blokovchan Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 (edited) When F14, fully loaded is launched from dcs supercarrier I experince second or two blackout. I found about two years old topic in F18 section about this problem.. Is it still a DCS bug or something else...?

wadman Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 If the F14B, it's probably because you are launching in afterburner - which was prohibited in real-life, anyhow. That's the only time I've seen a blackout on cat launches. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blokovchan Posted January 10, 2021 Author Share Posted January 10, 2021 Yes indeed, it was that. Thank you. Well I didn't launch with full afteburner - with about 100% rpm.... Admin, please move from bugs section... @TOViper It seems, that we had to much trust even with not full afterburner, mil power is about 90% rpm, or you can check it on thorttle, there is a mark when it is at mil power... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandman1330 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I get the same thing when taking off at mil power as well - it’s been around for awhile now. Not a deal breaker but it’s there.

blokovchan Posted January 11, 2021 Author Share Posted January 11, 2021 Well, anyway: yesterday I tried to launch with almost fully loaded (about 95% max takeof weight), with throttle at 90% rpm and there was no blackout. Carrier had speed 25kt and wind speed was 10 kt - upwind. Perhaps here is the catch: if indicated air speed of cairrer is to low, catapult has to give you to large acceleration...

captain_dalan Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 It happens at times, but not always, so not sure why. I fly the A BTW, and generally similar loads, 2x3x2+2 or 4x2x2+2. Sometimes there is a short blackout sometimes there isn't. I wonder if it may be related to head position during launch? Oh yeah, my burner is generally in zone 3.

Kondor77 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 It absolutely has to do with head position at launch, which is a really cool touch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callsign JoNay Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Has nothing to do with head position for me. It seems to happen if I've been alt tabbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found about two years old topic in F18 section about this problem.. Is it still a DCS bug or something else...? I suspect there is an issue with an induced G force as a consequence of aligning the F-14 to the flight deck as it starts its cat shot. Likely the 14 is being moved extremely rapidly a few inches up to align it to the deck, leading to the game thinking your pilot just experienced 20Gs or something. I would bet that the sea state and the pitch/roll of the carrier plays a role as well as MP sync issues and/or client framerate/bandwidth. Personally I see this bug about once per week, but have never noticed any correlating variables due to how infrequent it is.
