  1. The HSD is not a sensor and it would not be logical to use it for marking purposes, hence why its not in the F-16 IRL. My suggestion is using the compass needle on the TGP screen to slew the pod in the right direction, and make a educated guess on the distance and look for any heat signature. Another option is using the OA1/2 which allows you to input an OA from a steerpoint with a specific heading and range.
  2. Will test, but u sure the SA-11 isnt using its camera?
  3. @BIGNEWY DM sent with proof! Lets hope this works.
  4. Can you confirm if the CDE circle is a part of the 4.2+?
  5. If i remember correctly, IRL uses something like 25lb pressure for full defliction stick back and 15lb roll (33% less to the right)
  6. 1. Entered ACM mode and TMS UP > radar lock 2. TMS DOWN turns radar off 3. Tries TMS UP again to reactivate radar, but it doesnt work untill i press TMS DOWN/RIGHT and then TMS UP F-16 ACM BUG.trk
  7. +1 on this. You need to practicaly fight the plane to hold the flare, and if you overcorrect even slightly you tailstrike...
  8. Hey, try DMS switch DOWN LONG press
  9. @Lord VaderCan you confirm if this going to be fixed?
  10. Referencing your F-16C manual. When i set the SEC switch to SEC and snap the throttle to MIL, the engine is unable to rise above 70% RPM before the FTIT skyrockets to almost 1000. Sometimes there is also a loud "bang" to be heard after i pull the throttle back because the engine is malfunctioning. It seems though if i slowly rise the RPM to 70% and then snap to MIL, it works well. Attached a short track on caucasus showing the issue. Merry Christmas! F-16 SEC TEST.trk
  11. The manual pitch override also works great for throwing a solid curveball at your agressor when in defensive BFM
  12. Thank you very much for investigating! I am happy with the outcome.
  13. I dont think finding a new emitter without any prior intelligence on the go with TDOA should have anything to do with DTC, which my understanding is used in startup for pre planned threats only. 1. You and your flight is out on a mission and you spot an emitter with your HTS pod 2. As master in the flight you engage TDOA and signal your flight to start triangulating the emitter 3. Once you reach PGM1 you send the data to your flight with IFF IN long press 4. Now your flight members all have a steerpoint set exactly on the emitter aswell as getting a threat ring on their HSD giving them good SA on where the threat is 5. You as FL and master now have no steerpoint for the threat you have just triangulated, and you dont get any of that great SA on the threat position on the HSD that your wingmen enjoys. Is this truly the way it should be? Now i would rather that none of the flight members get the threat info then everyone but one...
  14. When using TDOA and finding a SAM, all other flight members get a threat ring on HSD but it does not happen for #1. I hope this is not intended, does not make any sense
  15. Hey, for marking with TGP you need to be in point track. After entering point track, press TMS UP SHORT agin to mark the location.
  16. The FLCS in the F-16 only auto trims in pitch, but does not in roll.
  17. I recently noticed in my screesnhot folder i had a bunch of cool F-15E screenshots of the MFDs at different moments. For the way i play DCS with the F-16, this would be perfect. I play in a group that has a very big emphasis on intelligence, were a tool like this is perfect to take a screenshot of lets say the TGP looking at a mechanized infantry battalion, with the grid on the TGP screen, would be great for debriefeing and retrieving intelligence. I can also argue that it is realistic. Thanks!
  18. I think being able to click the throttle to the cutoff/engine start positions instead of having to do the Rshift+home thing. Thanks!

  19. It could be that the Axis on the cursor has not been calibrated properly. I suggest you go in the software belonging to the throttle and calibrate it there. If that does not help i suggest you put a deadzone on the the axis in DCS.
  20. If its presets you are thinking of, you can select them by say if you want preset #5 on UHF you press COM 1 then press 5 and enter where you would put your frequency. You can also change it straight from the CNCI page if you dobber up/down to the V/UHF and press rocker switch up/down
  21. My technique was always to aim at the ground that the vehicle is sitting on. Works for me
  22. Check out «OpenKneeboard» for the last part. Its great!
  23. No its probably a later update to the F-16 then the 2007 version we have
