Wing Emerg Over sweep Activating at High Speed when wings in Auto plus Commanded over sweep.

[spazz212]

Hello

As of the Latest Open Beta ( DCS 2.7.16.27869) it appears that the wings can get stuck in Emergency Over sweep by both command for wing sweep Aft, and via the Automatic wing sweep setting when sufficient airspeed is obtained.

The Two Methods I have found to generate this bug are:

1: -Putting the wing Sweep into auto with the sweep lever guard closed.

   -Command Aft wing sweep

   -Wing sweeps till Emerg Over sweep

 

2: -Put Wing in auto

    -increase speed till max sweep

    -Wing gets Stuck in Emerg Over Sweep and will sometimes not come out until manually overridden via wing sweep handle (I think you have to be              going fast for a sufficient amount of time but the Multiplayer track file I found it happening in is too large to upload).

 

Attached are the Two Track files in single player showing both behaviours.

 

Cheers!

I haven't had the wings get stuck, but I have seen the EMERG indicator come up when the wings automatically sweep back to 68 degrees.

I can attest to that.

Super sweep max speed mode to reach 2.7M!  Sarcasm obviously.

Yeah I'm Not exactly sure how I managed that, I think flying at speed for sufficient time for them to stay in Emerg Sweep. But the other two are very reproducible for sure!

Iron Mike has confirmed this is a bug.  The sweep is not going into Emer and getting stuck, its just showing you that it is via the flag.  It should still be possible to move the wings with normal wing sweep operation either auto or manual assuming your not outside parameters (too high Mach)

Yup, happens to me too. I wasn’t sure I should slow down or ignore.

Yeah What I suspect it actually came out of Auto for some reason when in Emerg Oversweep

I don’t think the wings are actually going into over sweep. I looked real close and seems at least they are at 68. It looks like it’s just the oversweep flag coming up erroneously.
