P-47 top speeds revised
« on: January 20, 2002, 10:30:19 AM »
S!
I finally re-tested jugs after D-30 update. Test conditions:
- Testter -terrain
- Wind 0,0,0
- Fuelburnrate 0.0
- 50% fuel
- all guns with full ammo

1. 0 & 10k alts: Full throttle for 3 minutes, estimate TAS reading and put it to climb speed, if climb needle starts to rise, then true speed is higher and so on. Adjust climb speed input until needle remains at 0, record speed. Hit WEP and wait 3 minutes, same procedure as in MIL power.
2. 20 & 25k alts: as above, but for MIL speed wait for 5 minutes and for WEP speed 4 minutes.

TAS speeds:



D-30 gained only 2 mph with its wep boost. I don't know how much it affects to climbs, tho.
