Tornado Throttle

[RGulliver]

Peter,

Firstly thanks for FSUIPC.

I am currentle building a homebuild cockpit of the Panavia Tornado GR4 using IOCARDS/FSUIPC and I was wondering if you could introduce throttle setup for fighter/bomber aircraft

The throttle for the Tornado is as follows

HP Shut - I intend to use a microswitch to close the fuel valve

Idle (N1=37% rpm N2=60%)

Max Dry N1 -100% rpm N2=97%

Max Reaheat (N1=106%rpm N2=104%rpm)

Combat (N1=109% rpm N2 = 107% rpm)

Reverse thust is selected by rocking the throttles to the left. I intend to use a microswitch to select this.

Please see attached Drawing of the throttle layout

Kind regards

What are you asking for here? What do you mean by "throttle setup"? The facilities in FSUIPC are not aircraft specific, but general -- you can use them as you wish.

At the moment FSUIPC allows to set idle and max throttle.

Would it be possible to have the facility to set Idle, max dry, max reheat

Kind regards

Calibration in FSUIPC allows setting any throttle position, not simply idle and max. Please simply calibrate for the maximum range you need, in any cirumstance, then have some notches or marks for intermediate positions.

You don't really need FSUIPC just for this in any case.
