Cobalt027 Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 (edited) I've noticed that when I'm flying, the nose bore circle is always situated about 7 or so degrees above my TVV indicator, regardless of the aircraft weight, speed or thrust. Is this just something about the way the Warthog flies as a rule, or is it something I'm doing wrong in my flying? My money is on the second one, but I'd like to know.

PFunk1606688187 Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 Are you talking about the dashed circle with a pipper at the centre thats at the very top of your HUD? That would be the Depressible Pipper, usually its aligned to the Zero Sight Line by default. It shouldn't move, but the TVV will. In level flight I don't think it should appear particularly different in terms of space between the TVV and the Pipper in most weights or speeds, but if you do something radical like say drop full flaps and gear you should see the TVV sink to the bottom of the HUD as your flight path changes before you make any attitude or power changes. I think it must be in your head, if I'm guessing what you mean anyway. That or I'm overlooking some aspect of aerodynamics I'm just not familiar with. Warning: Nothing I say is automatically correct, even if I think it is.
