G2 Trop should sit at 4.0 then. But it sits at 4.3 because gunpods, which is funny, since 1 MG151 is absolutely enough to wreck anything around 4.0, and furthermore, what counts the most is the ability to get guns on target, all the gunpods in the world won't help if the enemy escapes you succesfully and it's noticeably harder to escape Bf 109 without gunpods.

Nice video as always! The G2/trop has also the problem of low thrust at low speed of later 109s that the F4 has in a much smaller extent. Imho the extra drag created by the air filter is exaggerated in this game tough. The difference between the standard G2 and the G2/trop is quite noticeable even without testing, only with a really minimal drag increase. Both the F4 and the G2 trop should be 4.3 imho. Anyway the yak9U is king of the 4.3-4.0 bracket, I don’t mind some under tiered 109s (trying) to face that thing

I do like flying the K4, the extra power is nice but it isn’t quite as competitive against other 4.7-6.7 planes as the F4 is against its 3.0-5.0 enemies in my flawed experience.

Buddy, I see you addressed it a bit in the comments, but did you also do a comparison with the f-4 trop considering it is the g-2 trop you tested? That and or include the non trop variants of the G-2? Most of us if we really care about the 109 as much as each other do, we most likely bought the Romanian G-2 if seasoned players or the Italian/Hungarian G-2 for it's newer players. Also I wonder if the acceleration is the same for both? 100kg weight 300 hp difference, seems like a wash, albeit F4 should still have a turning advantage.

Are you sure that the torque is switched off in RB? I have experimented with full-real controls in RB, and I recall that during takeoff I had to compensate with the rudder in order to keep the plane going in a straight line because it wanted to steer left as in SB. I also recall that during lower velocity flight, when I set my plane into a straight flight, it started to roll counterclockwise by itself, and I had to manually compensate for it or trim. Both phenomena are caused by torque. In RB I think, the mouse aim + instructor might be the culprit of the equalization of the roll rates clockwise and counterclockwise.

Can you showcase how to effectively use the laminar flow wings of the p-51s in battle? Like, examples of how you use high speed handling to reverse enemies in a dive or deliberately trap enemies into a high speed fight and use their poor high speed handling against them. There's nothing like that on KZfaq and most people don't even know that about P51s and use the WS keys to turn (big no no as it breaks the air flow and causes immense drag and makes you lose precious speed with an already sub-par acceleration). You explained the laminar flow already but... Please show us how it's done in a real battle!
@AdamTheEnginerd 3 жыл бұрын
Laminar flow doesn't affect high speed handling, it just means your wing drag is lower so you'll go faster. And in reality it's unlikely that the P51 had significant amounts of laminar flow.

@@AdamTheEnginerdtesting with closed radiators is unrealistic. with open radiators the G-2 definitely heats up slower than the F-4. On some maps the G-2 can go the entire match, including slow climbs, while WEPing without overheating. The F-4 overheats fully even on colder maps with full rads. Idk how much the radiators affect performance though, so it may not be worth it for the extra WEP time.

Made a short video about afterburners here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y5qnlJR7qMe3npc.html&ab_channel=AdamTheEnginerd To answer your 2nd question though, to afterburn you need an extra duct with fuel injectors after the turbine exhaust, that's all. So it adds length and weight to the engine, which could make it harder to fit in an aircraft. Furthermore, the duct increases the losses and decreases the thrust slightly when the engine is not afterburning, so the afterburning capability is not always good.

I have to question the relevance of the overheat test in this video. With all the radiators closed, isn't it more of a test of the engines' heat production and tolerance while removing the radiator performance from the equation? I'd think that if you could only do one test, it would be better to have the radiators slightly open since the engines are probably similar, being from the same faction and maker, so radiator performance is at least a variable.
@AdamTheEnginerd 3 жыл бұрын
Yeah you do have a point. Both aircraft overheat on 100% rads, so we do know that they should be comparable in the thermal department. Perhaps a test at 50% rads would have been ideal, but I'd predict that they would give a similar overheating time.
