MTFDarkEagle Posted November 8, 2017 Author Share Posted November 8, 2017 In the axis tune menu, where you set the curves, look at which point in the curve it sits when you have your actual throttle against the detent and slightly change the sliders up/down to make it fit better.

Buckeye Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 Has anyone done curves for the Harrier to stay below the 102.5% RPM to avoid the engine over heating?

Home Fries Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 You can’t do a static curve with the harrier because the RPM percentage changes with altitude, temperature, airspeed and nozzle position. I just keep it linear and keep an eye on the RPM indicator. 1 -Home Fries My DCS Files and Skins My DCS TARGET Profile for Cougar or Warthog and MFDs F-14B LANTIRN Guide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montrose Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Awesome guys thanks. Anyone have curve numbers for a10c so I don't have to switch the afterburner indent? Idea is I would be at max throttle when I hit the indent and not require to push past. Ang help would be great [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montrose Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 (edited) Hmmm once I put the afterburner detent in I don't seem to get full throttle.

Home Fries Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Why would you use the detend when flying the a10c? So you can have the detent for afterburning planes, and just use the "dry" portion of the throttle for the Warthog without having to remove the detent. -Home Fries My DCS Files and Skins My DCS TARGET Profile for Cougar or Warthog and MFDs F-14B LANTIRN Guide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably for the exact same reasons most real fighter jets have detents (or finger lifts, etc) to be able to push through in to burner? It's used as feedback for the pilot.

MTFDarkEagle Posted March 9, 2018 Author Share Posted March 9, 2018 Well if your aircraft is fitted with an A/B you'd obviously use a detent of some sort.. I just don't understand why you'd run with the WH detent when flying the A-10C... You'd have to make some curve which utilizes a smaller portion of the total axis range...

Let me make sure I am following...you're then proposing that people take the detent in and out based on whatever jet they are flying? Not a bad idea really, given how quickly it can be done...probably more of a hassle than many people are willing to go through though.

Stache Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Ok Gents, I purchased the push through AB detent from Debolestis, I'm using it on the F-5 with the recommended curves from this thread (and thoroughly enjoying it). I was perusing the F-5 manual this morning and stumbled across this gem: Afterburner System Afterburner operation is initiated by advancing throttle beyond MIL mark. Afterburner lightoff on the ground should occur within approximately 5 seconds. NOTE. The game provides the ability to restrict the movement of the throttles to MIL (imitation of spring detents). To use this feature (spring detent) it is required to assign key in the CONTROL SETTINGS control parameter THROTTLE RANGE (Press to change). does anyone know how to use this key/function in DCS? —————— i7 7820x 4.3ghz Asus tuf x299 mk 2 32gig G.skill 3200mhz ram 500gig ssd OS 2x 1tb ssd raid 0 GeForce GTX 1080 HTC Vive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogueSqdn Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 It’s been a while since I flew the F-5, but I would think that detent key would have to be ON for you to advance into AB. I’d also think you’d have to use TARGET for this to work (I’m not against that, I do it in all non-A-10C aircraft).
