MiG29 throttle curve ?

[Stealth29U.K]

Hi, sorry if this has already been covered,

The throttle on the updated MiG29 seems to be very hard to control accurately, small movements seem to cause cause a big jump in the RPM,like its bunched in 1 area for the most part, just wondered if anyone has managed to find/make a usable curve for the throttle?,I can see formation flying could be a problem as it is, as its very difficult to make precise thrust adjustments

Thanks in advance

Here you go, it’s probably that way to make it easier to find all three AB stages with a warthog throttle

Hi,thanks for the reply, I got a MS FFB2 here, had a look at the thread but couldn't see anything about the throttle, seems OP had deleted something about it though,

Hi,

 

 

I've a TM Cougar, that has two detents on its range, one for idle and another for AB, at about 1/4 and 2/3 of its travel, like this:

 

 

 

 

So, I made a curve to match that as much as possible, so that the rpm gauge goes just over 80% when I come out of the Idle detent, and the AB lights when I'm at the AB detent ... the curve turned out like this:

 

 

 

 

I've tested it for a few days now and it works well with my Hotas, hopefully the same approach can be used with yours too.

 

 

Best regards

:thumbup: Many thanks for the advice, Il have a play around with the settings later,mind you now Ive just seen the warthog dual throttles, cant imagine what Id use all the buttons and switches for(assuming that they are all programmable) on it as I only go on the Aerobatics Online server but it sure looks like a nice piece of kit,

Thanks again

I fly DCS mostly on VR, so I do try to use the keyboard as little as possible, puting the most used functions on the Hotas.

 

Even if you only do aerobatics, you should at the very least have the airbrake, flaps & landing gear mapped on the Hotas, and also the communication PTTs to talk with the members of the flight.

Id have a button for the smoke too,means I can play "Red Arrows" style then (lol in a MiG)

 

thx again for the advice

bit of an update ,now I've worked out how to do it I had to drastically alter the throttle curve to a user profile, just about got it dialled in how I like it now though and a bit of tweaking X and Y curves and the rudder curve and its getting there now , so def needs a bit of tweaking but I just managed 2 text book landings in a row and a loop right after lift off:thumbup:

Thanks for that curve, Rudel - I tried doing the same but nearly strangled the cat in frustration.
