That's why they move fully up/down when you press the open/close keys but "jump" back to the middle when you release it. You can verify this if you go to external view and look at the radiators. The 109 has "pole-flag indicators rising out of the wings that signify the rad position, i'm not sure about the 111 thought.

Other than that, great job for helping people get to grips with CEM

Ahh ok cool, i spent ages trying to work out why it kept going to the middle, even bringing the engine controls up, didnt cross my mind to look at the actual radiators lol
