This is true. I'd just argue some sort of ban on Jester is not popular. But I'm in the camp that says it doesn't make sense to Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

That works in theory Until a popular multiplayer server (blue flag, DDCS, GAW) takes away an option a particular player was happy with. Then the porch forms come out Each coalations Aircraft in BF Active missiles in BF Supply in GAW Dropping players with high ping No one is every happy Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

Manually Tracking Moving targets with the TPOD
Shadow_1stVFW replied to Shadow_1stVFW's topic in AV-8B N/A
It's a cold start issue. If you're hot starting, point track works. -
My track was acting weird, so I made this quick video. A quick demonstration of the ability to manually track moving targets in the AV-8B with the TPOD. I AM NOT saying point track should not be fixed. I am just showing you can indeed track targets. Loadout: 4xGBU-12 2xAGM-65E 4/4 Hits GBU 12 1/2 Hits AGM-65E 4 Kills (2 hits on one T-72)

Yes, I'll record one and put it up later today. Was rushed doing the one last night anyway (dinner was already on the table) -

Track File here Mission here Trucks moving at 30kts 5/6 hits. 2/2 LMAV, 3/4 GBU 12 Really not so bad. -

CCIP to auto transition, reflected cue, AUTO Mode Practice good profiles, fly predictably and steady NRAS Option Actually look at my speed on takeoff TPOD point track on moving targets Zoom in, track manually Low Altitude Warning (LAW) Watch my altitude manually Chaff/Flare Programs Pump them out manually I mean, I can go on. But there are plenty. Nice to have != necessary This module != complete - I just live with it. Also, it's not an analogy, it's literally something US Marines say... It's kind of a way of life. Just like the book reads. My radio is broken, guess I'll use this backup instead -
EDIT: This isn't me, btw it's actually Nealius's video

I mean, when you think about it that way, the more decimal places you're concerned about is only going to move you a couple meters across the ground, if you're 10+ miles out, especially with a variable zoom TPOD, it's literally a rounding error. Hahaha, flying is literally like 60% rough (and I mean ROUGH) math. Boil it down as simple as you can.

I just kind of spitball it. .1 is 6' .2 is 12' .25 is 15' .5 is 30' .75 is 45' and so on. It'll get you close enough. You are using the TPOD or DMT so with FLIR you should be able to find what you're looking for.

This personifies the our modos "Adapt and overcome" and "more with less" and "Semper Gumby" (roughly translated to always flexible) -
You're tanker should be at 275 indicated. You'll have to do some tweaking to get the right speed. But at around 20,000 feet you're looking at around 390 knots, it all depends on the conditions in your mission though. But that should help you out a bit. The Pegasus, and by extention the Harrier does EXTREMELY well in the low altitude region, the thrust that engine puts out is actually quite remarkable. But as others have said, when you start to climb in this jet, especially while loaded with ordinance, you'll start to see a big drop off in performance climbing above ~12,000. I fly it a lot in Normandy, usually hitting a tanker after leaving Lessay, most of my transits are around 15,000 (unless I need to avoid SAM threats) and I try to work targets around 10-14,000 to make use of the engine. I will usually weigh around 28-30K at takeoff but with no TERs, so single store per pylon to save on some of the drag. It's a bit of a funny jet in terms of performance, but flight it in the right part of the sky, it's not slow. Take it too high, and well yeah, the drag catches up with you quick.

This is it. This is all you need to know. Just chill, and everyone is happy.

It missed the main update and was pushed with the hotfix.

Just practice with the TPOD. You can move it around in area mode and track targets that way. It's tough, but possible. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

Have a weapon selected view the ACP or on the MFD in AG mode Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

It gives you all the options on the ACP except on the ODU instead. Keeps you from being SO heads down. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

That's the Engine Fast Deceleration Solenoid, pretty sure it's not modeled yet. So you wouldn't hear it as the engine won't decelerate fast enough anyway. 2.3.1.3 Engine Fast Deceleration Solenoid To avoid aircraft bounce on vertical landing,DECS incorporates a fast deceleration solenoid that is armed for 1 second by the weight on wheels (WOW) switch. A rapid throttle chop will activate the fast deceleration system and immediately reduce fuel flow. For aircraft with IPPC--227 incorporated, the engine fast deceleration solenoid is disabled.

Question Friend, Does this save between program launches? Or just the time you're in the sim and you save it? -
