Really good video.... I’m glad I found your page since I decided to give flight simulation a go after a decade hiatus. As a “semi-retired” pilot I now have too much free time so this looks like a good way to spend it. Have a great day.
Thanks so much for your work on these training videos. Enhances gameplay tremendously. THE BEST. Hopefully you'll have time to add the Me410 and the Mosquito to your Hangar
Thank you very much for the guide but some of the panels look dark and it was necessary to photograph in optimal lighting conditions or at brighter angles
Thanks for all your videos, really saved me for the Duck and other BoS and BoN planes, hoping to see your ME 410 and Mosquito videos soon. I see you also fly the Mosquito in DCS, how comparable are the 2? Like if I use your DCS videos for the numbers (like rotation and landing speeds, boost pressure settings ect) will the 2 match up do you think?
The Mosquito in Il-2 is not modeled correctly which is why I haven't made a video for it. Simply put, the turning tendencies for the Il-2 Mosquito are backwards. After my reports were ignored about it as a beta tester this motivated me to make a video for the DCS Mosquito instead. All of my videos are what I think of as being "sim agnostic" because they're always based on an airplane's real life manuals and performance figures, so if you fly the same airplane in different sims they are still a good reference.
@@RequiemsACTL that's great to hear. I discovered that from by P-51 notes for DCS and your notes for the one here in IL-2. Super glad to hear that the 2 sims match up well.
In “On Special Missions: KG-200”, a captured Razorback with needle tip props was evaluated by the Luftwaffe as such: “The P-47D out-turns our Bf-109G-6” (as is obvious in actual combat). Typically a P-47 will gain 1/4 turn every 360 at low speeds and medium altitude.(Judging from 800 combat reports at Mike Williams “WWII aircraft performance” site) There is even evenly matching or more turn fighting on the deck with Me-109G vs the P-47 saddled with 2X 1000 bombs(!). “We maneuvered advantageously on the deck, with bombs, and scored 3 kills to one damaged.” To understand this, see my channel where a revolution in our understanding of low-wing propeller physics is roughly explained (in the description box mostly), and will soon be put to a real-life test...
Glug-glug-glug goes the Jug. I have to say, after the recent update, the Jug ( both versions) are much more responsive to fly, you'll notice it more on steep turns . Although don't expect to turn like a spit or a yak but it's definitely much better than last time ( it was basically a turning brick). I'm not sure if this will cause engine damage in real life or is not encourage in the POH, but I don't engage the boost until 7000ft ( I remember somewhere it states the boost shouldn't be used below 7000ft and that the boost should never be fwd of the throttle. Maybe this will cause damage) However I don't think it's factored into the flight engine modelling . I generally have the throttle fully fwd and use the Pitch like a throttle.
I don't remember seeing that note about the turbosupercharger anywhere. In the D series manual I have it recommends always interlinking the turbo and throttle until the turbo starts overspeeding. I have an N series manual as well... I'll have to look and see what that says
Ok, so I had a look at what I have manuals wise for the P-47 and found a couple of notes. The one that makes mention of losing 300HP is from the N version of the manual (AAF Manual 51-127-4) which has the blue backgrounds in it's pictures where it also mentions everything can be interconnected through all altitudes (both on p.24). The black and white pictures are likely from the B/C/D/G manual (T.O. No. 01-65BC-1) and the D-25 through 35 manual (AN 01-65BC-1A). From the C models onwards is where the interconnection feature is available, so if you're using it you may need to reduce throttle after takeoff slightly, below 7000ft, to prevent overboosting but once you're above 7000ft you can go full throttle (summarised from pages 6-7, 23 of T.O. No. 01-65BC-1).
@@RequiemsACTL great stuff! Thanks! I guess I got confused with various models mentioned in that clip. Either way, I appreciate P47 more but I'm still not engaging anything unless I have altitude and surprise with me : P. By the way, I've been looking around trying to get sponsorship for my CPL but in this current climate...it's harder for sure . Stay safe and happy flying!
@@RequiemsACTL I believe the reason behind this is basically that it is better for efficiency to have the throttle fully opened and to compress air to the level of boost you like, rather than overboosting and closing the throttle to make up for it. This latter strategy incurs losses in your low pressure loop (the exhaust/intake phases of the cycle), by having the air pass through a partially closed throttle. These losses can be significant (and go as high as around 10% IIRC), which is why systems such as variable valve lift have been developped.
Hey requiem! Another perfect video but I have a question. So in DCS it was advised to me that I not use the turbo until above 7k ft due to the power used (and made) by the single stage mech supercharger on the engine. Is this true? And also does it apply to IL 2 as well?
Hey Jeremy, I have done a series on the DCS P-47 as well which is the D-30 / D-40. I can't find the exact reference at the moment, but my understanding is that you leave the turbo and throttle interconnected from the ground up until you reach the turbo's critical altitude then you disconnect them. That isn't necessary of course but it makes life easier. If you're following proper engine parameters then you won't have a risk of excessive manifold pressure.
hello!! everytime I watch your video Im realy wonder about your head control!! do you use a VR or Head Traker? Anyway do you have any info to give me or any list for do it good? I've got the X56 Rhino! Thanks man your video are amazing!
@@lucapasqualetto6397 I only have TrackIR so that's all I know really. There are homebuilt options out there but I'm afraid I don't know anything about those.
Ahhhhhhh..... the chalk.... THE CHALK!! Thou hast not completely forsaken me!! Cheers Req.!
Yep I knew you'd feel better hearing that lol

Cheers V R, welcome back!
Thank you so much brother, been waiting for this. Greatly appreciate all you do for us sim pilots.
No worries, appreciate it Dilbert!

The DCS mosquito stuff will probably be out first
Great video, can’t wait for Normandy.
Could you possibly make a video for the Mosquito? Take-offs are giving me absolute fits.
Thank you very much for the guide but some of the panels look dark and it was necessary to photograph in optimal lighting conditions or at brighter angles
It was even darker initially and I had to up the gamma. I thought it looked ok but I'll do better next time
How do you look off and different directions while still being able to fire?
A device called TrackIR

This states a B model but he says it's fairly close to the D's as well.

can we et a Me 410 tutorial pls
Hello sir
Did you not make a video for GB Mosquito? I only found DCS videos for that plane
The flight model is incorrectly modeled in Il-2, and it isn't getting fixed, so I haven't made one.
@@RequiemsACTL all aircraft are incorrectly modeled in IL-2 GB. They don't stall.
DCS and IL-2 Cliffs Of Dover/Tobruk seems to be more reliable.

Your patreon link in the description is connected with the sentence after it :)
Oops, fixed...thanks Roland!
@@RequiemsACTL No problem :)
BoN is out already?
how to use the controls manually plz?
You may have to turn off the engine assistance in the settings before you start a mission.
