ATAG Dedicated Server is up!

[ramstein]

could more pilots please try to get close to the actual take-off runaways instead of running through the fields wide open? it's like the drunk skiers running down the slopes running over people with the skiis...


just askin', thanx..

[ramstein]

There is definitely something wrong with the model, now it will blow a gasket after a while of flying conservatively.. the boost is way too fast to overboost..

not sure if the prop is the cause, but something is wrong.. with the Rotol

IMHO

Good conversation though, I really enjoy this and it's always interesting to read other's guys insights and share the knowledge so to speak.



Ah I see.



You're right here with 2600 for Merlin III, klem. I checked the manual again. I must admit I am doing 2850 in game whenever possible (don't tell my ackack ), especially when I get involved in a melee right after taking off. Sorry about the confusion, my memory si crap. Obviously, you've been correct in advising this new chap flying her by the book. I'd say later on when he gets used to the CEM, he can certainly squeeze more power in some situations.



I don't think it's that because Spitfire is not doing that - it seem sto be far more consistent. I'd say they really modelled the Hurri with a bit of variety, which feels great in game and I really hope they will model this in some extent for all planes.



This is what I don't get mate - never happened to me tbh. 2600 is very low. What is you red settings and what is your IAS?

Sorry about the OT guys.

Did you check your temps? Revs? Rads? I have yet to experience a malfunction on the hurri, she isn´t easily overheated (unless you really go for it, i.e. fully closed rads and rpms way above 2650). now the spittie on the other hand .

Quick OT reply

We run with at least 50% Rad in the climb but I often use 100%. IAS is around 160+/- 10. ROC ~2000.

You are blowing the rotol? I fly the entire mission firewalled using just the prop to regulate RPM. Very effective but hardly realistic - they need to tone it down some I think.

What's wrong with the server?
Flying is not possible! Friezes powerful( launcher 40-50 minutes.)
This I did not have before.

Hello Blis & ATAG's. is it possible to have different times of day for server missions? maybe a random generator to launch an early morning. midday or late afternoon mission set?

Rad 100% open at all times especially in the climb, same IAS and ROC, 6.25lbs @2600 - 2750rpm in climb and not even close to overheating her. I begin my take-off run when water reaches 60C, full boost at 3000rpm. Then level her up to gain airspeed, rpm immediately to 2600ish. Water cca at 95 at this point. Climb or fly at this setting forever, water stays around 100C (95-9 as it should do. Under some 14.000 feet I got to watch my oil temp rather than water. Above that alt water begins to rise and you got to be careful in climb if it needs be. (obviously no problems at cruise settings). I found that if you start well with your temps you will be alright during the entire flight. If you happen to get your water temp close to 90 while still heating her up on the ground, you will be struggling, especially when you get her above 15k. I din't find any difference in airspeed between rads fully open and closed.

ramstein - I don't think there is any major problem, blown gasket means you're doing something seriously wrong I am afraid.

Mr.X - I had some warps and lags yesterday when the server got busy but otherwise usual stuff today.

Normal?
All throws from the server all the time.
We are all in the TS...We are throwing out for 2-3 people at once

[SEE]

There have been some problems recently - a lot of us were thrown out of the Server continually whilst others seemed OK - I think it may have been a steam issue rather than a ATAG server problem.
