Schizwiz Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 Ok thanks,Nick,that is also what I thought,reading the NATOP manual. Always good to hear facts from airmen. Cheers. To see your opponent for who he or she is,is to put your blade in front of their deepest secrets and make them come up front,outward with a defeat or a win.
HawkeyeHHDF Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 Yeah, that is an error that escaped editing. One of our SMEs told us that heading out with AICS malfunctions was a big no no, though they would sometimes cheat on cross countries so they wouldn't get stranded. They called it "Stow and go". After take-off they would report the ramp issue and continue to their destination. But otherwise, stow was only for in-flight malfunctions and they were left in auto for cat launches (though there were rare ramp malfunctions on cat shots that resulted in stalls). -Nick AICS failures were quite common usually more computer issues than the actuators, the AICS computers were junk and we would constantly change them, they never really upgraded those computers unlike the SCADC or pitch, roll, and yaw computers.

Indeed, it was generally a problem with OBC, not the ramps themselves. -Nick
HawkeyeHHDF Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 Indeed, it was generally a problem with OBC, not the ramps themselves. -Nick Correct and most of the time it would reset with cycling the associated ramp circuit breaker, if that didn't do it , then time to change the programmer, couldn't tell you how many of those things I had to change over the years lol Hawkeye VF-213 CO VCVW-11 http://www.vcvw-11.com Heatblur F-14 SME
VampireNZ Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 (edited) Good info - cheers. Will be nice to have a bit more depth in systems modelling and failures to monitor during flight. Interesting that a low oil pressure and oil hot will only result in a possible seizure. Our sequence of events in all our sim rides was an OIL PRESS light followed by an OIL HOT light followed by an ENGINE FIRE if you didn't sort it out in time....or if your pilot spent the whole time trying to find the OIL PRESS LOW light checklist in his QRH (which had fallen out of his book and was sitting on the sim instructors desk) while ignoring the Flight Engineers strong recommendation to shut the engine down! He was suitably debriefed that a living breathing FE sitting next to you overrides his little QRH. Edited July 22, 2018 by VampireNZ Vampire
Blitz Posted August 3, 2018 Posted August 3, 2018 Wow, so detailed modelling of the engine! But I think many of us would also like to know if Jet Wash is also modeled :P ?

MemphisBelle Posted August 10, 2018 Posted August 10, 2018 (edited) Although I´m with you in this particular question, I´d highly recommend to delete the text of the second Post you wrote on page 6...Double posts are not really helpful. According to the question...I´m checking the Heatblur subforums each day for any news since the term shortly is a timeframe I consider somethings to be happen in the very near future...and this is the problem. This very near future furthermore depends on the developers schedule...So we wont get any better estimates or news until the release announcement will finally be made. I really hope that Heatblur wont stumble on any new problems that will push the release further back. In DCS soon=months, not soon=years, presale= about 1 month. you missed a definition for shortly :)...if soon means month, so shortly means weeks, doesn´t it? And (a few) weeks already passed by :D Edited August 10, 2018 by MemphisBelle BlackSharkDen | BSD Discord | DCS Tutorial Collection

Shadow KT Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 @MemphisBale he said "soon=monthS", so shortly is probably from around couple of weeks to a month or two :lol: 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days

Reflected Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 There's been quite a bit of silence lately, maybe they're brewing something nice...haven't seen any finished textures either, maybe that's what is coming next? I sure hop we won't have to wait until Christmas for the F-14, they've got to be closer than that. Facebook Instagram YouTube Discord
