Complex engine management ?


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I'm curious as to what the new complex engine update will entail. Can someone with more insight than me elaborate?

 

Cheers,

You need to hand-crank the inertia starter yourself. :D

You just know that would have been oh so much fun on a nice cold Russian winters day.    I suspect a lot of German pilot casualties might actually have been pissed off ground crew who couldn't understand why the highly trained monkey in the cockpit was still having problems after several attempts

 

Pilot - " Sorry lads, I'm super sure it will start this time......... honest"

 

Chief mechanic - " Where's my bloody gun *$$$$*****$****$$$$"

Saitek and Thrustmaster are already coming up with the USB version of the hand-crank.

 

It will be easily synchonized with the rest of your devices and current profiles. :biggrin:

Beat them to it.  I've got a very nice, old fashioned, pencil sharpner, just like teacher used to use, thankyou very much.

Maybe it's related to some of the, currently automatic, German stuff?

Radiator control for the 109's is a given I think. Hopefully they'll also do something about the silly engine self destruct timers on German planes. They seem very place holder-ish. Hopefully I'm right on that.

Haha! Yes, "OK, last attempt; I'm sure it'll work this time!" 

By the looks of it, those hand cranks are damn hard work too.

You think they'll add the starter whine back to the 109 before release?
