Stick deflection limiter override

[ResonantCard1]

Hello, I've been reading the IRL Su-27SK manual and there it's talked about an stick deflection limiter, that'd prevent an G/AoA buildup if you pulled the stick too fast. This would be done by increasing the stick's resistance to movement. In DCS there's the Stick Deflection Limiter Override bind. Does this bind allow you to pull as fast as you want, or is it a proper G/AoA limiter override? In the manual there's no G/AoA override mentioned, but the copy I have is a translated copy so maybe something was lost in translation?

You can watch it work in cntrl enter to see the controls. Watch the stock as you move, it simulates the buildup in force by stopping your movement at a certain point then letting you slowly move it. With deflection override you can pull as fast as you want. By not letting it go past the stick deflection limiter, you can eventually get a feel for pulling max g without staring at the gauge. It works really well with force feedback

Real Su-27S: it's possible to overcome / override the AOA/G limited by applying extra force (9Kg IIRC) to the stick.

 

DCS Su-27S: It's possible to disable the AOA/G limiter by holding down the wheel brake key. Possible but not advised - under the vast majority of configurations and speeds the limiter will save you no matter what stick input you make, however with the limiter disengaged it's perfectly possible to overload and break the airframe, usually manifesting as a loss of one or both wings. Once you have an intuitive feel for how the aircraft behaves it's advantageous under certain conditions to disable the limiter to, for example, get your nose around for a gun kill or to momentarily get within launch parameters for your R-73. Outside of that, best left engaged.
