mnrty Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Hi all. I have a quick question i am hoping someone out there can answer on. The changelog says WEP is implemented, but i can't figure out how to get it working! Does someone else know ? Thanks in advance Mnrty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mnrty Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 same here, i think i've tried everything now. Is it something we have to do with the throttle ? or is it a way to remove the wire by a key command ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimmyD Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 I did that but when I press 'E' I am still waiting to get the power...it's not there. It shows in key bindings on control screen but nothing happens. Can I bind this to my clutch button on X52 Pro?

Nate--IRL-- Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Depends on engine RPM and altitude too. All it does allow more Manifold pressure, but not in all cases. Go full rpm at sea level and then press E. Nate Ka-50 AutoPilot/stabilisation system description and operation by IvanK- Essential Reading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team Olgerd Posted October 3, 2012 ED Team Share Posted October 3, 2012 Technically speaking 'E' key just breaks the safety wire, and thus allows to advance throttle beyond its maximum position. So to enable WEP it is not necessary to fly at sea level. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] К чему стадам дары свободы? Их должно резать или стричь. Наследство их из рода в роды Ярмо с гремушками да бич.

What is the best altitude to use the WEP? No it is not possible to return the lock, as the wire is still broken. And.. btw it is a good idea to repair it - now it will still broken even after repair. Not sure about altitudes. It is better talk to Yo-Yo (he is the author). 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] К чему стадам дары свободы? Их должно резать или стричь.

And.. btw it is a good idea to repair it - now it will still broken even after repair. Not sure about altitudes. It is better talk to Yo-Yo (he is the author). WEP increases the max boost from 61 to 67". It means that the crytical altitude (the altitude where the blower can produce this boost with the open throttle) gets lower. So the best effect will be at low level and just after the blower is switched to HIGH to the second crytical altitude.

Tailgate Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 How long can I run at 67 hg without springing leaks? What instruments do I keep an eye on? Oil pressure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobek Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 How long can I run at 67 hg without springing leaks? What instruments do I keep an eye on? Oil pressure? Max rating for WEP is 5 minutes (that is, overall, not only consecutive). Keep a close eye on coolant and oil temperatures and expect dramatically reduced reliability for the engine after that (e.g., don't expect to get 15 minutes of full mil out of the engine after 5 mins on WEP). Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tailgate Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 It sounds like the engines needed overhauling after every air engagement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobek Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 You don't necessarily need WEP to win an engagement. The emergency in the name is there for a reason. Everytime the wire was broken, the engine had to go through a complete overhaul. Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives!

WildBillKelsoe Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Just out of curiousity, how much force was needed to break that wire? more importantly, how did they 'stay away' from WEP once wire broke? My guess would be to shove a knife in the slot before WEP... but that is just me... AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below.
