CCIP Pipper stuck at 90 deg down

Recommended Posts

edit: NOT A BUG: I didn't have RS selected on the PCA. That step isn't listed in Chuck's guide and they didn't mention it in the videos I was watching.

 

I tried CCIP bombing for the first time on DCS 2.0 NTTR with the instant action ground attack mission. I followed Chuck's guide and a couple youtube tutorials and couldn't figure out why I would never see the CCIP pipper when diving to bomb and then I noticed that I have to pitch down 90 deg to see the pipper because the pipper is stuck at 90 deg down. It doesn't move. I'm over 400 knots as recommended. This has to be a bug.

Did you set the Radar to proper A-G mode for ranging? did you turn on the radio altimeter?

what was your altitude and which bomb did you try ?

I set the radio altimeter to M. I also tried the other two modes. I selected BF1, the only option available in that mission. My altitude varied from starting my dive at 15,000 ft to starting at 3,000 ft.

If you're using high drag bombs and the airplane thinks it is at a high height then the solution will be very steep.

 

Radio altimeter only works to 5,000'. Make sure to select "RS" on the PCA and that you can see the radio altimeter providing a valid height in the upper right corner of the HUD.

You need to select at least one way to measure AG range for ballistic computer.

- TAS : AG radar. Currently it's "jumpy" and need adjustment.

- RS : Radio Sonde = Radio Altimeter. Works well only on flat terrain.
