    Datalink ingress point

    in DCS: Ka-50 Black Shark

    Posted

    ^^^^^

     

    This is fine if you want to keep giving him ingress points, but lets say that you want him to engage a new set of targets directly ahead, can you make him engage without using ingress points all together? I would like to know myself for quriosity purposes.... (I havent been using it myself, so I wouldnt know...)

     

    Exactly my problem! :joystick:

    Datalink ingress point

    in DCS: Ka-50 Black Shark

    Posted · Edited by Lee

    Hi

     

    I have a few questions regarding the data link. Hopefully someone can help me.

     

    I've been trying to wrap my head around the data link and implementing it in my missions.

     

    I wonder if there is a way to "erase" the target and ingress information sent to a wingman after he has executed an attack data link point command.

     

    My problem is my wingman keeps remembering the ingress point I first gave him so whenever I give him new targets to attack he flies to that initial ingress point and THEN attacks the new targets. That is alright, but sometimes it brings him across the battlefield and I dont want to keep giving him new ingress points keeping him out of trouble just because I gave him one for the first attack.

     

    So what I want to know, is there a way to clear data link targets which were previously given to him. Give him a clean slate so to speak so any previous datalink points don't clutter up what I want him to do. Clear only seems to clear data link targets on my abris not on his or am i wrong?

     

    Hope you guys understand what I'm talking about! :huh:

     

    regards

    Moving map - icon center

    There is an "options" sort of checklist in the abris menu....I don't remember what I did but I've got mine to always orient north no problem...I'll have to check it out and get back to you...

     

    EDIT: Go to the menu page in the ABRIS and click "options" then the down arrow once, then "change" twice, then "menu". Your new settings should be saved and you'll notice the map is now oriented north.

     

    Hi Rhino

     

    Thank you, but that is not the problem. I want my position to be centered on the map when in orientation mode north. As it is now, in that mode, the icon is at the bottom half of the map making difficult to use when flying south... :joystick:

    Hi all

     

    A quick question.

    I like to fly with the moving map orientation set to north for better orientation. The problem is that my position on the ABRIS nav mode is situated at the lower half of the map so that when I'm flying south it's hard to see where I'm going and what's in front of me.

     

    Is there a way to center my position on the map so that the distance to each border of the map is the same?

    Glad you like it! :thumbup:

     

    @ The Moose I could make a less "dirty" window if you like? I think a completely clean crisp window is unrealistic unless you are flying a helicopter right of the factory line (and not right of the frontline). :smartass:

    This is my Dust and Scratches window mod for the KA-50.

     

    Download HERE for ModMan install

     

    The mod does not cause a performance hit since the texture is the "same" as the orginal.

    The mod is best used with Textures set to High in options.

     

    Hope you like it! :thumbup:

    Hello

     

    Everytime I try and upload a gif, jpg or whatever format as a signature (how ever small I even make it, 1px X 1px jpg) I keep getting this message: "Unable to save image"

     

    I even tried refering to my homepage where I uploaded it with a direct URL - still same message. :bomb:

    Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? (tried in both firefox and IE)

     

    This is the sig:

    baro/altitude - heading/track switches

    in DCS: Ka-50 Black Shark

    Posted · Edited by Lee

    Hello all

     

    I have a small question regarding the two switches on the Autopilot panel.

     

    There are two flip switches. One for baro/altitude hold data and one for desired heading/desired track (see picture).

     

    The thing is both of them are switches 3 way switches and when you start out in a cold and dark pit they are both at the neutral position (pointing up)

    What is that third setting in neutral position??

    The manual talks of only two settings per switch... :huh:

     

    From the manual:

    6. “БАР-РВ” (Baro – Radar altitude) Autopilot altitude hold data source selection [LCTRL + X]

     

    ”БАР” – by pressure altimeter

    ”РВ" – by radar altimeter

     

    7. “ЗК-ЛЗП” (Desired Heading – Desired Track Angle) Autopilot Heading/Course hold mode [LALT + X]:

     

    “ЗК” – desired heading hold

    “ЛЗП” – desired track angle hold

     

    Thanks in advance!

     

    Regards Lee
