lefty1117 Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Weird thing I am seeing, but perhaps this is normal. I haven't been able to find any threads or see reference to it in the manual. Sometimes I see a "lag" on the left engine on the Mig-29. This usually manifests as the afterburner on the left engine doesn't come on, or it sort of sputters. Sometimes, the engine loses power during takeoff and i'll yaw to the left immediately after lift off. Restarting the engine helps for a little but it often happens again soon after. It's a regular occurrence that made me think it's just a quirk of this vehicle - shoddy engine reliability - but then when I bring it up on MP chat no one else seems to know what I'm talking about. Am I doing something wrong? ============================= i7 5820k | 32GB RAM | Nvidia 2070RTX | 1TB SSD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy1966 Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 (edited) main menu, check and make sure that "random failures" is not checked afterburners are kind of funky also, there is an airspeed and RPM limitations Edited May 9, 2017 by Andy1966 We are Virtual Pilots, a growing International Squad of pilots, we fly Allies in WWII and Red Force in Korea and Modern combat.

Pocket Sized Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 It's an SFM, the afterburner lightoff limits aren't implemented. It seems to me like you're having an axis conflict. Make sure that only one axis is assigned to each engine. DCS modules are built up to a spec, not down to a schedule. In order to utilize a system to your advantage, you must know how it works.

Make sure that only one axis is assigned to each engine. I will check this. I don't think I have any axis assigned to individual engines but perhaps there is something funky in the mappings. i did import a profile for my hotas. ============================= i7 5820k | 32GB RAM | Nvidia 2070RTX | 1TB SSD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aluminum Donkey Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 was there anything mentioned when the mig will recieve a PFM or so? Another 2 weeks :) Which means, another 6-12 months... ...and when you translate that into real-life time, it works out to about 3-7 years. So, yes, ED have announced a MiG-29 PFM a long time ago, but I wouldn't hold my breath. Honestly, I'd prefer that over the Normandy map, or Su-33 PFM--or even the Spitfire. But, good luck waiting. We'll all probably be a lot older when it's polished up and released (and it was probably actually done quite a while ago). Personally I've given up on it, although it might pop up in a few years. I'd prefer the new Caucasus map and DCSW 2.5 first, but as we all know, this stuff is a huge amount of work and takes ages. IIRC, ED first announced Version 2.5 and the new Caucasus map back in April 2016, and it's now May 2017!! If anything, my hat's off to the ED folks for sticking with DCSW all this time instead of abandoning it.

lefty1117 Posted May 15, 2017 Author Share Posted May 15, 2017 Hey by the way my problem was that I had both general throttle and individual engines mapped. Left engine and master throttle used the same axis. I don't mess around with individual engine throttle - too noob/lazy - so I removed those individual mappings and now I'm all set. Thanks for the suggestion. ============================= i7 5820k | 32GB RAM | Nvidia 2070RTX | 1TB SSD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
