tn_prvteye Posted April 21, 2020 Posted April 21, 2020 I've been away from the MiG-21 for awhile, and thought I'd take her up for a spin. I've found several issues that I see have been reported, but wanted to verify I'm not doing something wrong. CTDs: I've had several. Usually during a cold-start. I flip the SRZO-2 IFF power switch to on and crash. After I've taken off I flip it on, and no crash. Also, I was carrying Bombs and S-5 Rockets...I flipped the Weapon selector clockwise...when I went past the S-24, I got a CTD. I wasn't carrying S-24s. ASP: I just about given up doing any A2G. I'm not sure which tutorials are right, and which are outdated. I can't seem to get the piper to line up with rockets or gun. It stays static no matter which setting. Bombing seems to work even if I can't hit the broad side of a barn (my fault, not the Sim). Can someone point me to a current tutorial that's correct? Should I be getting a "dynamic" piper for rockets and guns or is the static one realistic? Radar: Seems like a 50/50 chance I can get it to turn on. I turn it on...and nothing ever happens...it never "warms up". Again, this is with a Cold Start. Are these bugs, or am I doing a Cold Start incorrectly? I'm following Chuck's Guide right now.
alexbap Posted April 21, 2020 Posted April 21, 2020 Both of these problems are bugs, already reported, so no. Your start procedure isn't the cause of CTD or ASP malfuction.

tn_prvteye Posted April 21, 2020 Author Posted April 21, 2020 I just wish we could get a confirmation either way. If there's no "dynamic" or radar-assisted aiming mode for the rockets or guns on the real thing, I can accept that. I'll just get used to missing the target. :D
Hiromachi Posted April 22, 2020 Posted April 22, 2020 The S-24 crash issue is already being worked on. I've tested files which fixed it for me.

LupinYonder Posted April 22, 2020 Posted April 22, 2020 Hi there. Here are some extracts from an English translation of the Bis manual. They detail the use of the optical site and the methods of Air to Ground unguided rocket use in Gyro mode. These extracts indicate that the site, using radar and data from the slant range unit, can provide an accurate aiming estimate. At the moment, if you follow these methods, the site does not uncage as it should when using Gyro mode in Air to Ground. This is either a bug or mistake of some sort. If you attempt to use manual method e.g. Missile mode, Manual Mode, manually enter depression angle setting using the S5 mark on the right-hand dial, the pipper is also at the incorrect hight and does not provide an accurate aiming point. I believe this is also a bug or mistake. I shall provide a dropbox link for the manual, I don't know it's source or accuracy but it seems pretty legitimate. The pages I've included are from 59-60 and 66. https://www.dropbox.com/s/3haomu0ncyb8vop/MiG-21bis%20Manual.pdf?dl=0
