No, I don't think there is anything wrong, other than my lack of pitch adjustment and not having radiators open, because I was getting the issue, certainly with the F4U, in a stock install. You can see what I was doing in the track I posted a link to.
So, if there was something wrong it would be in the patches from 4.11 to 4.12.2 and it's obviously not because others aren't having the same issues - presumably because they know how to manage their prop pitch, radiators and throttle.
In 4.10 I was only managing throttle. I've never bothered with radiators or prop pitch. I've always left prop pitch on 100% or "auto pitch". But you obviously can't get away with doing that in v4.12.2.
I've done 2 missions with the Mosquito since learning to manage my prop pitch, in the 633 Squadron campaign (which appears to work fine in 4.12.2), and I've not had any problems with overheating.
@Woke Up Dead - thanks. One reason I'd like a crib sheet is because I tend to get bored with IL2, put it away for a while but then pick it up again later, and in the meantime I've forgotten stuff. So a crib sheet with vairous details like cruise RPM and supercharger change over points would be very helpful. It seems like every time in the last 18 months I've come back to IL2 I've had to do a refresher course...
