  1. Open the .miz file with an unpack software like Winrar or Winzip, the chart is inside l10n/DEFAULT folder.
  2. In fact we were the first ones to add that feature, AFAIK. We have the copyright :D
  3. And of course, this is very important, during manual mode the engine throttle must be operated smoothly (avoid rapid power changes).
  4. What's simulated in the C-101CC is the total computer failure, that means you'll have to use the Emergency Fuel System (back-up). What happens in this failure is that throttle is not controlling engine power anymore, or not reliable. To provide fuel to the engine to be able to continue to the nearest suitable airport, you'll have to press the emergency fuel switch to energize the system, and place the emergency fuel lever in the required fuel flow. Before setting the emergency fuel switch to ON, place the emergency fuel lever to the nearest indicated fuel flow. To return to manual mode from back-up mode you have to place the emergency fuel lever in 125 lb/hr What I have added now is Engine Computer Failure (manual mode). The engine is normally controlled in AUTO mode, with computer korry ON. When pressing the computer korry the computer enters manual mode, this simulates the failure of the engine computer, which is different from back-up mode, since in back-up mode the fuel flow is controlled by the emergency fuel lever (power lever will not be used). In manual mode, you have to be careful not to exceed engine limits since engine protections are lost, though the computer is partially operative and therefore it still provides overspeed protection. In manual mode (after computer failure), an amber warning COMPUTER will appear in the failures panel and the computer korry will not illuminate yellow (like it happens when pressing the korry to test the system in normal operation). It's also important to note that when starting the engine in manual mode, the starter must be disconnected manually at 50% N2, pressing the abort start switch. A full description of the system cannot be done in a few words, but these are the main considerations to take into account.
  5. Added engine computer failure (manual mode). We already had engine computer total failure (back-up). Will be available in next update.
  6. That sound was added on April this year. Tono (Tone) trim is in the left console (see page 52 of DCS C-101 Flight Manual (Figure 3-45 Emergency panel 6 TRIM TONE BREAKER (FRONT COCKPIT ONLY).
  7. Failures are WIP, as you know.
  8. We've just connected fuel enrichment button from Flight Model to systems. In other words, added functionality of fuel enrichment button. It will be available in a future update. Now it will be easier to perform an air start for example, or starting the engine at very low temperatures.
  9. Thanks for the compliments. I've changed the thread tittle to the real name which is Fuel Enrichment Button. In fact mixture fuel-air is a specific term used in piston engines.
  10. WIP.
  11. It's only available for the C-101CC.
  12. Good to see that someone pays attention to the failures we implemented, and provides some feedback. Can't guarantee that we'll look at those issues very soon, but we take good note of it. Thank you Rudel and enjoy it.
  13. Fixed. Will appear in next update.
  14. Use this file. It will be fixed in a later update of course. C101Core.rar
  15. OK. Let's leave it here since it's an off-topic. In any case, happy landings… :)
  16. If I were you I would use T9 and T10 on your Thrustmaster Cougar for speed brake using speed brake extend and speed brake retract control inputs, for example, T9 extend and T10 retract. You are missing a fundamental function of the speed brake when using toggle, which doesn't make much sense. You could use S3 shift for flaps extend and retract to next position.
  17. Rudel, you know how this all works, but you are mixing up things a bit and that could probably confuse people. Let me explain what have we done and how this all works: We didn't make any changes in Flight Model for very long time. The extension of the speed brake causes a pitch up tendency in this airplane. To avoid that, there is a connection between the speed brake and trim. What happens is that when pressing the speed brake switch the trim acts at the same time, trimming to compensate that pitch tendency just described, so that when extending the speed brake the trim will pitch down (thus compensating the pitch up moment of the speed brake), and vice-versa when retracting speed brake. When the speed brake reaches the limit (full extension or full retraction), microswitches detect this and cut the trim, so that it doesn't keep trimming even if you keep the speed brake switch depressed. Before this last update, in our C-101 simulation, there was no cutout of autotrim when the speed brake was reaching the limit. What we added in this update is this cutout function. As well as the malfunction of the cutout, which is something that can occur in real C-101's. In your video I see that the autotrim is working, but since you don't stop depressing the speed brake immediately after the speed brake reaches the limit there is some pitch moment still acting. Also, take into account that pitch moment will always change a bit even when autotrim is acting, since there is a change in airplane speed, unless you add power to keep current speed. If you want to test the effect of speed brake in pitch moment after this last update you have three options: - Activate the failure in ME. - Open the emergency trim guard (if flying the C-101EB be sure that TONO TRIM (tone trim) is pushed in, otherwise the emergency pitch trim guard will not cut the relation between the speed brake circuit and the trim circuit). - Pull out trim CB's.
  18. It should be correct like it is now, i.e. the trim should stop when speed brake reaches full deflection. Though it could be that it doesn't happen in some airplanes, but in that case it's a malfunction, it's not that there are several versions of the aircraft. We have a feedback from a real pilot who said it shouldn't stop, but in general all pilots say it should. The real in-depth data states it should stop. So we have added it as a failure in ME, if we get more feedback that suggest something else, then we would add it as a special module option or ME option.
  19. You are welcome. Nice to see people happy :)
  20. Jet engines (turbofan) thrust is managed using N1 or EPR.
  21. Hi Jester. What you are saying is just the opposite of what it really is. The C-101 is equipped with a Garrett turbofan with two mechanically independent spools. Please take a look at our startup training mission and at our manual to understand how the start sequence develops in the C-101. It’s very clearly explained in the startup mission, and the engine described in the manual.
  22. Fixed. You can use this mission/missions. Extract the content of the rar in \Mods\aircraft\C-101\Missions, replacing the original files with these ones.
  23. Hello Konovalov. Do not hesitate to apply that fix. I confirm you it will work :)
