bunraku Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Hi I know on MAV's how to change the slew rate of the cursor, but how do you change it for the TGP? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baltic_dragon Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 IIRC it was in one of the pages under status, I think page 2 - there should be a Slew option to choose on one of the right OSBs. I am at work now, but try to choose the throttle setting on page 2 of stats menu, it should be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EntropySG Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 another great way of getting sensors on target is to click CHT aft short to instantly slew the TGP to where your nose is pointing. Then, look outside your window and point the nose of your aircraft (or better, the TGP diamond on your HUD) on the target location and you are there. Especially at close range for me this works better than looking through the straw and slew over a greater distance :) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially at close range for me this works better than looking through the straw and slew over a greater distance :) Yes, this is a must have skill to develop -- finding targets by looking out your window. If you don't have a waypoint on the target or a JTAC, another method is to use the TAD. Make your HUD SOI, then slew the box over the target (you will have to turn directly on to the target to do this, so make sure you have plenty of distance), make it SPI then slave all to SPI. Not really the OP's question but a good topic to discuss nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RightStuff Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Wish we could have HMIT! Especially with the RIFT coming out. :) Sorry for OT, but SCNR: Your expectations are too high. IMO the OR will be no factor for complex DCS-planes like the A-10C. If you need to use UFC, MFDs or CDU you're screwed with OR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansangb Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 RightStuff, The amount of immersion you get from OR is *BEYOND* belief. MFDs work just find because your hand reaches out and you know where you OSBs are. CDU's will probably work the same. In fact, I'm actually building out about 40-50 switches right now for easier use with OR. But we can get back to our regularly scheduled show. :) hsb HW Spec in Spoiler --- i7-10700K Direct-To-Die/OC'ed to 5.1GHz, MSI Z490 MB, 32GB DDR4 3200MHz, EVGA 2080 Ti FTW3, NVMe+SSD, Win 10 x64 Pro, MFG, Warthog, TM MFDs, Komodo Huey set, Rverbe G1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrongHarm Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I find that zooming out with TGP to speed up slew and then zooming back in for fine adjustment is efficient. I wouldn't want to increase the slew rate too much as it would invalidate the slew speed ratios tied to zoom level. It's a good thing that this is Early Access and we've all volunteered to help test and enhance this work in progress... despite the frustrations inherent in the task with even the simplest of software... otherwise people might not understand that this incredibly complex unfinished module is unfinished. /light-hearted sarcasm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But let's wait and see... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razor18 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 TGP slew rate is OK for me, but TAD cursor could be a bit slower. But they can't be set individually from within the MFCD menu, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sierra99 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Hi I know on MAV's how to change the slew rate of the cursor, but how do you change it for the TGP? Thanks STAT OSB NEXT (OSB 1) DOWN ARROW (OSB 15?) until TGP is selected and SLEW is option on right side (OSB-8?) Use UFC or CDU keypad to select new rate...insert into OSB 8.

Razor18 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Just a question: you can set slew rate on the THRTL page in the STAT page, but as I can remeber, TGP has his own slew rate setting option within the TGP CTRL page. Does this change the slew rate for the TGP only, or setting the TGP slew rate actually overwrites the "general" slew rate you can set in the STAT menu for all sensors? Just asking because I wanted to know if TAD slew rate is adjustable individually or not? I would like to lower TAD slew rate, but that of TGP is OK, so maybe I can set the general slew rate lower for TAD (and everything) in STAT, then I can adjust slew rate for the TGP only from within the TGP CNTRL page?

Faelwolf Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I just adjusted saturation in options for my slew control on my throttle, sped everything up to where I like it. No messing around with individual settings in the cockpit every time I go up. But to each their own. Also, TGP speed is very much dependent on how much it's zoomed in, so I can use that to slow it down or speed it up as needed. It has given me a much faster reaction time in combat, especially when using the HUD to set SPI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunraku Posted January 23, 2016 Author Share Posted January 23, 2016 On a similar, but separate issue do any of you guys struggle to see things in the pod? I am using 1.5 and have all settings maxed out. I just made a custom issue with me versus an OSA and although I knew where it was as i made the mission I really struggled to see find it in any of the camera modes.

But is it possible to adjust tgp slew rate in the tgp cntrl page directly without diverting over to the other mfcd? If not, i guess the quickest way is to quickly switch the mfcds via hostas so one has not to glace on the over side of the front dash each time adjusting the tgp slew rate.
