Blenheim problems (CEM)

the digital info "0% mixture" is mis-labled. It really means "lever all the way back", same as in the Hurricane.

Thanks. Didn't know about mix beeing reversed, might be why I break stuff, running too lean.

yep, they realy should work on it

in the G.50 and Moth as examples throttle (of you gamecontroler) full forward (100%) means "cockpit lever full back" too.
IMHO thats the the way it should work in all planes . YOUR Gamecontroler is giving the amount/direction and is showing the digital numbers. In whatever direction the 3D incockpit lever is moving.....
they can change this when it is possible to set controls for every plane itself !

I think that mixture don't make diference. I move all way and the engines don't show any change in rpm...

Try taking off on lean. You will see that you need some more power. Sliding to rich (or normal) is the way to get that power. You'll notice the difference there.

and that would be 0%, correct ?
you have to start the engines with 0% anyway

Well it means all the way back. I made the comment because Siegfried said it made no difference at all. I found it made a lot of difference, especially on the take off run.
Levers forward=weak (lean)
Levers backwards=normal (rich)

Temps are the most imporrtant issue on this plane. Cylinder head temps are critical. Keep in between 200 and 240.
