SilentGun Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 I was flying at Angels 26 for like 10 minutes And my pilot started getting hypoxia so I flipped on the oxygen 100% and he felt fine for about 5 more minutes then he started getting dizzy again. So how much oxygen does the mig carry? And is that feature even implemented yet? Link to my Imgur screenshots and motto http://imgur.com/a/Gt7dF One day in DCS...

FishBike Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 I think this might be improved in the latest patch. Before updating, I did a flight where I climbed to 10km and then stayed at or slightly above that altitude until the oxygen pressure gauge read 40. That took 23 minutes from the start of the takeoff roll. After the patch, I did the same thing, and it took 40 minutes. So allowing for a few minutes at the start of the mission where no oxygen is used, it seems like it lasts about twice as long now in that test. Either that or I messed up the test somehow. Anyone else have any results to share? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
statrekmike Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I suppose the best place to start is to know just how long the oxygen on a MiG-21Bis is supposed to last in normal conditions, anyone have any idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrei Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Oxygen is definitely better this patch, however still quite bugged. I started to get hypoxia when the oxygen meter was ~50 mark. That was after ~20 minutes flight @ 7000 meters. So the strange thing is: still some oxygen but hypoxia.

That was after ~20 minutes flight @ 7000 meters. So the strange thing is: still some oxygen but hypoxia. I had the same thing happen to me yesterday, in a mission flown at 7,000-7,500m for quite a long time. The gauge read 50 for me as well. When going through the startup for that mission, I accidentally clicked on the wrong lever to lock the canopy and ended up locking it and sealing it in one click. I don't know if that resulted in an unpressurized cockpit (the cabin altimeter read 3,000m like it normally does) but perhaps that is a factor.

statrekmike Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I am getting a impression that the oxygen issue is a bit bigger than just the oxygen system itself, perhaps there is a issue with how hypoxia is implemented? Is that even something that can change from module to module? Either way, I keep hoping that there will be a fix for this soon, it does limit what one can really do in the aircraft.

Andrei Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 A bit more on the subject. Apparently my problem was that I did not operate Air/100% oxygen switch correctly. Up to ~5000 meters it's OK on air. Above that I needed to switch to oxygen for longer flights. And with the 100% oxygen on I was able to cruise at 10.000m for a decent amout of time before the reserves depleted. In fact, it happened just before it was time to decent with just a bit of fuel left. So, overall, I consider oxygen system fixed for me :) AMD R7 5800X3D | Aorus B550 Pro | 32GB DDR4-3600 | RTX 4080 | VKB MGC Pro Gunfighter Mk III + Thustmaster TWCS + VKB T-Rudder Mk4 | HP Reverb G2 FC3 | A-10C II | Ка-50 | P-51 | UH-1 | Ми-8 | F-86F | МиГ-21 | FW-190 | МиГ-15 | Л-39 | Bf 109 | M-2000C | F-5 | Spitfire | AJS-37 | AV-8B | F/A-18C | Як-52 | F-14 | F-16 | Ми-24 | AH-64 NTTR | Normandy | Gulf | Syria | Supercarrier | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, the point of the issue is that the oxygen should last (unless my assumptions are wrong) much, much longer than it does. Perhaps the dev's could provide more info in terms of just how long the oxygen is supposed to last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny002 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 (edited) Hi, guys! I noticed the oxygen is flowing even with the blue oxygen/mixture turned off. The oxygen indicator was 150 when I started the sim then about 5 minutes later the oxygen indicator got to about 142. Please see attached. Thanks!

Vinny002 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Hi, guys! The oxygen indicator is now down to 50 since it has been a couple of hours ago since the oxygen indicator was about 142. I think the oxygen supply in the Mig-21 lasts for about 10-12 hours and plus the oxygen is not suppose to be running when the blue oxygen/mixture is off. Please see attached. Thanks!

Vinny002 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Hi, guys! I did some tests with the oxygen on the mig-21. The oxygen supply goes from 150 to 0 with the blue 100% oxygen off in about 2 and a half hours, but with the blue 100% oxygen on, the oxygen supply goes from 50 to 0 in about 14 minutes or from 150 to 0 in about 42 minutes. Better, but the oxygen supply still needs some improvement. Thanks! Cheers, Vincent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrei Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Yep, at least you now have an option not to get the hypoxia when running at altitude and 100% oxygen on. Now regarding the duration - MiG-21 has extremely short range. Even with 2x450l and 1x800l drop tanks flying ~10.000m @ 950 km/h fuel runs out almost before the oxygen does.

Vinny002 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Hi, Andrei! Do you know how the oxygen supply in the mig-21 is suppose to last before it is time to refill the oxygen bottle again? Thanks! Cheers, Vincent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny002 Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 (edited) Hi, cobra847 How is the oxygen system for the Mig-21bis coming along? And how long the oxygen supply in the Mig-21bis is suppose to last? Thanks! Cheers, Vincent Edited November 3, 2014 by Vinny002 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny002 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Hi, guys! I got the DCS world 1.2.11 open beta yesterday. The oxygen supply lasts for about 55 minutes to an hour. Better but I think the oxygen supply lasts longer than an hour.. The oxygen supply in the Mig-21bis should last as long as the oxygen supply in the A-10C. Thanks!

Esac_mirmidon Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Why? They have the same oxygen system? Flow? capacity? " You must think in russian.."

Vinny002 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Hi, Esac mirmidon! I don't why. Yes, the oxygen system in the Mig-21bis is the same as the A-10C's oxygen system or very similar. I don't know what the oxygen flow rate is. The oxygen capacity in the Mig-21bis might have the same oxygen capacity as the A-10C but I'm not sure.
