markturner1960 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Hi, is there a way to move the point at which the afterburner kicks in, in the sim forward physically on the throttle please? I have removed my physical detent and would like to make use of increased range of movement.

Thanks I think you have setting curves on the Throttle axis like all other axis, you'll need to set it up so the A-B kicks-in at your desired throttle setting. Win 11Pro. Corsair RM1000X PSU.

gorky85 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Yes, you have to adjust throttle curves to match detent point. It's not complicated, just requires some messing around with manual curves, you will be done with it in 5 minutes max. This is the reason I love my Warthog throttle, that detent is making it so much easier to control AB usage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again,.. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=250033 Sorry but I can not explain better than what I did there. If that is too hard, then just use the in game user response curve.

markturner1960 Posted May 23, 2020 Author Share Posted May 23, 2020 Thanks, I am struggling with this so please bear with me. Antoine, I will try following your guide again later, as could not do it the first time. I have been trying to see how adjusting the curves would move the point at which the AB kicks in, but have not managed to do anything that seems to affect this. I am finding this somewhat frustrating, as I am not stupid, but just can’t seem to figure out what to do. I have watched Redkites guide and read Antoines thread several times, but am not getting it - to the point where I have had to do something else for an hour as it was really pissing me off! Let’s just talk about the user curves here for now, as always good to start at the basics before diving into Antoines’ deeper waters...... So I have the black square which shows physically where the throttle currently is. How does DCS decide where 100 rpm or AB is then for a particular jet (and let’s just consider the hornet here) If I want move my 100 rpm point nearer to the end of the travel range, exactly how would I do this within DCS? step by step, rather than just “adjust the curves”.

CBStu Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 I just wanted to match AB kick in to the detent position. I did a free flight and 'F2' view so I was looking at the back of the jet. I moved 'curvature' from zero to 8 or 9. There seems to be a little bit of slop in the system. When I first did it I set it at 10 and later realized it went into AB at the correct position but coming out of AB there would still be a partial AB when I pulled the throttle back just off the detent. So 8 or 9 fixed that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel free to contact me directly on Discord, hon0#0570. Or on the Hotas/Hosas/Simpit Discord, which is born from r/hotas. https://discord.gg/szqaJE7 We could share our screen and it would be much easier for me to teach you how to do that weird curve things.

markturner1960 Posted May 25, 2020 Author Share Posted May 25, 2020 Thanks Antoine, really appreciate the offer, I think I will have some time on wednesday or Thursday during the day, if that works for you. never used discord, will look into this....
