That amount of flame from the stacks at start up points to one thing, and one thing only, the engine was grossly over primed before start up.

I have seen dozens upon dozens of Merlins, Allisons, Wasps, Cyclones, and a DB 601 start, all in day time, and never once have seen that much flame come out of the stacks. Smoke certainly, and lots of it on some engines, but never large curling flames like that. Operator error, pure and simple.

Not bad, but the flames are still too "yellowish" like in IL-2.

Its sad to hear some one say there is a DB601/5 engine sound in il2 :lol:

You've got to know that those sounds are no way the final sounds LOL

Here's a nice night vid with blue flames. Don't know the details of mixture setting, but for such a high RPM run-up we might suppose it was rather on the rich side. On the other hand, no short stacks here, so direct comparison is not possible...

No-one has been whining that they're not good enough. The posts on flame colour have all been constructive and backed-up their opinions with something.

Clearly this is something that Oleg is still tweaking.

He's made it clear that the map SIZE is set and not open to debate, but I don't see anyone whining about that. Some of us would like to know, however, if the map objects are still open to revision. Also not whining just a query.

He also explained why blue exaust in most instances is incorrect yet most here want it to be blue?

Maby the refferance in books saying the colour is blue is because they saw the flames in an angle looking straight down the stacks so to speak (from an angle and from behind) , like oleg explained, flames are blue just at the beginning of the outlet and gets more yellow the longer the stacks are.

just guessing.

Very interesting video! It is interesting to see how at high RPM the flames are definitely blue, even with long pipes, but when each flame appears could it be that for this short time the exhaust pipe itself goes cherry-red/yellow? This would maybe explain what one sees...

One question about the last topic :
Will the ground vehicule could be weathered like the planes (maybe in a futur part) or not ?

Great work also :-)
