Shadow_1stVFW Posted September 18, 2018 Posted September 18, 2018 So, I can't find anything on the FOV toggle of this button. What FOV toggle does it do and how does one use it.

scudrunner Posted September 18, 2018 Posted September 18, 2018 Perhaps if TPOD is in HOTAS mode it does the FOV? The one time I used HOTAS mode it didn't seem all that beneficial to just clicking regardless. - Moody
epoch Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 Indeed, it toggles FOV when TPOD is in HTS mode. Very useful feature.
twells555 Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 Hi All, Just wondering how do you put the tpod in HTS mode? I've never been able to find it...thought it was just a WIP rumor.... t Fargo I9-9900, GTX1080Ti,32GRam,Pimax 5k+, HP Reverb, TM WartHog, MTG Pedals
epoch Posted September 20, 2018 Posted September 20, 2018 I haven't flown in a couple of months but if I recall correctly you need to double-press Sensor Select Down to toggle HTS mode. Just to be clear, that's clicking the button down, not directionally (aft).

bkthunder Posted September 29, 2018 Posted September 29, 2018 This is very strange, I just tried to make sure and on my PC, with TPOD in HTS mode, the NWS button just undesignates the target, while the Sesnor select swith left cycles between WD/NR fov...

Nealius Posted September 30, 2018 Posted September 30, 2018 I can't figure out how it's logical to map FOV toggle and target undesignate to the same switch. Logically, this means that you cannot change FOV once a target is designated.
Shadow_1stVFW Posted September 30, 2018 Author Posted September 30, 2018 That's what I thought. Haven't seen how to make that work. I'm assuming it's for the MAV FOV. Maybe a press and hold before target designation to decrease the FOV. Didn't work. But they named it that. So I assume it came from somewhere.I can't figure out how it's logical to map FOV toggle and target undesignate to the same switch.

bkthunder Posted September 30, 2018 Posted September 30, 2018 Checked the manual, and it definitely doesn't change FOV in the TPOD / HTS mode. What it does is set the TPOD in slave mode (which doesn't work correctly btw).

ariyaner Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 hi is there some new information after over a year about that FOV feature ? which makes no sence for me when its also undesignate my target thx
some1 Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 It's for changing Mavericks FOV, but it never worked correctly. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=232106 Combining it with undesignate also makes some sense, because in real life (and in DCS F/A-18 for example) you can not change the FOV of a Maverick locked to a target. You can either change FOV or undesignate, never both. For changing TPOD WIDE/NARROW, you can use Sensor Select Switch Left with TPOD in HTS mode, but there is no HOTAS control for smooth zoom in/out.

Marsvinet Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 there is no HOTAS control for smooth zoom in/out. There is now! Under the section keyboard macros there is a TPOD video zoom in/out. It is only half-fake since the Plus version controls zoom with the antenna elevation, which the NA does not have. Makes sense to have a short command for it in the NA too and it is small and practical enough for me to accept it.
some1 Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 I mean there's no hotas control in the aircraft, you could always map MPCD buttons responsible for zoom+/- if you were desperate.

Harlikwin Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 I mean there's no hotas control in the aircraft, you could always map MPCD buttons responsible for zoom+/- if you were desperate. I did do that for a while... Then I felt it was cheaty and stopped. But its a great thing to have on the planes that do have it.
