If you look at the video Luthier posted in the latest development update you can see the pitch "clock" instrument moving in unison with the throttle changes.

there is one, its just a thumbswitch on the throttle
this switch replaced the lever on the panel - if there is a automatic or not.

It's very nice to get new models/variants. I hope the next updates are RAF though. It's a little disheartening to see the opposition get new and improved toys.

Bring 'em on though, I say. We shall never surrender.

Yes i know it's in the throttle like later models , i thought it was changed to there when automatic prop control was appeared but i stand corrected.

The cannons themselves do not have HUGE improvements...the only difference is the velocity for the Mine shell, due to the rounds lower weight this also caused the existing mgFF to need to be modified to cope with the higher velocity, this i believe was the main difference (correct me if im wrong)...their might have been a slight increase in rate of fire...what this does is it bring the Luftwaffe cannons to their pretty much standard fittings with the availability of Mine shells, which we should have from this point forward which should be exciting...
or may
The MG151/20 is the cannon that you are thinking of with the huge improvements...we will not get that to the f4 or maybe a 110 variant...
