temp effects modeled yet for the Yak? Just flew a quick mission , closed the water rad down to about 70%, and the oil rad probably most of the way closed, did not get any overheating warnings. I ran the engine at about 2400 rpm.

 

Just curious how others are flying the Yak and how they manage their cem...

I don't think proper thermal management is enabled on the yak or the LaGG yet...I can run them at full bore for entire MP rounds.

Ok thanks for the info !
