Hi, dunno if its just me, I cannot get the pipper or fixed net sight to appear on the ASP sight. I have turned on all relevant switches, played with brightness - nothing. This is only on cold start - no problems with hot start

[Edit - I think it's related to the aux inverter switch as you can now blank out the gun sight (from a hot start situation) by turning the aux inverter on]

That's weird. I was just fflying the MiG-21 yesterday (Open Beta), and the pipper came on just fine. :huh:

Start cold and dark, connect external power, set up everything with engine still of and gunsight started working? In my case it only illuminates its scales, but the piper is absent, so as fixed net.

I had this issue a while ago but then it stopped happening. I only use Auto-start, after that I flick all the weapon switches, then ASP net and pipper come on fine.

 

Maybe you're breaking it by turning the engine on with ASP already on?

I use only cold and dark mission start. Never use autostart. The real world procedure to check the sight before starting the engine. The sight is obviously receiving power as wingspan, range, ballistic knob scales illuminate. But fixed net and piper don't appear until engine is started which is wrong and strange as engine doesn't support the ASP with anything the ground power and onboard inverters can not. Oh, and if I turn the engine on after all that, the sight scales appear on the reflector without touching anything sight or generally avionics related. Like projector has a separate power line than the sight in general, and that power line goes straight to the generator only.

Mission, hit by ZSU, cone damaged and sight went off. I landed, AC cold, repair requested and repaired. I did normal start up as usually but sight not available.
