Air RB - Performance Guide - User guide & Main Page

I’m trying to get the overheating engines and engine degradation in the game fixed. I have submitted a bug report regarding the issue. If you could go to the link below and click “I have same issue” box that would help move this forward toward a fix. Thank you.

Incorrect auto radiator settings, details included // Gaijin.net // Issues

Well, I tried to give some feedback to Gaijin and for whatever reason they were unreceptive to the feedback. As for the exchange I had with Gaijin here is the link:

I’ve started doing some testing again lately and have been observing some changes to the planes in the game.

It would be helpful if any one was interested in testing new MEC settings I’ve found for planes like the F4U-4, F4U-4B and F8F-1s. Having a flight stick and throttle and also mouse and keyboard would be helpful to compare certain differences.

After much thought I have decided to update this chart. I was wondering what would you like to see in this updated guide that isnt already included. I will be adding the time where some planes engine degrade by a certain temperature threshold currently titled “Engine degradation over time or at time. It will look like this” Eng Deg/time or Eng Deg @ time. so for instance the P-38s in game go from 92/122 radiator limit to all of a sudden going to 80/120 radiator limit. this will be shown as:
Eng Deg: (-12/-12C) @ 16min.

I am also noting which aircraft have “resilient radiators”. this is something I’ve found like the P-40E where getting the engine in the white for 30 sec or simply turning off and back on the engine heals all the engine wear incurred up to that point. This will be noted along with yellow, orange and red overheat thresholds to best maximize performance out of the engine since you can heal it at will.

If there are any other things you think might be helpful let me know.

Also will adding WEP duration and MEC 100% throttle speed.

I will be updating this guide, my question to the community is pretty straightforward.

Would you like the new performance charts to be separate and current performance charts to be left as a comparison to see how much has changed or would it be better to simply replace it with the updated version?

As some of you already noticed the overall guide has been revised regarding the individual modules. I wanted to get that done before uploading the first chart which will be USA. I’ll use that for feedback and applying any changes/ improvements to the other charts for each nation before I upload them.

I’ll start uploading the new charts in the next day or two. I’ll probably upload the new chart/alongside the old charts just so everyone can compare them. after that if it becomes confusing I’ll simply remove the old ones and instead give a link to a spreadsheet of them.

Currently, Germany is being prepared to be uploaded and I hope to have it up in the next 2 days. I’ll continue to upload 1 nation every 1-2 days.

I will upload the changes log, to both the game and the guide when all the nations are uploaded.

I’ve been asked why I dont use spoilers at least twice now so this is why. I personaly use these charts when I fly and its much easier to just scroll on my ipad pro rather than scroll and open the spoiler.

In short I found its just simpler and easier.

If you are still looking for data, testers I am willing to help… I don’t know much about how to collect that data, but I have WTRTI installed and I am willing to learn.

I’ve been using your guide for the last month trying to learn MEC for different A/C. If there is something I can do to help, I will. I appreciate the huge amount of effort put forth here.

Sure, If you have discord I can walk you through a test flight, it will take about 30-60minutes to go through. If you read the testing methodology, thermodynamics and the MEC section it will take less time to get through the flight test since youll already be familiar with most of the subject matter. Shoot me a PM if interested
