Couple things here: First, you are exploiting a bug that let's you go above 2700 RPM, which will be fixed soon. Don't go past 2700. Stick within the engine limits. You'll find these on placards in the virtual cockpit, as well as in the manual and actual POH. This bird requires you know the operating limits, so learn them and drill them into your head. As for everything else, it just seems that maybe you're still learning about warbirds and engine management, which is great! We've all been there and you've chosen the correct path I'll give you my observations to help out: After takeoff, set cowl, oil, and intercooler flaps as desired. You don't have to close them just because you think you need to. It all depends what is happening with your temperatures. I didn't see your engine cut in this video, but I'm willing to bet it is because you closed your oil flaps, then oil temps went into red line and you cooked the engine. Also, you don't need to do anything with the intercooler flaps unless your blower is on, which it's not for takoeff (I hope!). Leave those closed so you don't have more drag than needed. There's nothing in the checklist about setting your trims to neutral after takeoff. Leave them alone, and slowly trim as needed for hands off flight at your desired flight condition. I noticed as soon as you took out the right rudder trim, your slip indicator was showing you needed more right rudder, so you would have been better off leaving the rudder trim in, and slowly taking it out only as needed depending on what the ball was showing. As for the shaking, you may have broken something in the engine. You were at high manifold pressure and pulled your RPM back VERY quickly. This would have overstressed the engine big time. Manifold needs to be pulled back before pulling the RPM back. Very quick movements with RPM and throttle put additional stresses on the engine due to high accelerations and decelerations. Treat it gently, and she'll treat you nicely as well. Whenever you move from one setting to another, give it a full 3 second count from one endpoint to the next. This bird takes some studying, and learning the basic principles. All of the above can be found in the POH. Read the actual POH linked below, and it all applies to the DCS module as well. I've read thru this thing almost 5-6 times now. It's invaluable. Also read thru the manual included with the module, just so you know some additional DCS-specific things. https://www.vmfa251.org/pdffiles/Corsair Manual.pdf Just keep at it. You're doing great

Stop going to 5200-RPM. 2700 should be Max. Yes it's a bug as I've already told you in another thread. The engine took damage from that and most likely caused the engine driven fuel pump to fail. You're auxiliary fuel pump is off. With a damaged pump, you had no fuel going to the engine which would have caused it too stop. As for the shaking, it's most likely the cause of going to 5200-RPM and drastically dropping the engine speed to 2550.

Marianas Universal Proving Grounds
mkel2010 replied to cfrag's topic in User Created Missions General
Getting back into DCS after almost a year off. I'm using the latest versions of VoiceAttack and Vaicom Pro which seem to work correctly on other missions/maps. However, when I fly the F-16 on either of the Marianas Proving Ground Missions, I can't get a response from ATC either on the ground or in the air. I have the main DCS menu set to Easy Comms off. I've tried initiating calls to start engines, taxi, take off, etc. from both the menu options and using Vaicom Pro. I get "my" voice repeating the command, but never get a response. I initially thought my version might be out of date so I downloaded the newest version and get the same behavior. Any ideas how to fix this? -
Take a look at the attached vid. successful carrier launch. Max RPM, gear up then flaps up. Cowl flaps back down to minimum. Reset trims to neutral. I had inner cooler and oil coolers set to near closed. Then when I bring the RPM's back to about 2550 (manifold at 44) - continuous power - the plane really starts to shake. Noticed this after the last update. The shake only goes away if I take the RPM way down under 2000 or way up to like 5200. What am I doing wrong? Oh PS I thought all you "engine stopped" people were nuts, but I just had my first one. Right on take off, temps fine, gas full. I keep coming back to this thing, even though I know it's wack, I just luv it so much, LOL My Project.mp4

I posted "I want it all" by Queen as a simple reminder of how the wish list works. Please don't be the guy that Frankie was singing about in the line as funny as it may seem Some people get their kicks Stomping on a dream It's important to remember that in the virtual skies of DCS there are going to be some modules you simply don't want. That doesn't mean other people don't want it. DCS lives or dies based on ED and the other developers abbility to provide as many differnt modules in as many differnt eras as possible. I make jokes that the official DCS wishlist is published by Janes. He's passed away but the A-26 pilot I know was also a P-38 pilot. No matter which version we get I'd love to have Newt's Livery in DCS

That's good to know. I'm just sick of having to rely on outside material when a lot of stuff should be inhouse.

How’s the ol girl coming along? Trust all’s well and everyone’s tip top and Bristol fashion on their landing techniques (mentioning no names, ahem) Keep it up

FREE Campaign : Mi-8MTV2 - Palestrael 25
Antiguedad replied to dggoofy's topic in Missions and Campaigns
The bomb squad one. You can edit the mission and make the car trigger zone in front of the mi-8 a little bigger, and then the bomb squad gets activated. There are another two missions with the hospital helipads trigger zone shifted that also can be edited to work correctly. -
I got shot down in an A10 C2 as well without the RWR going off

I've given up any hope that this simple QoL feature will be implemented, and have switched to Open Kneeboard. Can be positioned anywhere you want and it will remember that setting You can add custom images/folders to show up in additional tabs, for e.g RWR codes, in-flight restart procedures, etc It shows radio log transcript history Supports multiple profiles, so you can have different customizations for different airframes and many more...

Please Address Game Bloat from CoreMods & Excessive Liveries
niru27 replied to celestHawk's topic in DCS Core Wish List
As someone who doesn't care what livery someone else is using, I agree 100%. At the very lease those liveries should be made part of the module itself: if I buy the F14 for e.g. it implies I want to check out the different skins. If I don't, it implies I don't care for it. Forcing everyone to download skins for modules they don't own is just a waste of space. -
@Tom P you can use Open Kneeboard, it shows radio log transcript in one of the tabs, as well as MIZ briefing/slides

Well... whatever can be easily accessed through the hotas for a quick glance to grab coordinates and such. The multiplayer dedicated one clumps everything together; player messages, kills, players joining server etc. It can get impractical quite quickly in dense missions. In Single Player however, there is no such message/chat window for quick access. One must press 'escape' to get to 'message history' window, and even that doesn't have any filter to apply for better consulting a certain set of information. Of course, nothing like a good physical notepad and pen in hand like the folks that had flown/flies the real deal irl... or the Phantom canopy for that matter. lol OP mentioned the need to a hotas binding to grab that window up for quick access, and I think it is fair. Maybe something a dual virtual kneeboard can bring in an easy manner (2d and 3d).

What capabilities should we expect from the F-104?
Mike Force Team replied to Hatman335's topic in DCS: F-104
I know the ZEL was a good idea but not feasible after testing. It was a high maintenance undertaking.
