dov Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Hallo Now, this time a stupid question, since I built many Fw-190. The stencils of the gear cover says Federbein Solldruck / suspension leg / nominal pressure Über / unter 4600kg. Over / under We see marks and numbers. They are the Solldruck. But how to read it? I thought that the rear smal triangle door is used a indicator. Actually I have no clue! Can anyone give me an idea? Happy modelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dov Posted October 31, 2023 Author Share Posted October 31, 2023 To explain the topic a little better and make it easier to understand: First a video to see the main landing gear. If you look at the landing gear cover, xou read Federbein Gesamtdruck Where is the indicator? Is it the upper edge of the rear triangular cover? Wirg the inspection and maintenance manual, what does it say? Maybe you know the answer. Happy modelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bozothenutter Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 That would be the rear triangular 'flap'. It is mounted to the upper part of the leg, while the main door is mounted at the bottom (telescoping part) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dov Posted November 2, 2023 Author Share Posted November 2, 2023 Now, the question of the wheel bay doors is solved: It consists of three parts. Upper part fixed on the gear leg. Lower part fixed at the axle of the wheel. Mooves with the wheel upward during compression of the oleo. The triangular part is connected with the lower part at the rear. And mooves also during compression! The triangular cover mooves together with the wheel and lower cover, against the fixed rectengular part on the landing gear leg by itself. You see the on the photos different positions. The red arrow shows the upper kink of the 'rectengular' cover, as orientation! What are the numbers of the pressure on the fixed cover? This is unsolved. Since the manual writes all down as for nominal pressure is 25 atü required. What is it of interest to know more detail due to the compressed ole? Maybe you know it.

dov Posted November 10, 2023 Author Share Posted November 10, 2023 @Bozothenutter, great thanks! This is, what I concluded, but there was no proof until yet! The two different pressures of 27 and 32 atü is exactly what I needed to understand. Since the other manuals confirm just one pressure. The real pressure is indicated now! Perfect, question solved and answered. Happy modelling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
