Sholtz Posted September 11, 2015 Posted September 11, 2015 I finallly did it...cold start, off to rescue the grunts and landed safely. Seems a minor thing but extremely rewarding. What an awesome challenge this bird is! Anyway, some of the radio calls confuse me. I recognize bullseye from my falcon days, but see no way to find my owm position relative to bullseye, is there a way or are the calls I see just cosmetic? Also, when reauesting azimuth I see something like this: Your current heading 302 for 15 How is that interpreted? And what is Qfe?
QuiGon Posted September 11, 2015 Posted September 11, 2015 Bullseye works exactly the same like in Falcon, only the Huey has no indicator like the F-16. So you have to hit F-10 to bring up the map and there you can see the position of bullseye and with the range and bearing tool at the top you can draw a line from bullseye. "Your current heading 302 for 15" means you have to fly bearing 302 for 15 nautlical miles. QFE is about pressure and altitude, but I'm no expert in this, so I leave that for someone else.

Joni Posted September 11, 2015 Posted September 11, 2015 Hi, QFE is the setting in the kolsman altimeter window that will make the altimeter show 0ft while on the runway. So QFE is something like the isobar that goes along the airfield in matter. There is a lot more to explain but it will be better if you google it yourself :) Intel Core i5-8600k + Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO | Gigabyte GTX 1070 Aorus 8G | 32GB DDR4 Corsair Vengance LPX Black 3200MHz | Gigabyte Z370 Aorus Gaming 3 | WD Black SN750 NVMe 500GB | Samsung 850 EVO 250GB | WD Green 240GB | WD Caviar Black 1TB SATA 3 | WD Caviar Blue 500GB SATA 3 | EVGA 650 GQ 80+ Gold | Samsung CF391 Curved 32" | Corsair 400C | Steelseries Arctis 5 --- Razer Kraken X Lite | Logitech G305 | Redragon Dyaus 2 K509 | Xbox 360 | Saitek X-52 Pro | Thrustmaster TWCS | TrackIR 5
WildBillKelsoe Posted September 11, 2015 Posted September 11, 2015 I recommend you read flaming cliffs 3 manual. The radio comms section. There is a table with every call meaning. AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.
