How to throttle up in the ASG29Es?

Post by nortoise » Mon Jul 13, 2020 10:57 pm

How does one increase the engine power in the ASG29? I have tried the throttle up and down (Works fine in the EB29) but it doesn't do anything in the ASG29, and when I have tried it it seems to be on the lowest setting and simply crawls along the runway...

If anyone knows the keybind that would be great :)

I thought the "s" was for sustainer, not self launching

S is for startermotor. E is for engine.

The ASG29 is only available as a pure glider and with a sustainer engine. It is not certified for self launching. The engine does not have a throttle and runs at full power automatically.

However the AS-G 29 will take off with the sustainer. It just needs a long runway and a good amount of headwind :mrgreen:
