DmitriKozlowsky Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 Why does turbine shuts down if throttle is moved to idle or any position? Even slight throttle retardation shuts engine down. I had to map axis rotator with modifier, so as to not accidentally bump or mistakenly retard throtle in flight. In KA-50 and UH-1H on ground, throttle can be set to idle. Right now once started, turbine throttle has to be in full open. Even when on ground, when it be idling. In training videos, on YT, for turbine helicopter shut down, a two minute idle prior to cutoff is either recommended or required manufacturer. Obviously that is on real world helicopters.

Correct, the DCS SA-342 procedure/switch position is different to the SA-341G manual and youtube videos. IIRC Polychop said their starter switch logic was correct for the French SA-342M. i9 9900K @4.8GHz, 64GB DDR4, RTX4070 12GB, 1+2TB NVMe, 6+4TB HD, 4+1TB SSD, Winwing Orion 2 F-15EX Throttle + F-16EX Stick, TPR Pedals, TIR5, Win 11 Pro x64, Odyssey G93SC 5120X1440
