Fiat G.50 performance...

[Rickusty]

Shameless bump...

About the power. The G.50 is currently lacking the "WEP" emergency power , called the "+100" (it was +100 mmHg).
Power could reach a max of 960 Hp in emergency mode. Not too bad.
Manifold pressure could go up to a max. of 890mmHg.
In the game, you can't reach this pressure at all, in whatever conditions.

There is no "WEP" switch. If you can see on the left part of the instrument panel, there was a level with "+100" inscribed on it, which is missing in the model.

I wrote the problem on the first page of this thread.
I hope they'll try to correct this problem.
It really looks like the plane is missing about 200hp.

Cheers
Rick

8. Will the performances of the poor G.50 be upgraded to be closer to the real historical values? The G.50 maximum speed today is ~350 kmh at sea level against 407 kmh found in books and online references. The G.50 ceiling in game is some 5000 m, against 10500 m found in various sources.

Lets hope they will correct flight model and performacne for all CloD planes which desperatly need it not only Fiat G50.

Then probably i will start to play in CLOD.

Great, thank you Addman.
I lurk around here often, but not often enough to see all the threads and posts.
That's great news! I hope we'll have all our models revised and corrected asap.

Where the heck is the fuel gauge in the g50? I ran out of gas tonight in the middle of a dogfight...not good.

Any advice for takeoff in the sim? My engine kept stalling on me as I tried to throttle up while warming up. Not warm enough yet?

And the plane kept sputtering and shaking while taking off. Plus it takes forever to get going on the ground.

Once I got airborne it was fun to fly though.

fuel, right side panel.

i warm up till 200 degrees before start. and dont forgett, mixture is manuel in the G.50

I wonder if the G.50 did have a boost control that prevents over-boosting below FTH.

Edit: As there was a +100 button to obtain higher boost it obviously did have a boost control.

[kestrel79]

Thanks Franky I found it.

Any tips on warming up to 200? That has to take forever the current way I do it. Rads closed and give it some throttle does that work best? You also have to adjust the cylinder head knob to get a proper reading right? Some guys on ATAG told me that last night and it helped setting it on "3".

I cannot get the G50 past 3000 m. I am fine all the way up until I get up there then it starts to lose power. What's the configuration needed to climb past 3?

You hve to work your climb with modesty

To give you a tip : I am unable to escort BR20 as I can't even fly at their speed at such height !
