Engine RPM Increase/Decrease

[Surrexen]

Can we have the option to bind this to an axis like we can with every other warbird? It seems to be missing for this one.

I don't think the real one has an axis. It has a rocker switch to increase/decrease on the throttle in the event the automatic wizardry fails.

You can't do that, in Anton it is 2 buttons under rocked on  the throttle.

Are you sure, Bf-109 and FW190 D9 don't have rpm axis as well, it goes even further, Dora doesn't have separate engine rpm control at all

In the 109 I can adjust the engine RPM using an axis. But yes I don't think the Dora will let you adjust it manually at all.

That is weird for me to have axis for this, since this is just a switch. But i don't exactly imagine how it works with axis, so when you out of center position rpm start changing, since this system don't act like in allied planes where rpm lever position changes set rpm for the engine. In case of Anton i use manual pitch control extremely rare. In case 109 it is for take off and landing but i use simple button for this much easier imho.

There is indeed an axis command "Engine RPM Setting". I tried it out of curiosity and it's not an absolute position-type axis. You have to move the slder very far from its center position before the "clock" pointer starts moving up- or downwards. It acts practically like a rocker switch. I find it useless and I would never waste one of my few axis controls for this command.

@LeCuvier I have same thoughts about it.
