IAR 80 - Key/s for Opening/Closing Cowl/Radiator Flaps?

[Mungee]

I think that I must be getting old!!

 

For the life of me I cannot find any keys that successfully open/close the IAR 80's cowl/radiator flaps - the obvious ones don't appear to work!

 

I'd be grateful to receive some guidance on this.

 

Thanks in anticipation.

I don't have it yet, but it may be the same as the hs-129 having similar french engines.  Check the spec tab when you open the map.

 

"The oil radiator shutters are controlled automatically and don't have a manual mode."

The cowl flap is manual i think it has the same button as the la5 and p47.

Correct, I have it mapped to the same control as the P-47 Cowl Shutters
