[CORRECT AS IS] Slew IR Maverick with Waypoint as target


Recommended Posts

Posted

When I designate the current waypoint as target and select the IR Maverick I am unable to slew it. I can switch its seeker between boresight and the waypoint with the cage/uncage control, but cannot slew it in any of the two modes.

 

 

When the waypoint is not designated as my target, it slews fine when uncaged.

 

 

 

Am I doing something wrong?

Once you use wpdsg to slave the mav to the waypoint you need to press the un-designate button. Once you do that you can slew the mav again.

Thank you! Is there a way to redesignate without pressing the MFCD? After I launch one mav, the next starts boresighted and I have to slew it back to the target.

I wish, maybe later down the road after they've added more features a better method will manifest itself. Here's hoping you'll be able to slave the TGP/ATFLIR pod to a waypoint and have all mavs slave with it like we have in the A-10C. (at some point after it comes out.).

 

Anyone have any idea about this?

On second thought of you left your HSI up on the ampcd you could map pushbutton 14 to your hotas and re designate each time that way instead.

I think they're talking about how in the A-10 you can slew to a SPI. I'm wanting this functionality also. Maybe when a T-Pod is implemented we'll be able to do it.

Yeah the problem at the moment is that you can slave to the TGT WP, but once slaved, there is no way to slew without undesignating.

 

This is a problem since you only get the TTMR and IN RANGE details when a TGT is designated. This means you lose IN RNG when you actually lock a target, which is madness, I’m sure it’s not how the real thing works.
