The E4 panel reflects a modded aircraft with Auto prop added. The legend on the blanking plate that covers where the old lever was states this aircraft fitted with Automatic propeller or words to that effect. I am sure the Germans here can provide an exact translation.

Patience Autoprop pitch will come to the E4.

It's called "Automatische Propellerverstellung" but means the same as auto prop

Just played a bit on the Australian Skies server, What a hoot with the new graphics and sound!

Is realistic to be able to hear the whine from the 109 as it drops onto your six? Scarred the bjesus out of me! Might be slightly over done, but certainly a useful cue to start breaking hard! What is it like in the German planes?

Cheers!

old discussion in the IL2 years and still in RoF too:
You should hear almost nothing from outside when your own engine is running at power - no engine and no guns. Hence the reports of pilots in combat who were surprised to see tracers passing their aircraft................they didnt heard the guns not to speak the engines of their foes.

Isnt it like Star Wars - with all that sound in the Space

Well you can only hear them a little bit and regarding the sound of guns I could only hear the awesome sound of 303 whistling past and hitting me AWESOME sounds.

Also the sounds increase when you open your cockpit, still no wind sounds though

only major one missing now.

thats good.

My almost only experience in flying CoD, after i did all my FM, CEM and weapons tests in the first few weeks after release, is flying the Blenheim on ATAG server to sink some ships.
And the FLAK sound is, well, i can hear it

But at coarse pitch the Blenheim is normaly below 2000rpm............

Skoshi, I believe it was I who finally got you & your Hurri tonight on Aus Skies.
Nice fight!.
My engine management could have been better, I probably didn't max perform the engine as much as I would have liked,so when you say you could hear the turbo whine,do mean constantly or did it rise and fall?
Strange that you could hear my engine over your own.

On Australian Skies as SC/JG_Kaiser.

I'm still getting the hang of it myself.

I didn't have enough E to get my gun around to bear and just got lower and slower as the fight progressed.

I found I started to hear the whine and had enough time to see you were diving in from my rear right hand side then break in that direction.

The whine is quite high pitched compared to the drone of the Merlin engine so it wouldn't surprise me if they were able to hear it (Just like I can hear a Harley in traffic over the top of my Charger - not a quiet car, but a completely different engine sound)

Cheers!

Good fun on Aussie skies hope to fight you again soon!
