Title: AH2 and WEP
Post by: Flyboy on October 16, 2004, 07:21:03 PM

why do we suddenly have WEP for the C47 and on the other hand lost the WEP in the yak9T?

just seems odd

I was going sent Hitech email for request that F4U-1 don't have WEP like F4F-4 and older planes, but I was thinking something about F4U-1A have Water and Alcohol injected to boost engine power if needed like WEP.

Still I have to find something about between -1 and -1A.

Yeah I was surprised by that too!  However, the poor goony bird needs all the help it can get!  How about adding the door gunner like AW used to have ;)

Its always had WEP hasnt it?  Or rather the sound changes, I dont believe theres actually an increase in power.

WEP has a major impact on the goonie.  Top speed jumps from 200 to 225!!!

The changes were just due to corrections needing to be made.  I didn't have an engine chart on the C-47 when it was first introduced and assumed it only had a military rating.
