Over-revving the FW 190 D9 1945

[Bolelas]

If you are trying to find a bug (or a non-bug, jusk like RPS69 said), thats ok.
But regarding the engine management (at lest in game), in a very steep dive just like the ones refered here, you only have to profit by using manual prop-pitch. Over-reving doesnt only mean overheating, but also means loss of power. When the manuals refer the best power RPM it means below that RPM you have less power, and above that RPM you have also less power.
Beside that (at least in real aircraft) the blades turning very fast smash the air instead of mooving the air away properly. (Someone correct if i said something wrong- Not expert.)

I remember on a spanish server, (gRiJ), once after everybody left, we stud only 3, and instead of dogfighting we went for the "airshow" manouvers, follow the lider, smokes etc. We were chasing this spanish "gRiJ Torero", we all in bf109, and after the third dive i heard my friend engine go dead! (he was just on my side) Then i asked: No manual Prop-pitch? He was on auto. He never used manual.

If you dont have one extra axis lever for prop-pitch (witch is very intuitive to use), and if you are using keys, remember that you can adjust that prop pitch value before changing it to manual.
Most times people change it straight on the 100% mark, and the engine imidiatly over-revs! If you use a key to +pitch, other to -pitch, click e.g. 8 or 9 times the -pitch key, before you pass to manual. If you have lots of speed and throttle on, press more times, than, after passing to manual, check RPM, and adjust if necessary. When you start climbing get ready to adjust again, or pass to auto prop-pitch again. Here you must anticipate, or you will lose precious RPM. The value of manual pitch will stay exacly where you left it when you passed to auto.

I know most people sure knows this, but hope someone will learn from here. Thank you people.
