@supanova:
I have 1 view on that video, which I think speaks for itself.
The video explains clearly the issue. I canât do any more than put the time and effort in to create a video showing what the issue actually is. But I feel that no one is actually listening to what Iâm saying, or, indeed, showing.
I donât have a detent, Iâm not enabling cutoff other that to demonstrate that the engine spools up without using Alt-i when I do have it enabled.
Without cutoff enabled in config I have to push the throttle forward, Alt-i, pull it back to idle and push it forward again.
Let me be absolutely clear, and, again, this is with a throttle without a detent:
Example A
- push throttle forward to 50%
- Alt-i
- back to idle
- push throttle forward to 50%
That is the only way I can increase RPM over 20%
Example B
- I donât have to do a thing with throttle or Alt-i - RPM increases past 20% all by itself
I was told thatâs incorrect, but if you watch the video, thatâs exactly what happens.
I wanted to understand what exactly is happening. That was the purpose of opening this thread. I like to understand things. However I will just document it as I have experienced it, which is not optimal.
Just a guessâŠ
Example A, #3, if not already done so, open Windows Joy Properties and confirm that the throttle axis graphic is not around 50% when the throttle lever is full aft. If not, fix issue then try again.
Example B: as you have discovered, Alt I is not needed if Idle Detent is enabled in Config. However, âall by itselfâ (no throttle input) is definitely incorrect. If throttle not properly calibrated, engine may autostart with no additional input.
