Title: Current test on B-29 and P-38L
Post by: earl1937 on August 02, 2016, 10:39:33 AM
 :airplane: I spent about an hour flying the 29 and the 38L! Clouds did not affect my FR at all, in fact, it stayed about 60 until I entered the clouds, then jumped to 97 to 101, whole time I was in clouds!
Both aircraft flew pretty decent, but sound still not what it should be on both! Graphic's are great!
Not sure if this info will help, but I am not sure what else to do when in there except fly and bomb!

Earl, could you please try hard maneuvering in the '38 and let me know what you find?   

Something happens for me in the 38s that doesn't happen in other twins; I'm still testing and comparing.   Basically the engine pitch varies wildly and the plane becomes hard to control when I do high G maneuvers.  I tried this in the Bf110 yesterday and did experience any of the same issues.  FLS says its the result of the new prop model.

EDIT: I can duplicate this now in the Bf110c.   Got airspeed to 300 and initiated a scissors, pulling to blackout in each direction, letting up a bit, then reversing.  Takes about 3 before plane's engine rpm is fluctuating pretty badly.

I haven't noticed the rpm fluctuation in single engine fighters though; will keep testing.

:airplane: Next time in AH3 Beta, I will try what you suggest on the 38

Oboe,

I found that I had an analog control mapped to the aileron trim.  This pushed aircraft into a spin rather than roll unexpectedly, as well as forced extra controller input to maintain control if combat trim was turned off.  Is it possible that either a throttle or rpm control has been likewise compromised in your profile?
