  1. According to the -1, the altimeter check is performed just prior to taxi, but before the INS knob is set to NAV.
  2. WHOT/BHOT and Level/Gain are entirely user preference I feel. Set it to whatever lets you utilize the PNVS for the situation at hand whether it's spotting things or avoiding terrain.
  3. That's from the MLU M1 manual, not applicable to the DCS variant.
  4. The pod still stows when set to standby, it's the animation that's broken.
  5. The pod will experience Gs and landing forces regardless of whether the seeker head is stowed or not. Stowing it protects the seeker head from debris so the viewing window doesn't get scratched/damaged.
  6. I believe your measurements are pretty close. Another replica panel has the measurements at 245mm x 92mm: https://pcflights.com/ah-64d-apache-enhanced-up-front-display-panel/ Couldn't find any measurements in the -10, but I'll keep looking around.
  7. I thought that too, but if you look at the knob in the original image (despite being fairly out of focus) you can tell it's set to DAY. However @Raptor9 is still correct. You can see below the MPDs the aircraft ID plate (ZJ219), which corresponds to a Westland model. The EUFD is also different (the rockers/pushbuttons on the sides aren't the same as ours, image). The SHOW and PSN options are also swapped on the TSD.
  8. This step is only applicable to D models.
  9. It's tagged 'fixed internally.'
  10. According to documentation I've seen, PDLT is LOS and altitude only.
  11. Sniper XR is listed on the roadmap:
  12. F10 map gives you the DCS engine's "true" altitude, it doesn't account for inherent errors in barometric pressure systems or atmospheric deviation. The editor works off the "true" altitude, as do voice callouts for tankers, AWACS, and player reporting (e.g. CV recovery).
  13. Most of it is going to be in the textures and liveries.
  14. Probably not, I would venture to guess it still needs the HARM's seeker data to correlate with onboard sensors.
  15. COMM TEST switch is used to toggle squelch on and off.
  16. HOME FUEL caution should reset with the probe extended, gear cycled up-down-up, weight-on-wheels switch engaged from weight-off-wheels, or when the HOME waypoint is changed.
  17. Engine limitation, not a bug. If the ground crew gets told to rearm, then that's what they do.
  18. The manual needs a bit of a rewording on the countermeasure switch logic (the EW section of the manual doesn't appear to have been updated since S/A and AUTO modes were implemented), but currently should work as follows: In MAN mode: - FWD initiates program 5. - AFT initiates the selected numbered program. In S/A mode: - FWD provides semi-automatic consent to dispense against the direct threat. - AFT initiates the selected numbered program. In AUTO mode: - FWD provides no function, dispensing is automatic. - AFT initiates the selected numbered program. In BYPASS: - FWD dispenses 2 chaff. - AFT dispenses 2 flares.
  19. Time Difference of Arrival. The short explanation is that it's a geolocation method by using the time at which signals are received compared to the position of the receivers to help more accurately estimate the emitter's position.
  20. Check the BIT page as well, if one of the MCs is off, there should be an accompanying failed BIT for MC1 or MC2.
  21. Ensure the Mission Computer (MC) switch along the back left wall is in the center position, and neither MC is off.
  22. 1) Not at this time. 2) Currently nothing, the UPDT functions are mostly unimplemented. 3) This would be part of the UPDT function. 4) Uses the radar to obtain precision velocity updates (PVU) for INS alignment (does not provide positional information).
  23. The USAF never purchased the AGM-154C.
