Air Brake Sound Out of Synce with Position of Air Brakes


Recommended Posts

Posted

Have noticed from time to time the Air Brake Sound (Loud Wind) is absent when the air brakes are deployed.

 

Also have had the opposite when switching airplanes mid mission after crashing my initial plane where the Air Brake

sound is on but the Air Brakes are not deployed.

 

The Air Brake switch located on the throttle is not implemented in the Beta it seems so the only way I can tell

if the brakes are deployed is to go to an external view.

 

This is really only a problem during dogfights for obvious reasons.

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy and I've had both.

Thank you for reporting. Can you provide a track? I will see if I can replicate it in the current internal version.

Missing throttle animations are already reported (ticket #27013).

Have a little related question:

Since the throttle animation is missing, if I use the "Speed Brake - Extend" and the "Speed Brake - Retract" switches. Does the "not animated-switch" return to the "Speed Brake - Neutral" switch if extended or retracted fully?

 

If not, I've read that the switch should not be keept in the extend or retract position if speedbrakes are already, for several reasons. Are the concequences simulated at the moment?

Thanks for your reply derelor.

 

 

Sorry I do not have a track to send you. I was noticing this on Street Sweeper mission from F86 missions if that helps.

 

 

If I do get track I will post it here.

I guess you are talking about this warning in the speed brake section of T.O. 1F-86F-1 (p. 1-39):

 

Warning: Since the speed brake hydraulic lines are routed near the engine, it is important that the speed brake switch be kept in the neutral position to cut off hydraulic pressure and minimize the fire hazard in case of a damaged line.
I'm pretty sure this is not simulated at the moment. And to be honest I also don't know how this could be simulated accurately. Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

To add here. When you restart your current mission with LShift+R (Restart Mission), the airbrake sound will be missing on the first airbrake open/close. On the second airbrake open the sound will cut in at its loudest point and then behave normally.

 

I have airbrake binded on single button Joy31 (Airbrake). Lets say you take the free flight quick mission, fly around and then hit LShift+R. That's how you should get the situation described above.

Replicated and reported (ticket #27859). Thanks.
