pepevill Posted May 24 Posted May 24 Whats is the time is a limited amount of fuel provided for negative G or inverted flight? It is modeleted in the flight simulator?
AndyJWest Posted May 24 Posted May 24 (edited) The official documentation (can't link here, per forum rules) says that more than 10s of negative G is prohibited. This limit need not necessarily be fuel related, since engine lubrication etc may also be a factor. Not sure whether any specific failure is modelled, but I suspect not. Edited May 24 by AndyJWest
Solution AndyJWest Posted May 24 Solution Posted May 24 I checked: DCS does model the effect of negative G on the fuel system. Sustained negative G leads to the left and right forward tanks draining, leading to 'low fuel' and/or 'engine' warnings. This takes considerably longer than the 10s prohibition (which again may not necessarily be fuel related), though I didn't actually time it.
