viper2097 Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 I noticed that, with closed canopy, I can hear the groundcrew only when my ICS mic is set to hot. That seems kinda strange to me, cause from my logical point of view, this should not affect if I can hear the groundcrew... However, so I checked the NATOPS. In the start up procedere, there is said that the ICS should be set at cold mic. (NAVAIR 01-F14AAP-1 - 7-11) Also under 19-1 there is no mark that the ICS needs to be at hot mic. So could someone clarify that please? Thx Steam user - Youtube I am for quality over quantity in DCS modules
Sergeant_Hamlet Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 IRL, the aircrew communicates with the ground crew using hand signals. Since we have no hand signals in DCS, we talk to the chief using the headset hookup in the nose wheel well.
Naquaii Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 The groundcrew has no PTT so the pilot do indeed have to set his switch to Hot Mic to be able to hear the ground crew. This does however not stop them from following your commands, you just can't hear them if you have it set to anything else.

On page 19-3 natops says: "When pilot ICS switch is set to HOT MIC, ground personnel can communicate with the cockpit stations." But I didnt knew that the reson was their unit didnt had a ptt :) For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB
