iKyrThraad993i Posted July 17, 2018 Posted July 17, 2018 While using the G-Limit Override Paddle switch I get a autopilot caution on my Left DDI. Is this normal and how do I clear it? Can't seem to clear it when I hit master caution.
Rudel_chw Posted July 17, 2018 Posted July 17, 2018 It`s normal .. the Natops manual says: "The g limiter may be overridden by momentarily pressing the paddle switch with the control stick near full aft. Command limit g is then increased by 33%. A G-LIM OVRD caution is displayed and the MASTER CAUTION light and tone come on. A code is stored in the nose wheelwell DDI when the g limiter is overridden. Override is disengaged when the control stick is returned to near neutral." Its just a caution and you probably cant clear it since its of interest to the maintenance crew ... they have to know if the aircraft has been overstressed For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB
iKyrThraad993i Posted July 17, 2018 Author Posted July 17, 2018 Wait the "Autopilot" on the DDI is normal to have there when using the paddle switch? NVM I see that u have to press the paddle switch when full aft to get the g limiter off I do it before I even pull
Donut Posted July 17, 2018 Posted July 17, 2018 I believe he is saying that an autopilot caution (not g-lim ovrd) appears on the left DDI when using the paddle switch. I have noticed this caution as well but cannot say for sure what triggers it. I have noticed it appear though when I inadvertently press the paddle switch instead of the undesignate/NWS button while clearing a radar lock. Once it appears, I cannot get rid of it either. i5 7600K @4.8GHz | 1080 Ti | 32GB 3200MHz | SSD | DCS SETTINGS | "COCKPIT"
AMEDooley Posted July 18, 2018 Posted July 18, 2018 The paddle switch will also disengage the autopilot. That’s why the caution comes up. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

I don't think it's a bug. The same switch will do 2 things disengage the autopilot and g-limit override which makes sense. You can't pull more g's with the autopilot engaged.
