WWI Engine Governor

[Toad]

I kinda like hearing the engine knocking.

MY airplane has more throttle settings than fully closed or fully open.

Two of the four WWI aircraft shouldn't have any other setting than fully closed or fully open, unless a choke is introduced.

So I'm not capable of moving my throttle in small increments to keep from over-revving?  I don't know about anyone else, but MY airplane has more throttle settings than fully closed or fully open.  It's not hard or an encumberence to manage the little bit of throttle needed.

The Camel only has a very limited number of throttle settings (large increments) compared to the D7 which seems to have continuous adjustment (small increments).  Maybe 2-3 between fully opened and closed vs 7-10 (just a for instance to illustrate the point).

the choke is the throttle. check the signs inside the cockpit and see where they go

I haven't tried the Dr1 or the Camel, but the choke should allow only a very limited variation of power through changing the mixture.

The engines actually do "step down" like the real thing, but the sound ramps down linearly. It's a cosmetic issue, reported right away when first noticed.

Having the ability to stall when you want to can be a good thing depending on the situation.

As for the governor, sometimes I turn Linda Lingle on, sometimes I turn her off.

  I have the ability to stall all the time though LOL

I've been using the gevernor the last couple of times I've been in the WWI arena and I actually kind of like it.  While I haven't noticed the changes in speed affecting the outcomes of my fights it has stopped me from ripping the wings off my new favorite WWI bird in a dive, the F2B.
