S!
Ace, Lipfert stated clearly he used the drag to slow down. Not arguing against you Tamat, just wait for Battle for Moscow and we will see Russian planes doing it all better |

Wow! This is great news, now I can fly in my G.50 with radiators fully open with full confidence!

One thing I want to try with the Spit & Hurri rads is to open and close them and check any change in climb rate. This meshes with what you're saying in a way -- it seems to me when I close my rad the speed doesn't change but by climb rate increases. Obviously, when I trim accordingly to keep the climb rate where I want it, the speed will increase.
However.......we've had a couple of beta patches plus the most recent retail patch, so I could be dead wrong on my observation above. I have noticed the canopy open/closed has no effect on drag/speed. I tend to fly canopy open now for 1) better visibility -- especially in the Hurri 2) you can hear the DB601 supercharger whine directly behind you as a 109 is lining you up!

S!
Addman, Finns had problems with the Fiat G.50 overheating and it took tedious work to solve it, even own parts were made to overcome issues with the Fiat engine. |

Ok I don't want to say the dull word but there is Hurri's and Hurri. I hve experienced some fight with some of my opponents hving strange behaviors. I think your expe is more related to that.
Pls next time you see me flying a Hurri on the server let's hve a try and see if it's the same (I won't shoot.... at least I 'll try hard ) I can guarantee you that if you pull over to catch some speed and then fly level, automatically you'll extend easily from a hurri that is in your back. The distance increasing as soon you push that noes down (loss of power for the Merlin eng) |

Ok, guess they've nailed the FM on it in CloD then because you need to have at least half rads open on it unless you're doing 300+ kph. BTW, you don't know any good material (books etc.) on the G.50 in Finnish service? Cheers!

Yup, always checking my RPM when I fiddle with the mixture and of course you know it's wrong when the whole plane starts to shake.
