mytai01 Posted March 27, 2024 Posted March 27, 2024 Interesting how fast the wings sweep in the video. Is this only because it's a D model? 2 MS Win7 Pro x64, Intel i7-6700K 4.0Ghz, Corsair RAM 16Gb,EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 FTW GAMING ACX 3.0, w/ Adjustable RGB LED Graphics Card 08G-P4-6286-KR, Creative Labs SB X-FI Titanium Fatal1ty Champ PCIe Sound Card, Corsair Neutron XTI 1TB SSD, TM Warthog Throttle & Stick, TM TPR Pedels, Oculus Rift VR Headset CV1, Klipsch Promedia 4.1 Speakers...
Nealius Posted March 27, 2024 Posted March 27, 2024 Roughly 4.6 seconds to 68. In DCS, selecting BOMB then immediately AFT takes almost 8 seconds. Unsweep in the video also approximately 8 seconds, in DCS on the carrier break selecting AUTO takes 10 seconds. Unless there's something special to the D or DFCS Tomcats, our DCS version has some timing issues on sweep/unsweep.
draconus Posted March 27, 2024 Posted March 27, 2024 B NATOPS mentions wing sweep rate as approximately 15° per second if not restrained by G or hydraulics. Win10 i7-10700KF 32GB RTX4070S Quest 3 T16000M VPC CDT-VMAX TFRP FC3 F-14A/B F-15E CA SC NTTR PG Syria
FR4GGL3 Posted March 28, 2024 Posted March 28, 2024 Hmmm. Did I hear "Wings are in manual" a few moments before he swept the Wings back? Could it be that he use the Emergency Wing Sweep Lever instead of the knob on the Thrustlever? Could that be any faster via Emergency Wing Sweep Lever? 14700K | MSI Z690 Carbon | Gigabyte 4090 Gaming OC | 64GB DDR5 6000 G.Skill Ripjaws S5 | Asus Essence STX 2 on a Violectric V90 Headphone amp and Fostex TH600 Headphones | LG 42 C227LA & Samsung C32HG70 | TrackIR 5 | Moza AB9 and Virpil Constellation Alpha Grip | Thrustmaster Warthog Throttle | VKB T-Rudder Pedals MK IV I only fool around the F-14 - and still having a hard time on it as there is so much to learn and so little time and talent. But I love it.
Nealius Posted March 28, 2024 Posted March 28, 2024 (edited) Knob on the throttle is also manual, and the E-sweep lever moves with it. If my math is right then 15deg/sec going from 20 to 68 should take 3.2 seconds. When straight and level on CASE I commence it takes 8 seconds. I wonder what makes it so slow in DCS.

In auto mode, the sweep is determined based on the airspeed and other factors. It's not necessarily changing position at the maximum rate. The only way to get maximum rate is by using the manual mode one g.
