I have tried to compile a huge resource of information I found and apply it to all planes in WOFF UE, but if you notice any oversights or mistakes on my part, they are not attributed to Bletchley.


Type 1. Fine fuel adj., but fixed (air) throttle (always on 100% or off, engine can be 'leaned' in flight but not throttled back), and has a blip-switch. e.g. Gnome Monosoupape 100 hp rotary

DH2
Bristol Scout:
the 80 hp Gnome was used until the second half of 1915, until 80 hp Le Rhones were substituted. RNAS used Bristol Scouts powered by the 100 hp Gnome Monosoupape.

Type 2. Fine fuel adj., and (air) throttle control (not linked, so any change in throttle setting also requires a change in mixture setting, and the mixture also needs to be leaned as altitude increases). Engine power range from 50% - 100%, below 50% it will cut out (see footnote1). Has a blip-switch. e.g. Le Rhone, Clerget, Bentley rotary engines.

Type 3. Fine fuel adj., and (air) throttle control (but linked together, so that any change in throttle setting automatically changes the mixture setting, so mixture setting requires only to be leaned as altitude increases and NOT as throttle setting changes). Engine power range from 0% to 100%. e.g. all non-rotary engines (i.e. Stationary) inline and v-type.

FokkerDVIIF:
the BMW IIIa engine had a separate altitude lever, hence Type 3, unlike most other German high altitude engines where the altitude control was integrated with the throttle movement

Type 4. As Type 3, but with no altitude compensation control (DO NOT use Mixture), i.e. you can throttle back or forward, but altitude still affects max ceiling.

Type 5. use Type 3, but limit throttle to 0-5-3-1 on the keyboard

Type 6. Rumpler CIV use WOFF default controls.

NOTES:
- Use manual engine start for best immersion.
- Fly at max air speed during combat.
- Either engine cut (ctrl+E) or Fuel cut can be used during prolonged dives when appropriate.
- Blip used during taxi or landing only.


footnote1: for the 80 hp Le Rhone it was quoted in Great War Aeroplanes Association (GWAA) Great Times vol.6 issue 4: 'The rpm range of these engines is about 500-600 rpm at idle, static, and 1200-1300 rpm at full throttle in flight... [and] ...that 500 rpm you had on the ground at idle is over 650 rpm in a glide.' i.e. because the windmilling of the prop is said to add another 100-150 rpm during flight.
