saburo_cz Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 One source claims that the P-47D-30 had speed 345M.P.H. with WEP. Another reports, not the D-30, show similar speed with minor difference. WEP is 64inHg with watter injection, not simulated at this moment in DCS. 345MPH is 555 km/h, but DCS P-47 (without water) can reach TAS 593 km/h (590 IAS), it seems to be too fast. just as a reference, the P-51 in the same conditions, should be around 579 km/h and i reach 570, with the P-51 i am close and satisfied. Map setting was 15°C 760mmHg Normandy no wind F-15E | F-14A/B P-51D | P-47D | Mosquito FB Mk VI |Spitfire | Fw 190D | Fw 190A | Bf 109K | WWII Assets Pack Normandy 2 | The Channel | Sinai | Syria | PG | NTTR | South Atlantic F/A-18 | F-86 | F-16C | A-10C | FC-3 | CA | SC | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 That does seem to be to fast. However, we'll want to nail some things down. While the WI component does not seem to be implemented yet, from looking at the gauges, it does appear that you are getting the full 64" at 2700 RPM, so you should be getting the equivalent of full War Emergency power, even with the WI system not modeled.* What was your take-off weight? Looking at the IOM on the three planes from WWIIAircraft performance (http://www.wwiiaircraftperformance.org/p-47/comp-p47dmn.jpg), the takeoff weight is 12,731 lbs. That said, the same report lists the P-47M, with 2800hp WEP as having a 367mph (587.2) top speed at sl, so it does look like the plane's going faster than it should be at sea level. We will want to nail down aircraft loaded weight, and the presence and absence of pylons, and whether that does anything, to zero in on the exact issue. *I just noticed that it looks like your water pressure gauge is showing a reading. I haven't had a chance to get on yet, since the patch, but I'm wondering if the automatic WI parts just got implemented? The to bat-plane! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ala13_ManOWar Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Was that test carried out in Channel map? If so remember it's currently fixed at 0ºC despite ME setting, and that has something to say about IAS/TAS conversion even at sea level. S!

Swagger897 Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 just noticed that it looks like your water pressure gauge is showing a reading.

And vacuum on the left? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
