vienna Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Hi does anyone have also problems with changing EO range? i set up my personal profile for keys and hotas command. everything works fine so far. the radar works as it should and i can change the range as described in the options menu. but...i cant find any key settings for changing the EO sensor range. it is stuck with 10.0 on HUD and i cant change it. i remember this was possible in older versions of FC. any help?
Shadow KT Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 u cannot modify the range. It doesn't work as a radar. It shows what it can see despite range 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days
ShuRugal Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 u cannot modify the range. It doesn't work as a radar. It shows what it can see despite range it should be noted that when you change the "range" setting on the radar, you are not changing where it detects targets. What you are changing is the range at which it will scan the selected altitude. IE: if you set it to scan +10k altitude at a range of 10k, the radar will be looking up at 45-degrees. If you set it to scan +10k at 100k range, then it is looking up at 4.5 degrees. In both situations, the radar set will display information for any signal returns it receives along that path, regardless of how far away they are.
Robin_Hood Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 As ShuRugal says. To clarify it further, if you set your scan altitude to 0, the range setting will have no effect whatsoever. If your scan altitude is to any other setting (ex: +2), the range setting will only modify the antenna elevation angle. The EOS does not allow for such a fine tuning, and the scan range cannot be selected (so the elevation control is less precise). 2nd French Fighter Squadron
