It’s a mechanical governor right?
Where is it mounted on the engine block?
Just curious )))
A centrifugal governor (Fliehkraftregler) located on the coolant pump drive, controlling butterfly valves in the intake manifold and depressurising the carburettor control box (Steuerkasten).
-
At 800-2000 rpm the first carb butterfly is open under the driver’s control, the increased rpm partially opens the first control slide inside the carb control box and allows pressurised (7 Atü) oil to flow up to the second control slide.
-
At 2000-2500 rpm the second control slide is opened by the driver, allowing pressurised oil to compress the compression spring, which fully opens the second carb butterfly.
-
After 2500 rpm the governor begins to restrict air intake by closing the intake manifold butterfly valves, and pulling the first control slide to its second position, which depressurises the compression spring and returns the second carb butterfly to the closed position. Depressurised (1 Atü) oil is returned to the engine oil filter.
“GOVERNOR
In each inlet manifold a longitudinal shaft controlled by the engine governor carries a butterfly opposite each carburettor butterfly, thus completely overriding the driver. The governor is of the centrifugal type driven from the timing gears and incorporated in the drive to the water pump. The inlet manifolds have drain holes to deal with excess wet fuel.”

Is it historic? Well, that’s it, gaijin, what are you waiting for to implement it?

The US T34? That is significantly more mobile than any Tiger 2
here to back my brotha Rulan up.
all the people that are against this because it nerfs it, I tap the sign.
your favourite vehicles deserve realistic representation, not a history channel at 2am representation.

Won’t happen, Gaijin does not rely on historical data for mobility, penetration and protection. Its all simulated in a way to make it consistent and easy to implement with minimal research while still "feeling’’ realistic. Penetration is based on formulas, top speed is based on theoretical maximum, maneuverability is simulated estimates and armor, even simple steel non compost does not behave at all like armor does irl and even things like how angling interacts with AP rounds is very simplified to the point were it doesn’t resemble reality much.
This game is the epitome of history channel at 2 am representation

Mfw when Gripen has Mav Gs.
Mfw when idk Soyuz.
Idk I only remember these ones.
Oh ye and maybe period correct armaments and mixing block numbers on like half of the jets in game.
This is legit just nitpicking but there’s a bunch of stuff that hella veers off that path.
You can tap the sign as much as you want but it isnt going to change Sh*z

im pretty sure there same
all right so if where gonna be historically accurate tiger 1 h1 should be fighting 3.7s. Russian T34s should have paper armor cause of poor quality. T80s should have there autoloaders be made flammable due to flammable hydralic fluid.
mig 19s should explode on run do to many technical faults in fuel systems.
yeah the extra 2 hp per ton isnt very noticeble to me
they are not the same
Not surprised you said something like that. Because there’s no defence you actually have
Does that “realistic representation” include the part where Tiger I faces M46s, Bkan 1Cs, 2S19M1s, Object 268s, MILAN ATGMs, etc…?

Sounds like a quick way to get the Tigers to a lower BR…
Well, this is what happens when a 1943 APHE is infinitely more lethal than a 1960 or 1980 HEAT-FS. But anyway, apparently that’s not a problem since practically no one complains, and then in the vote to “do a test” with more realistic APHE damage, the No won.But hey, but the vote was No so as not to break the well-made balance of the game haha.

Yeah… I love how many people actually agreed with the changes yet still voted “No” just because they felt that “Gaijin wouldn’t be able to adapt BR changes” lmao
