Yak1 69 what are the 3 red levers in the cockpit?

One on the left side next to the magnetos, and 2 on the right side next to the Landing gear lights.

I actually have no idea. They have no function in the sim (yet). They all have the same plaque fixed above them, so someone with knowledge of Russian might give us more of a clue.

 

If I were to take a wild guess, I'd say it's either safeties for each of the 3 guns or emergency cut-offs for the fuel tanks.

Something to do with the Fw-190 probably...  :happy:

Those are the handles that "raise the bar" on the Fw 190 FM?

They are re-cocking handles for the 2 MG's and the cannon in case of a misfire etc.

Sure about that?

 

I thought that was the two lager handles higher up on the Dashboard?

It is pneumo re-cocking handles. Each Yak-1 gun has two cocking handle - mechanical and pneumatic. In BOS, while you on the ground and engine not working, if you reload guns, you use mechanical handle. After engine start - you use pneumo handle.

Perfect.

Thanks for clearing that up.

Not yet, maybe if misfires get implemented.

If memory serves... reload works (you'll see shell casings ejected from the ports) to unjam guns. Its just that the guns don't jam yet. They do overheat so we're halfway there :)

Maybe we'll get it one day. Rise of Flight has this feature.
