They only said it was not recommended to run for over 5 mins on 12lbs... in actuality, who knows how long it could have gone for. Judging by the conservative nature of most engine manufacturers, probably a lot longer... |

the manual states 5 min max, this really means you should get 'at least' 5 minutes before engine damage starts to occur.

Are there any cooling trials for the Spitfire I/II?

I suspect I am doing something wrong tbh, the behaviour of the power, RPM and mixture is different than before so it's like learning as a beginner.

I don't know of any myself but then I am not a great one for collecting data, annecdotally the Spitfires had no issues with cooling once airborne and would maintain stable temps at full throttle with rads closed, so I see no reason temps would change the 5 min limit, I think the failure times should be randomised somewhat to make it much more like real life, but with 'hard coded' limits you just get an engine that goes 'bang' exactly on time, let's face it, there are many many stories of aircraft returning home with massive amounts of battle damage to the engine and they kept running and they certainly werent designed to run under those conditions.

Are these new engine variants so powerful that its possible ATAG may limit them on their server in the name of "balance?"
