From the documentation I've read, the behavior is different between Expand and Freeze (FZ) modes. If Expand is used: - The expanded region fills the display, centered around the cursor. - HSD itself does not freeze, and the cursor is limited to the expanded region (the region itself cannot be slewed). For Freeze mode, the behavior is dependent on if the HSD is SOI or not. While in Freeze, the ownship position and radar volume symbology should move about the map. The HSD cursor should be able to be moved and able to range-bump the display. - If SOI: HSD switches to Centered mode at the cursor position. - If NOT SOI: HSD switches to Centered mode at the ownship position.

If the outside air temperature is greater than 24°C, the intermediate gearbox can overheat if hovering out of ground effect for extended periods of time. -
Low priority item, as per Bignewy in that thread.

How are you supposed to use Harpoon in R/BL mode?
Tholozor replied to MeanJim's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
Either fire all missiles with the TGT point present, or switch them back to RB/L after undesignating before launching. -
A discussion for this is already present over here:

What's your gross weight?

One thing to keep in mind is that the DEFA cannon on the Mirage is a 30mm, versus the M61 on the Hornet which is only 20mm. The other thing to consider is the type of ammunition you have loaded on the Hornet, as there are different selections for gun ammo (HEI, HEI-T, SAPHEI, AP, etc).

Amount of ammo in the gun does not affect weight
Tholozor replied to Gunfreak's topic in Bugs and Problems
The amount of rounds for the gun pod is determined by the pod that's loaded (i.e. M3P100 is 100 rounds, M3P200 is 200 rounds, etc). The different M3P pods definitely have different weights. The 'Gun Ammo' slider in the rearming menu (or the percentage in the editor) controls the amount of rounds for the M4. -
From what I can tell, landing and taking back off seems to reset the weapon profile without updating the STORES display. From my own testing, de-selecting and re-selecting the weapon updates all the of the settings (MODE, MFUZ, EFUZ, DRAG, etc) to go back to default, which would cross the weapon out.

CBU-99 with FMU-140 is useless - falls very short in CCIP and CCRP
Tholozor replied to AndrewDCS2005's topic in Weapon Bugs
VT1 and VT2 symbology appears to be reversed, check this: -
From my own testing, I've found that the symbology calculations for VT1 and VT2 are seemingly reversed (only had time to test the FMU-140 on the CBU-99). In the attached screenshots you can see (from Active Pause) that the impact points are exactly where the cluster lands, but according to the opposite setting.

Is GHS your acquisition source?

Is this in the back seat or the front seat?

Do you have a TGT point designated? -
Mods\aircraft\FA-18C\Missions\QuickStart, specifically IA-Hornet-CAP.miz You can check the quickstart.lua which gives the mission names with their associated .miz files.

This is correct. The #4 aircraft usually flies in the tail position in the diamond formation, leading to the tail becoming extremely dirty due to the exhaust from #1. To resolve this, they painted the tail black so it wouldn't look as dirty all the time due to the constant need to keep it cleaned. https://www.twz.com/40784/heres-the-story-behind-the-thunderbirds-black-tailed-f-4-phantom

@buceador He means it was recorded from the F1 cockpit view, the camera was repositioned to be over the shoulder with the pilot model enabled.

cannot repoduce and missing track file waypoint correspondence
Tholozor replied to jack333's topic in Bugs and Problems
Ensure Cursor Zero (CZ) is performed before navigation. Slewing a SPI with any sensor applies that slew delta to the entire database, and must be zeroed out. -

The ICLS system on the Hornet (AN/ARA-63A) operates from 15.412 GHz to 15.688 GHz.
