Re: Fw 190 VDM propeller blade types
Hi Badatflyski,
Thaks for your message. May I ask you for the source of your information? If I understood you correctly:
The propeller weights were added if the fuselage fueltank was installed, but not the ETC (which would have been moved forward)?
Or did you mean that the weights were an additional measure together with the moved forward ETC if the fuselage fueltank was installed?
It appears to me a rather complex solution to add weight to rotating parts (to offset the CG shift due to the fuselage tank). Wouldn't it have been easier to add it somewhere in the engine compartment or e.g. increase front armor thickness? Or is there yet another reason why these weights were added?
Regards,
Roger
