Snarf Posted November 24, 2016 Posted November 24, 2016 Description: Start up tutorial, I follow the instructions exactly and as I get to turning on the auto pilot axis and master the engine RPM decays to nothing. I can get the axis switches on but the auto pilot master will not switch on probably because the engine has died. Also the tutorial asks me to check earlier that turbine RPM is ok but gives no indication what ok is. Example: As above. DCS Version: 1.5.5.58891 Steam: Non steam Map: Its a training mission so where ever you place those, ukraine for this one I think. SP/MP: SP Reproducible: Can be reproduced 100% of the time. Step to Reproduce: Just followed the tutorial exactly. Screenshot/Video available: Haven't done this yet but can if necessary. Track Available: Didn't get started so no track. Mission File: Its the cold start tutorial. Controllers: Thrustmaster warthog throttle, thrustmaster warthog HOTAS, Track IR and Saitek pedals. OS: Windows 10 RAM: 32 Gig GPU: Windforce GTX980 G1 Gaming Mods: None
myHelljumper Posted November 24, 2016 Posted November 24, 2016 The 2 needles on the RPM have to be synced, so you have to push the yellow lever slowly or the engine will blow. That is not a module bug but the tuto should maybe specify it. Helljumper - M2000C Guru Helljumper's Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCK3rTjezLUxPbWHvJJ3W2fA
Snarf Posted November 25, 2016 Posted November 25, 2016 (edited) Reading the check list for the helicopter it doesn't really follow the tutorial procedure. For instance you wait for the rotor and engine RPM to sync and then advance the throttle but no mention of slowly. Normally FCU scheduling would prevent the engine blowing up from a rapid throttle advance anyway, so find it odd that it does if it does. N2 RPM shouldn't materially affect the N1 system anyway, I could hold a UH1H rotor still till 52% N1 and have no material affect on that system. (this was done to make the underslung rotor accelerate more rapidly) Ill try this and see what happens. Gazelle DCS checklist below. https://goo.gl/images/WwMPsK Edited November 25, 2016 by Snarf
myHelljumper Posted November 25, 2016 Posted November 25, 2016 Is this check-list produced by polychop ? Helljumper - M2000C Guru Helljumper's Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCK3rTjezLUxPbWHvJJ3W2fA
NeilWillis Posted November 25, 2016 Posted November 25, 2016 No, I believe it was a modder that published the checklist. I thought the tutorial stated that you have to keep the two needles synched when advancing the throttle to 100%? So, I suspect what you are seeing in the shut down of the engine is a failure. Try advancing the throttle lever slowly, so the needles do not separate, and you should find you'll have no difficulties. I'll run the tutorial and check it isn't borked.
