F16FLCS-SME Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Are the JFS accumulators modeled properly? If I start the JFS with START2, wait few seconds and shut it off, I believe it should deplete the JFS accumulators because RPM does not reach 10% which is the minimum for HYD B to recharge them. I am able to do this many times and the JFS always starts. How many start attempts can be done before requiring to use the hand pump? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceMonkey037 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Are the JFS accumulators modeled properly?

I am able to do this many times and the JFS always starts. How many start attempts can be done before requiring to use the hand pump? Just to correct, the brake/JFS accumulators will recharge (provided HYD B pressure is available) when the engine accelerates through 12 percent RPM, not 10. They use about 40-60 seconds to recharge. Keep in mind that the JFS uses about 17 seconds to spool down from full JFS governed rpm, meaning that you should wait a bit before re-engaging the JFS. The brake/JFS accumulators should be mostly depleted after a start attempt, meaning that you're unable to perform multiple JFS starts without recharging the brake/JFS accumulators. If DCS's JFS logic strays with what I mentioned i recommend you to post a bug report on it. Have a safe flight! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F16FLCS-SME Posted November 27, 2020 Author Share Posted November 27, 2020 As a reference to this post: https://forums.eagle.ru/forum/english/digital-combat-simulator/dcs-f-16c-viper/7154831-jfs-accumulators Cold and dark 1. Start the JFS to START 2. 2. Wait few seconds. 3. Before RPM reaches 10%, shut down the JFS. 4. Wait for RPM to reach zero and no JFS sound. Repeat several times. It seems JFS accumulators do not deplete after several unsuccessful start attemps. According to -1: During a ground engine start, the brake/JFS accumulators begin to recharge after the engine accelerates through 12 percent rpm.

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted July 6, 2022 ED Team Share Posted July 6, 2022 Fixed, for future testing wait about 30sec after JFS doors closed to ensure that JFS has stopped. thank you Forum rules - DCS Crashing?
