Tuna-Salad Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 So I know the A-10 is capped to not go above 85% N1, but is there a way to override that in the 'oh shit' situation? I've read the entire manual and have not seen it mentioned anywhere. Bueller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randomTOTEN Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 is there a way to override that in the 'oh shit' situation? Yes the key command is LCTRL+E (x3):thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lobo Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 I may be wrong, but I don't believe there is any extra 'oh shit' power in available in the Hawg. Snoopy?

Ziptie Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 I may be wrong, but I don't believe there is any extra 'oh shit' power in available in the Hawg. Snoopy? Admiral's doorbell is the only thing I know of that will give you any extra "oh shit" power - and that is obvious how it achieves that, also obvious what the next step is if you make it back to base......

Rescue Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Sure you can. Sort of.. You can Switch Engine Fuel Flow from NORM to OVERRIDE. This allows to exceed the ITT, what will result in a higher (yellow bar) RPM of the Engine Core and so I think a bit more Power. (So I think, never tried it!) Didn't know where in the Manual but it's for emergency purpose only. This is not for a SAM coming at you but more for a last-mile-engine-2-dead-land-on-airfield-chance option. Somewhere it stands, if you stay for to long above 9X% your engine will be damaged or may cause fire. Could be all wrong. Didn't flow this for a looooong time. And so many other People here understand the Hog way better than I. Grettings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you switch to OVERRIDE in DCS nothing changes. v303d Fighter Group Discord | Virtual 303d Fighter Group Website | v303rd Fighter Group Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zarma Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 I used it once when one of my engine died. Used it for too long and the second engine went on fire… not sure if it was related to damages or the switch. i9 9900k, 64 Go RAM, RTX 4090, Warthog HOTAS Throttle & Stick, Saitek Combat Rudder, MFD Cougar, Trackir 5 Pro, Multipurpose UFC and Oculus Rift S (when I want some VR), http://www.twitch.tv/zarma4074 / https://www.youtube.com/user/Zarma4074 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
