dresoccer4 Posted June 15, 2024 Posted June 15, 2024 I was playing an intercept mission so I was full AB up to FL320 with a full load of missiles. I could only get up to about mach 1.3 with this configuration. I approached my targets, and as soon as I disengaged the AB the whole plane started to shake violently while straight and level. Then the warning lights call came on and the engine shut down. Is it supposed to behave this way? Why would shutting off the AB cause the engine to explode? How should you slow down then, using air brakes? Acer Predator Triton 700 || i7-7700HQ || 512GB SSD || 32GB RAM || GTX1080 Max-Q || FFB II and Thrustmaster TWCS Throttle || All DCS Modules

gulredrel Posted June 15, 2024 Posted June 15, 2024 Check that the engine inlet cone system is in automatic mode (center panel). Being in overspeed mode and faster M1.4 you can go out of AB, but don't decrease throttle below military. Once speed get's below M1.4, the overspeed mode will end and you can than throttle further back out of MIL. 4 1

I didn't know about this amazing performance feature, what a cool cold war-era issue to have to look out for in flight 4 Acer Predator Triton 700 || i7-7700HQ || 512GB SSD || 32GB RAM || GTX1080 Max-Q || FFB II and Thrustmaster TWCS Throttle || All DCS Modules
