Auto start and speed

Recommended Posts

So I have come across an issue. I am a habitual user of the auto-start function mainly due to not having Track-IR and only one monitor. Recently I have noticed that when I use the auto-start function and it runs on its own and completes, that when I takeoff I have issues gaining speed. I can never seem to get the speed above 180-190 knots even with full afterburner. Also the autopilot features do not work.

 

Flip side of that, when I do the manual start-up and follow the guide, everything else seems to work fine. SO I am wondering if the auto-start is missing a step.

 

Thanks

Auto started today, didn't have any issues. Then did a manual start, parameters and behavior were identical. Are both engines running after you've done the autostart - or has one possible "windmilled" and you are only having thrust from one engine?

The only time I've heard of people not being able to accelerate has been game Physics/avionics mode engage in the gameplay/realism settings. Don't know if that applies here.

And if my input was incorrect, ^^ this ^^ would have been my next suggestion as well. Figure one of these two will sort your issue out OP. Good reference Deano

According to the engine monitors both engines are running fully. When I do an external view, I confirm that both engines are fully engaged and providing thrust.

Make sure you have Game Flight and Game Avionics disabled through your DCS Options.

And try performing a manual start and see if the behavior changes. It shouldn't be an issue with the auto-start, a friend uses it regularly and he doesn't have any issues (at least I think so, he's flying fine).
