markturner1960 Posted May 19, 2020 Author Share Posted May 19, 2020 Hi Dee Jay, hope you are well...perhaps RPM would have been a better one to use.. Just trying to check my cougar throttle is properly set up - At fully back I am at 62%, in the idle detent, I am approx 80%, at the mil detent ( not in it) I am 96%, at max travel I am at 99% Do these seem right?

Etirion Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 (edited) In the instant action "Take Off" mission in caucasus I am at 65% in idle and 98% in Mil on the ground, keep in mind this will rise with airspeed. Afterburner will rise above 100% eventually but on the ground it stays with 98% for me until the airspeed builds and the fans get some air to drink.

Bonzo0181 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 I think it's more useful to use the controls indicator (RCtrl+enter) to check that. It has idle and afterburner marks. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Dee Jay, hope you are well...perhaps RPM would have been a better one to use..

At idle Fuel Flow in Pound Per Hours (PPH) should be anywhere from 700-1700. RPM is 62% to 80%. As you can see there is no specific number at idle. Above idle, real life manual only mention the limits, meaning RPM should not exceed 106%, no limit on PPH, etc. I think Bonzo0181 had the best suggestion, I use the control indicator together with sound to tell where the throttle is. To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that. Thank you for you patience. Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
