did the 109E ever had this "Notleistung/WEP" Button?

[David198502]

well, a few days ago, i heard somebody mentioning, that such a button never existed in the 109E, but the 1,42ATA performance was reached by just pushing the throttle fully forwards....is that correct???
if so, i really wonder why we have yet to push another imaginary button just like the I key, while we are supposed to fly the "most realistic hardcore flight sim"...

If you look at the throttle while pushing that button youll see that the throttle IS actually pushed past 100%. So its just a function given to us by the devs to make setting up controls easier. You should also be able to setup your throttle to function like the real thing if youre able to map the curve of you throttle.
Hotas warthog at least is able to do so. I dont know how bit it is

well interesting, i never looked at the throttle to be honest while pushing the button....but how do i set up my throttle to make this available?if i push my throttle fully forward, then in the settings menu the output of the throttle is stating 110%, but in the 109 this doesnt give me the boost...

I think it is like all the game aircraft with boost controls, push the button and recycle your throttle to full and you will see it travels beyond the 'gate'.

i dont want to be forced to push the button,...i want to achieve it with pushing the throttle only

A few months ago we talked about this (109 WEP) on the bugtracker: http://www.il2bugtracker.com/issues/40.


QUOTE 41Sqn_Banks, translate by Kürfürst:

"Increase of output for takeoff (Allowed period: 1 min)
Through pushing the throttle the beyond "Vollast" (Full load, this is probably the 5-min rating - KF) position, without leaving it in the "Abflug" (Takeoff) position.
The holding of the throttle in the "Abflug" position is unnecessary, and therefore pointless; it will repeatedly return to "Vollast" position.
The mechanical clockwork, which is winded by pushing the throttle in forward will disengage the manifold pressure / boost increase automatically after 1 minute, regardless of the position of the throttle. Holding the throttle in the "Abflug" position does not restart or lenghten the increase in manifold pressure, instead it will just increase the richness of the mixture - and therefore no increase in engine output but an increase in fuel consumption - after the throttle has returned to its position."

The assigned button is the only practical way to have it simulated, without always engaging it by accident.

[David198502]

ok thats interesting, but is it possible to achieve this somehow in game???to avoid the button?

[kristorf]

I can't see why there can't be a 110% throttle option (as in 1946 for certain aircraft) what would induce the required option, same as I would like to see it on the Spit to simulate the known 'push through the wire'.
It would be more realistic and force throttle control.

Now I never fly dark side (unless in squad d/f's on the rare occasion we fly CLoD) so don't know how accurate on the 109 it would be so don't flame me please.

well in HSFX 6 its working the correct way....why not in COD?
