Wrench Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 ok, somebody refersh me... is it Liters, Galoons, killograms or pounds of fuel in the tank?? what I've got is an aircraft with a total of 682 liters, internal tankage, and I keep getting bingo calls well below the range specified in the data ini. (which I've actually cut down a bit) NormalMissionRadius=750 MaxMissionRadius=850 the BSFC seem ok...for a Napier Sabre... here's the statements from the data ini: [LeftWingFuelCell] SystemType=FUEL_TANK FuelTankID=1 MaxFuelAmount=341.0 <---- SelfHealing=TRUE FireSuppression=TRUE StructuralFactor=2.5 FireSuppression=TRUE MinExtentPosition=-0.5,1.2,-0.3 MaxExtentPosition=-2.5,-0.6,0.3 HasArmor=TRUE ArmorMaterial=STEEL Armor[TOP].Thickness=5 Armor[bOTTOM].Thickness=5 Armor .Thickness=5 Armor .Thickness=5 Armor[REAR].Thickness=5 Armor[REAR].Thickness=5 [RightWingFuelCell] SystemType=FUEL_TANK FuelTankID=2 MaxFuelAmount=341.0 <---- SelfHealing=TRUE FireSuppression=TRUE StructuralFactor=2.5 FireSuppression=TRUE MinExtentPosition=0.5,1.2,-0.3 MaxExtentPosition=2.5,-0.6,0.3 HasArmor=TRUE ArmorMaterial=STEEL Armor[TOP].Thickness=5 Armor[bOTTOM].Thickness=5 Armor .Thickness=5 Armor .Thickness=5 Armor[REAR].Thickness=5 Armor[REAR].Thickness=5 that's the correct amount in liters...but I don't think it's correct for "ingame" usage. so, what's the right anwser?? thanks (or tanks!) people!

+RAVEN Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 (edited) kg -data.ini lb - cockpit.ini kg - drop tank 682 liters = 180.18 US Gal Avgas 180.18 x 6.02 = 1084.68lb =491.92 kg JetA,A1 1225.224 lb = 555.66kg kerosene? It's nice to have an aircraft fueling lic. Edited May 17, 2013 by RAVEN Quote
Wrench Posted May 17, 2013 Author Posted May 17, 2013 cool! I"ll give that a try obviously, each tank gets half that (245.96) btw, Raven, in you abundence of spare time (!ha!), I wonder if you could whip out a 'special' 44 gallon RAF tank, one with a short plyon attached? I know it's not even close to historical..but the Tiffy hasn't got ANY pylons for bombs/rockets, and I really don't want to 'fake pilot' them like I did the FW-190s (although, it is an option; I just reduce the rockets to 6 instead of 8/and or mount a rocked on the plyon) screenie of aircraft in question (note the emptyness between the tank and wing) Quote

+RAVEN Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 I was just looking at the data for the Tiffy and the Napier saber and at full military power range is ruffly 302.69mi. Quote
