GafferDCS Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I have a dual thrustmaster cougar MFD setup right now. Currently on the hornet I have these set to the left and right DDI. It occurs to me that, as these displays are not color, some important functions will only be found on the bottom color display. I definitely will need one of my cougar mfd displays to function with the tpod, IR mav's and when it becomes available, the datalink to other aircraft. Should I set one of my MFD's to display the bottom screen? AKA Gaffer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revelation Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 does that mean a ir mav screen, a2g radar, atflir cannot be displayed on them? No, not at all. They can and are used for those purposes all of the time. Win 10 Pro 64Bit | 49" UWHD AOC 5120x1440p | AMD 5900x | 64Gb DDR4 | RX 6900XT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revelation Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Here's an example of what things will look like: You can see the ATFLIR in the left DDI and A/G radar in the right DDI. http://pdt-usa.com/f-18.htm Win 10 Pro 64Bit | 49" UWHD AOC 5120x1440p | AMD 5900x | 64Gb DDR4 | RX 6900XT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gearbox Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Just get another one, they aren't super expensive. Do you have screens behind them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeathAngel1 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Actually the DDI's have limited color capabilities. If I remember correctly they can do Green, Red and Yellow. Red Green and Yellow? There are only green for me... ..:NAVY PILOTS ARE THE THE BEST PILOTS:.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revelation Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Red Green and Yellow? There are only green for me... For one, the color options aren't modeled yet. Two, we don't have any subsystems, especially with the radar, that will actually utilize it at this time. This is an Early Access module. Not everything works today. What the image shows you is what you can expect to see sometime in the future as the Hornet is fleshed out.
