outbaxx Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 I think it would depend on the airspeed and alpha you had when you engaged the alt hold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pocket Sized Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 So I took off from Tonopah, heavy at 41,000lbs, climbed to 10,000ft, and set the autopilot to hold altitude - speed kept slowly decreasing, and I found I needed to engage the burner to maintain level flight. Am I doing something wrong? Or is that normal? Turn on manual fuel regulation. (Under the canopy edge, right side) Automatic fuel control throttles the engine down excessively at high altitude. DCS modules are built up to a spec, not down to a schedule. In order to utilize a system to your advantage, you must know how it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
