[SOLVED] mission 1 - zoom climb maneuver issue

[Tucano Branco]

Hi there, I tried two times mission 1 and Paco becomes "unresponsive"  after executing the "zoom climb" maneuver.

Could it be due to the fact that I have let too much time elapse between Paco's explanation and the start of the maneuver?

Has anyone had the same issue?

Thanks for any feedback

Best

No sorry, I had no issues doing this? Did you follow the roll out at the end and correct speed? Maybe it thinks you haven't completed it for some reason?

[Tucano Branco]

Well I think I did it right... 450Kn at 200, pull 4G and keep nose within the 90 degree pitch, then pull 15 units when speed bleeds down to 200Kn... Am I missing anything?

[Indianajon]

No that sounds it. Did you do end on your back and then roll out bit?

It's a weird one? I had absolutely no issues with it? hopefully someone will be able to help on here for you.

Yes I did roll out in the end, speed is around 130/150  when I roll out, perhaps too low... but I think I should get a go/no go after that in any case.

Thanks for your feeback @Indianajon ... I will keep trying but  since it takes me 1.5hr everytime  to get there, feeling a bit tired in the end

It keeps happening... after 5 times nothing changes, I have no clue on what I am doing wrong!

For all prior maneuvers I get a "nicely done" from Paco... then he goes silent

@Reflected any clue?

When you roll out in a level flight that’s Paco’s cue that you finished it. Wings level, right side up, not climbing or descending.

Thanks for the response @Reflected, that is what I do every time... roll up right and levelled, but nothing happens 

I will give it a go tonight (Irish time  ). Superb job with the concept... hope I will be able to enjoy the rest of the campaign at some point in time  

Cheers

It's considered started when you pitch up at least 70 degrees (90 is briefed so there is a lot of leeway), and then finished when you are flying level:

@Reflected it worked this time I heard Paco to call the get ready to zoom! My fault 100%, thanks for the feedbacks!

Yeah maybe you started to zoom before setting up at the required speed/ alt as Paco and the on-screen message said.
