I don't want to be the 🧐guy, but V1's used pulsejets, not ramjets.

@@leventesapi9882 Thanks, slip of the tongue/whatever the typing equivalent is

😂 Better a random road than a densely populated spot at least. If I was good enough I'd plonk them into the water every time

That sounds pretty interesting to check out!

Appreciate it Bill, keep at it. We're all trying to get better that little bit a a time 😊

😂 Good luck. I think your best bet is to ram it while it's still on the ski ramp!

Cheers Snowy, hope you're enjoying the holidays!

Jcomm! It's been a while for sure, glad to be kicking things off again. Hope you have a great 2023 too!

Cheers! I'm working my way back into things. The wing damage is possible actually, but it happens if you're too aggressive with your pull and roll to force the tipping. Regarding the Mosquito... there are videos coming.

@@RequiemsACTLThanks for responding so quickly. After seeing how easy the mustang now will snap its wings when pushing the nose over to avoid a collision when overtaking your target followed by a roll and pull however slight I thought for sure your wing tip would snap off even though your were gentle. Good to know that you will be easing back into the videos.

Happy holidays, hope yours was fun! Mine was ok, I was out flying passengers to where they needed to go, so at least they got to spend it with family. I was home New Years eve then out again early morning Christmas day before coming home a couple days later.

You can touch all airplanes in close formation without causing damage but it has to be gentle.

Using the quick mission generator will let you create V1 intercept missions

Ultra, no SSAO or HDR.

Yes, so everything is set to the max possible with all boxes ticked except for SSAO and HDR.

That is true on variable pitch propellers. The pitch angle of the blades have to be made coarser and coarser as the speed increases in order to make the prop paddle air instead of windmilling. This is how the Bf-109E-3 and earlier worked for instance. However, on most if not all mid to late war warbirds, the prop is a constant speed propeller. That means a mechanism will keep the propeller spinning at a constant speed by adjusting the pitch angle of the blade. That means when you apply maximum manifold pressure at max RPM, the propeller will move to a coarse pitch angle, in order to be paddling as much air as possible. The induced drag of the propeller will be minimal, however the spinning drag induced by the propeller will be at it’s maximum, which will make the engine give a high power output to be able to conserve the rotation speed of the prop. If you go idle on high RPM however, the prop will go on to a fine pitch to reduce the spinning drag of the propeller in order to keep it spinning fast, but that will drastically increase the induced drag of the propeller. So to make it short, on a constant speed prop, at a high manifold pressure output you want to give the propeller as much RPM as possible to be efficient. At a low manifold pressure output however, you want to have the propeller RPM down to increase the efficiency of the propeller. In any case, if you want to go as fast as possible with that type of mechanism, high RPM and high manifold pressure is the way to go. That is my understanding of how prop RPM induces performance losses or gain, and how a constant speed prop works. Anyone feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.

I slightly modified my comment because I got confused with the definition of a fine and coarse pitch, I had them inverted. Now it should be better.

@@Robin-zu4re I thought so :-). Thank you for the answer. So it was the case of the pitch vs rpm lever.

Yeah they did. Obviously it would make them easier to spot in flight as well as increase vulnerability of the He-111 when used as the launch platform at night

Yeah I managed to make one now I'm all sorted out in Boston. I almost forgot how to make this stuff! Haha

@@RequiemsACTL Much love ❤️ keep it up
