Fw190 weight corrections discussion

[Anaxogoras]

Until we have good data, having the rack weigh nothing is far worse than making an educated guess.  I would make the rack weigh the same as the 109's rack and move on.

The whine that would produce would be astounding.

Has anybody tested the 109s in-game? Do they have any weight on the DT itself, or just drag?

[Grits]

How would you test if it has weight and drag or just drag in game?

E6b has weight.  Take DT, drop it, check weight. Then re-up  without DT, see if there is a wt diff.
 Check speeds same way.

And this statement is based on what from the 'the real world"?  Which 190 are we talking, which 51, what alt, weight, speed etc?

To quote Porkins, "Stay on target!"

Let's try to keep this thread focused. I've sent an e-mail to Pyro with a link to it, and asked if it might be possible to get the weight added to the ETC 501 rack.
