Going over binding the controls and what controls you'll be using is an absolutely key segment most tutorials are missing.

Any idea why I can't see the "SP" button after pressing "CZ"? Did DCS change something since your excellent video came out?

Really good tutorial, thanks for the effort. Would you say the TMS switch or DMS switch is more important? Just so I know which to bind to an easy to reach switch and the other to a slightly less convenient one.

@keithbriscoe99

TMS for sure - it is what you're using to direct all the different sensors. You use all 4 directions for both A-G and A-A. DMS primarily selects which screen you want to interact with and changes screens. There's more to DMS but answering your question... clearly make TMS the most accessible if you have to choose. Assume you are using T16000M stick! When I had that, the thumb on stick was TMS. I assigned DMS to one of the throttle thumb hats.

Hello, you made a great job with this tutorial but i have some trouble to do some of the things explained here in my F16. I can't make multiple target as you show it to us. I aim at the target, push DMS right then STP button, do the same for second and third target. The problem is, when i do the same on the second target, the TGP don't came back to the first target, it goes on the ground, some meters away from second target. In your video, you say "aim at it, edit, then push DMS right and STP button" (if i hear correctly). How do you "edit"? I can't see where you explain that in the vid. Also, the button "STP" appear only in NAV mode, it does not work in AG mode. Thank you.

Hi very helpful tutorial. I have a question, what happens when I press TMS down only once (twice will cz)? I notice that the crosshairs become "bigger" but idk what that means. Thanks

@its-kemo

Ай бұрын

Beginner myself I am studying F-16C on daily basis so do not take it for granted, but if I am not mistaken TMS Down once should “Reject the Target”, meaning if you TMS Up to select one TMS Down (once) deselects it.

Has something changed since this video? If I click 'CZ' to reset the view it only flashes and nothing changes. I'm sat on the ground trying to work this out and its pointed of somewhere and I can't seem to bring it back. I click CZ hoping to reset but it won't. I don't get the SP option back either.

Do they removed multi select? STP is now TGT and no OA1/OA2

I don’t have a good joystick that has all the buttons on it, but great tutorial anyways 😊

When I am in AG mode I cannot slew the pod at all. STP and CZ do not show on my screen either.

So i can’t get my tgp to spi to a target with the offset aimpoints like u say select the target tms right press the button for the next oa repeat till ive used all 3 then when i cycle them their all over the place

Mambo, what's the correct lasing time to start lasing with the GBU-24? GBU 12 and 10s are 8-15 sec until impact via USAF manuals. I ask bc when u Lase early the trajectory changes with GBU and could cause issues...

@MamboDCS

Жыл бұрын

I don't have the exact time, but I know for fact that it's more than the GBU-10 and 12. And I've heard real pilots mention that it's a longer time. But the exact number might be classified, I'm not sure. To play it safe, I recommend doing so shortly after dropping the bomb. The GBU-24 is a lot smarter than the Paveway IIs, so that probably helps it.

How do I know the difference between sp-sensor point and sp-snow plow? In fact, it’s a bit confusing. It starts with saying CZ is centre zero and takes you to bore sight/straight ahead. Then it says so is sensor point, which is whatever sensor is being used, usually waypoint. Then it says CZ takes you to the waypoint selected. Then it says when you press CZ a new button sp (aka sensor point, which was already there) appears called snow plow. So now sensor point is snow plow. So I’m confused if sp is sensor point or snow plow. I’m sure the designers of the f-16 would not confuse the pilot by having a control that is on the same location and with the same identifier. In fact, this is a primary handling requirement in aviation.

Sometimes do not have SP and CZ available. Can't figure it out.

STP button (MFD) is present only in NAV mode, but in A/G there is TGT - does it have same functio? Strange, but I cannot set any offset poits even doing same as you do. After STP is depressed OA1 appears but when I pres on it - crosshair moves not to set target before but to waypoint. Mess... no idea what is happening.

@MamboDCS

Жыл бұрын

Yes, when in A-G it says TGT. My bad for skipping on that in the video. But it does have the same function. Offset Aimpoints were bugged up until the latest open beta update, so make sure you've updated to it. If you have, after setting an OA, it'll jump back to your currently selected steerpoint and you'll need to set another offset if you'd like. This is again showcased in my JDAM video which you can watch here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/pWdpu9qyhMu0l5c.html

@@MamboDCS firts of all Thank you for tutorials! They are the best I`ve ever seen among other youtube videos. Yesterday updated DCS. Now is possible to set TGT (ok) and OA2 (ok) but not OA1 - it always moves someshere else instead of my set point. Also there are no triangles on ILS. Again doing everything you did on video. Interesting fact - TGT and OA can be set even without pressind TMS right. Because when you slew crosshair it automaticaly goes from Inertial to Area track.

That's true, TMS right isn't always necessary, but I mentioned it just to make sure :) I used OA1 and OA2 a couple days ago and it worked fine so I'm not sure why it isn't working for you :( Maybe try a different mission and see if it works there? Again, maybe my JDAMs video can further help 😅 Thank you for the kind words and support, I really appreciate it!

It works basically the same way. STP shows when your in NAV mode and TGT when you're in A-G mode. You can treat it exactly the same way :) Sorry for not being 100% clear about this!

Yo i like the function of the offset aimpoints but i think this doesnt work anymore. If ur in AG mode STP will be TGT and in NAV mode it doesnt react at all. U just can see how the cross in TGP is getting bigger. Would be cool to have a resolution for that, maybe im using the TGP wrong.

First check that your controls setup is done correctly as shown in the video. Also make sure you've SOI'ed the screen the TGP is on and then try moving it around.
