[Alpiinoo]

Hello, When I use AB and switch to F2 camera, the effect of engine number 2 comes late.

Thanks!

I'm using MT.

Your throttles are probably a bit split? I know the Warthog in particular has a bit of split to it when it “FEELS” matched in your hand. IRL except for full FADEC throttle by wire, multi-engine throttles are never perfectly matched. Engines and linkages just have variation. 
 

Edit: also watch the end credits of TopGun. The real tomcat does it too.

No dude, its a bug, it happens everytime that you change for F2 view from internal view with no throttle changes, its easily reproduced.

He is not talking about the difference to rev the engines, its something with the animation.

Can confirm, I have the same issue here. It happens every time you go to F2 view. I don't have any mods or a split throttle.

[RustBelt]

Ohh without going INTO afterburner it just does that when you change views and already ARE in afterburner.

Yes it's purely visual. In the F-14A moving my throttle all the way up parks both engines in zone 5 (you can check in-cockpit), but the reheat visual effect in external view (not just in F2) turns on and off on the right engine.

clarification

[Velik]

Same there. For both A and B versions. Right engine blinks after view mode changed.

Yup - same here.  Has Heatblur acknowledged this bug???

No response yet.

Noticed this as well during latest flight tests when going in external view

Hey! Thank you for the reports. Tracked internally for the team to look into!

I see this bug is still present in 2.9.8 unfortunately, will this hopefully get fixed anytime soon?

Confirm this bug on 2.9.8 (F-4, F-14A/B).

When taking off from the ground, there is a heavy slip phenomenon from side to side. (none loadouts)
when taking off, must be turn off the afterburner

[-Relax-]

Are you sure this only happening if going F2?
When going from F10->F2 no bug.
When going from F10-> F1->F2 is bug.
Also you can check Fuel Flow if going from F10->F1 and not going F2.

So i think it is problem with F1 or i am missing something!?

@BIGNEWYyou can merge or delete the other thread i made. And whats the status?
