blokovchan Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 (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...? Edited January 10 by blokovchan Link to post Share on other sites
wadman Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 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 post Share on other sites
TOViper Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 had a blackout in the F-14B yesterday, but wasn't on AB my channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_Yx920L1ezoWQkYKCGYB9w my PC: CSL | i7 6700 @ 4.4 GHz | Asus STRIX GTX 1070 8GB | 32GB 2800 MHz DDR4 | 256 GB SDD SYS + 500 GB SSD DCS + 1 TB HDD | Win10 Pro my controls: A-10 Warthog Stick + Throttle | Rift CV1 | ViaComPro my mods: FC3 | AJS-37 | F-14 | F/A-18 | F-16C | F-5E-3 | L-39 | (HAWK) | UH-1 | MiG-21 | Combined Arms | Nevada | Syria | Persian Gulf Link to post Share on other sites
blokovchan Posted January 10 Author Share Posted January 10 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 post Share on other sites
Sandman1330 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 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 Author Share Posted January 11 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 Share Posted January 11 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 Share Posted January 11 It absolutely has to do with head position at launch, which is a really cool touch. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
TOViper Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 (edited) I had mine forward looking at the horizon ... but blokovhan's idea seems reasonable, but as Sandman says, ... not a deal breaker but it's there Edited January 11 by TOViper my channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_Yx920L1ezoWQkYKCGYB9w my PC: CSL | i7 6700 @ 4.4 GHz | Asus STRIX GTX 1070 8GB | 32GB 2800 MHz DDR4 | 256 GB SDD SYS + 500 GB SSD DCS + 1 TB HDD | Win10 Pro my controls: A-10 Warthog Stick + Throttle | Rift CV1 | ViaComPro my mods: FC3 | AJS-37 | F-14 | F/A-18 | F-16C | F-5E-3 | L-39 | (HAWK) | UH-1 | MiG-21 | Combined Arms | Nevada | Syria | Persian Gulf Link to post Share on other sites

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