released."

Hi xnomad,

look here:

the considerations / ideas in the a.m. thread are interesting but we should careful deal with in connection with CloD.

Maybe that the manual "D.(Luft)T. 3810 - VDM-Verstell-Luftschrauben Gerätehandbuch" can help us. But I didn't find it in open sources.

regards Varrattu

Sorry I'm confused, that's the same link I posted 4 posts above this one on this page. Did you intend to post a different link and pasted in the wrong one or was it an oversight?

Yep, it was an oversight

That's a shame I was hoping you posted the wrong link.
I can't find any more info on this except for the manuals you mentioned that you have to pay for.

"The propellor pitch control on all Daimler-Benz-equipped Messerschmitts is now a spring-loaded electrical switch"
that will be interesting to see how it will work now after the patch....if the rotating axis is still useable !

lol the latest patch has completely wrecked the prop pitch for me.

The directions are now reversed on the lever and the spring holds the lever in the full up position instead of the centre.

The bf109 is unflyable in CEM now.

I have mine on a lever/slider and as long as I bring it back to center the pitch stops where I want it, actually it is more accurate than before as it used to travel on a bit after adjustment, but I think it is working upside down as in what you see in the cockpit doesnt match diagrams regarding this lever.
