gulredrel Posted January 25, 2023 Posted January 25, 2023 Hello, I installed the Mossie as trial period yesterday and did only one flight. Have only mapped real relevant axis and keybinds. Is there a way to silence the gear warning sound? Throttling back below +7 boost for endurance or slowing down for landing it can be quite annoying. Or is it supposed to operate that high? Haven't found something in the search. Thanks Jens

razo+r Posted January 25, 2023 Posted January 25, 2023 There is no silencer, however, having the horn blowing at +7 seems questionable but the original topic on that has been forgotten, as usual currently. 1 1

Thanks for pointing me there. Yes, indeed. Can't imagine that it was supposed to be that way. My search was for "gear waring horn" and so on. Never thought about looking for undercarriage So no native speaker here.
Skewgear Posted January 25, 2023 Posted January 25, 2023 Bring the revs back for cruise. You'll find that improves the situation as lower revs alters the achievable boost for a given throttle setting. The aircraft wasn't designed to be flown at 3000rpm all the rime. 1 DCS WWII player.

You wouldn’t fly any aircraft at 3000 RPM. The gear warning does kick in too high. 2
Andurula Posted August 24, 2024 Posted August 24, 2024 Actual crew accounts that I am reading state that a typical cruise speed was 240mph because it made the navigator's job easy ( an even 4 miles per minute) and was a good economical cruise speed at low level. This of course is below the threshold for the gear warning horn. The accounts never say anything about the gear warning horn going off constantly so I think I can add my name to the list of people that would like to see this fixed. It is clearly off. It would be nice to simulate how the Mossie was actually flown without being driven mental by that gawdawful sound. 1
VampireNZ Posted July 5 Posted July 5 Latest Changelog.... DCS: Mosquito FB VI by Eaglе Dynamics Fixed. Undercarriage warning horn sound in improper conditions Gear warning buzzer still sounding at +7 lbs of Boost??? Why say it is fixed? Vampire
Art-J Posted July 5 Posted July 5 Because in previous build it was sounding all the time unless you pulled throttles back to idle. That got fixed. 1 i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.

Ah ok - yea I had uninstalled the Moquito Module due to the ridiculous fantasy power curve with warning horn sounding continously at the Max Cont power setting of +7 lbs....guess I will be deleting it again lol. Is why I don't buy new modules anymore... 10 hours ago, Prorok said: It's working in proper way now Riiiiight.. Well, my hats off then to the brave men that flew the Mosquito across Europe at Max Continous power setting of +7 Lbs boost with the gear warning horn sounding the entire time - guess it helped drown out the sound of flak explosions.... 1 Vampire
felixx75 Posted July 6 Posted July 6 +7 lbs boost is not idle... If the warning tone still sounds at +7 lbs boost, this is still wrong and should be fixed as soon as possible. No one can fly like this without going mad.

Horn is activated by throttle levers position only, so you can go below 7 without setting it off simply by decreasing RPM for better economy. Also, at medium and high alts you'll always be above that lever position anyway. Granted, that indeed doesn't help folks who want to fly across the Channel, low and at 2650 RPM. i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.

Bozon Posted July 7 Posted July 7 1 hour ago, felixx75 said: 2650 RPM That’s what I thought. Why is the horn blowing then? Makes no sense. +7 is not a low boost - it is way too much for a landing approach, and an undercarriage warning is out of place in such conditions. “Mosquitoes fly, but flies don’t Mosquito” :pilotfly: - Geoffrey de Havilland. ... well, he could have said it!

Makes no sense. +7 is not a low boost - it is way too much for a landing approach, and an undercarriage warning is out of place in such conditions. The manual says that the warning horn is triggered at a throttle position of less than 1/4. Whether this is actually implemented correctly or not is something you have to check in the simulation. But it has nothing to do with the RPM.
