I've now flown the OBORA ONE departure 10+ times using the "new" 750 ITT setting after accelerating to max to achieve 200. I can not achieve FL160 before I reach OBORA. At best, I've gotten 15800, and I suspect it shouldn't be that close. (i.e. I should easily be able to achieve 160 or higher before OBORA.
I suspect, though I have no way of really knowing, that the DCS A-10C is under powered versus the real thing. Regardless, I think the power settings for Instrument Trail Departure need to be re-evaluated. Of course, feel free to check for yourself. Zero experienced the same today.
My configuration: Training Munitions, including 1 winder, 6 BDU33s, and 1AGM 65K and G.
I'm using the IQT02 eval mission that was used for our checkrides.
