BSR-SARGE Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 Has anyone,after being hit by a Samm, lost throttle control? Well, I did. Had a radar spike in target area then a quick spike and launch from another Samm, was hit and lost ECM and Hydrolics. Made it back to airfield, but, no flaps, airbrakes, and couldn't decrease rpm of engines. Tried to bleed airspeed by making banking turns and crabbing, but to no avail. Should have just cut engines and glided it in, but that was an after thought. 3Sqn_SARGE

Disso Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 If he had no hydrolics would autothrottle have worked? SU-30MKI F/A-18F ...Beauty, grace, lethality.
S77th-konkussion Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 Can't say I remember ever losing total throttle control. Engines, yes- but not throttle. [sIGPIC]http://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=43337&d=1287169113[/sIGPIC]
Disso Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 Out of curiosity, what power setting were your engines stuck at? SU-30MKI F/A-18F ...Beauty, grace, lethality.
BSR-SARGE Posted March 30, 2007 Author Posted March 30, 2007 It was set at 95 0/0, and maybe I did hit " J " by mistake. Thanks for the quick response. 3Sqn_SARGE
Aeroscout Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 Ya, that sounds right. when i'm hit like that, i never lose throtle control. DCS Wishlist: 1) FIX THE DAMN RIVERS!!! 2) Spherical or cylindrical panorama view projection. 3) Enhanced input options (action upon button release, etc). 4) Aircraft flight parameter dump upon exit (stick posn, attitude, rates, accel, control volume, control-surface positions, SAS bias, etc). 5) ADS-33 maneuver courses as static objects. 6) Exposed API or exports of trim position and stick force for custom controllers. 7) Select auto multiple audio devices
BiggestPig Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 You loose your throttle control only when you loose your engine(s). So stuck in 95% isn't an option. My guess is autothrottle or a hard-/software error.

Aeroscout Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 I agree, it's probobly just auto throtle that's on.

dodger42 Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 Are you using a cougar? I had a few occasions where I had to reflash the config to the cougar mid game. Not good when you're in a scrap. . . . Lockon Advanced Realism with Touch-Buddy
