– Re.2001 Serie 1, RE.2001 gruppo 22, Re.2001 CB, RE.2001 CN: These planes benefit from MEC overall. AEC is set incorrectly, it closes to 0% during Throttle100% then opens fully to Rad100/100 using WEP. These planes run notably hotter than others and prop pitch was lowered to Prop90. These planes do not gain additional cooling from high speed, they actually get slightly warmer at high-speed including dives. Time wear: (-14/-6°C) @ 16min. Fuel: 31min. Engine hp drop: 4800m.
*Engine off with (15sec) in white, then back on, usually resolves (Per color) overheat wear.
*Red overheat = (1min)
*Prop90 keeps engine cooler with same performance as Prop100. Prop90 should be used up to 5500m then switched to Prop100.
*Oil Radiator Creates no perceivable drag and can be fully open to 100%.
