When designating target form HARM PB mode, designating O/S from WPT does'nt move aimin cue line to O/S point, it stays with original WPT. It work correctly with JDAMs. Hornet HARM OS.trk

@Frederf it's even more confusing - when you switch the battery on, you have the utility light. And when you start first engine and generator kicks in it again switches of utility light and you have only flashlight avaible. @BIGNEWY how on earth it can be correct when simple switchng a switch puts a flashlight into my hand or grabs it off my hand and puts utility light in? This didn't happen even in "Hot shots!" movie. And this is not the best option if I can't change brightness or color of the light during flight. If you can't make two light mechanics just let us have the one with color and brightness change.

I don't think there is a distance signal degradation, I used DL13 even on 150 nm.

WHat do you mean by "awful" camera image? Can you show a screenshot, or short film? It's far from what TGP can offer, it's probably worse than that in Mavs. It is what it is. SLAM missiles are not intended to attack single vehicles, it's more HV structures weapon - for attacking ships, oil platforms, airfields or factories. You can guide it on vehicles but it's nearly impossible to identify vehicle on SLAM's camera. Game-wise if you can't ID targets on F10 map, you won't be able to ID specific vehicle.

I remember discussion about cocpilt flashlight and someone said it works even without battery, so auto switching between flashlights dependeing on battery state is a non sense.

But just switching DL13 page to left DDI makes it visible.

When kneeboard is open and you hit F10, a KB frame is still visible and clickable.

DL13 page on right DDI lacks "A ANT" and "WPN" options on left side of the screen Hornet DL13.trk

Flashlight color and brightness can be changed only while on battery. Before turning on battery and after engine start I can use only white, full power light. Hornet flashlight.trk

Off topic, but when INS aligment is done, switch to IFA, not NAV. Use NAV only on missions w/o GPS avaible.

And remember that Kneeboards from that folder are not only you're viewing. You will have (AFAIR in that order) Mission KBs, Plane KBs, Map KBs.

To put a TM in cut-off position you have to rise the handle and there is a button in the end of movemnt, which is binded to engine on/off, so potentiometer value shouldn't play a role.

Thank you for the answers.

I'm flying Hornet quite a bit, but I noticed that very first time. What doeas mean an A under a altitude indicator? And BTW what does mean AGR? I know it's Air-Ground Radar, but what does it indicate?

Hi, I started using off set function in HSI, but when I enter O/S to the WPT selecting WPDSG slews TGP to the WPT itself, not O/S. How can I slew TGP to O/S point?

It's not only SLAM-ER, but other munition also. Yesterday my friend was observing my attack with The Hog. Maverics were synced ok, but laser guided APKWS for him were hitting middle of the field, when for me there were destroying targets.

Sounds like you're not setting throttle to idle, but to cut-off position.

Next time with these kind of bugs it would be better to record film with AZ/EL on left DDI, it much better shows what radar antenna does.

@BIGNEWY 1. Why do we have TOO1 and TOO2 if undasignate clears progamming? It makes no sense. 2. We can't designate target in PP via WPTs, we have to enter them manually. IRL PP is populated via data cartridege, so why did you remove the only way to quickly prepare preplaned ripple attack?

Thanks, ech, I forget about that switch way too often

@Mo410 great info, thanks. Could you explain one more thing that is bugging me with a Hornet's laser - does it really works that way yhat after bomb drop with auto lase the LTD/R switches off and pilot has to manually switch it on with every bomb?

That's what I found in one of pdfs.

IR COOL is not implemented.

Did you properly hand off taget to the missile?
