I noticed your release altitude is low. I’m trying to release at 20k. Does it work for you that high?

 

Just did everything as described. Still flys over.

 

I’m going to start a new thread in case this becomes common later on.

till Wagner make a video tutorial, i hope this will help you

 

its 1440p, wait for youtube to render it

Make sure that:

Your bombs/mavericks have the correct laser code and armed

Master Arm - ON

A/G mode - Selected

TLD/R - ARM to have the laser armed

Check the FLIR monitor that have the legend "L ARM" at the top of the screen (if you change to A/A mode it will reset TLD/R to SAFE position and disable the laser)

Select TRIG on the FLIR so the trigger will fire the laser (it will disable the GUN option on the STORES section)

 

After that:

Mark the target (select your tracking mode)

 

if its a Maverick, hold the trigger to lase the target first so the mav have a valid target and cue and then pickle (without releasing the trigger till impact)

if its LGB, pickle and hold the trigger for the more or less last 10 sec TTI till impact (maybe more than 10 if the wind is severe)

**when you hold the trigger, the legend "L ARM" will change to "LTD/R"

 

Greetings

Still not working for me. On a hunch I tried CCIP and it worked. Tracks are posted in my thread. The big new guy is checking it out.

It seems that even the AGM-84D harpoon partially works, unfortunately I can not hit anything for now.

some one care to explain how you get Mav Es to work? i can laze the target, uncage the mav, it locks on and says MAV RDY but you are already firing the laser with trigger which is also weapon release, so you cant fire the missile

 

 

EDIT

 

ok this just came out

Gun trigger to fire the laser, Weapon Release to fire the maverick. They're 2 different buttons

Guys when you are start pressing gun trigger? Before LGBs drop or after that? My LGBs always lose laser spot and dont hit target, I watched all videos, but seems I still doing something wrong...

 

Both work for me, but the majority of the time i activate the laser 10/15 seconds prior to impact.

I use 18 seconds TTI, used from that in the A-10C. Dropped 4 LGB's today, all hit except one, but that one got masked 4 seconds before impact :)

Absolutely loving the pod, makes using JDAM so much easier, even LGBs

 

However, is anyone else having any luck with the TPOD tracking a moving ground target? For the life of me I can’t get it to track a something simple like a moving tank. I thought Wags said point track (PTRK) was implemented? Maybe I’ve found a bug?

I believe what you are looking for is part of INR, which isn’t there yet according to Wag’s post.

No, Wags did say that tracking moving targets was possible as of now.

 

What does INR do actually, cause we have now a MEM message when the pod is inertially focusing on last point.

To your last part, I am pretty sure INR is used when the video is masked (terrain, clouds, airframe, etc) to keep the LOS looking in the right area. I thought, and I might be wrong, that it also effects target tracking of a moving target as well since the point is not a fixed target.

 

I have some specific pod related material somewhere, would probably need to dig it up to see if it explains it all in detail. I may be right, partially right, or completely off.

I tried masking the pod and manouver hard and when the pod got unmasked it was right on the exact same spot as before.

 

I wonder if not having INR implemented yet makes it cheat, maybe? I thought that not having INR implemented would have made the pod not being able to "remember" the last spot at all.

Case in point, that's where I'm not sure what exactly meant by 'INR' coming later. If it wasn't implemented, I would expect the pod to move, with that being said, it could be simplified a bit until it's further developed.

 

I'll see what I can dig up...

I'll call myself 'half right'. INR is basically the backup for P/ATRK when target definition is lost. This would include PTRK when trying to follow a moving target.

 

Without testing myself, would be interesting to know if trying different options (BHOT/WHOT/CCD) has any effect on the ability to tracking moving targets. Might play around with it if I get some time as to this point, I haven't tried any of it to see exactly what happens.
