Glide slope

[JupiterJoe]

Been trying to auto carrier land and for some reason the glide slope is super low. I set-up the Stennis as data-link host, tune tacan, set ACL auto-pilot and ACL steering command, but the glide slope line on the HUD is too low. I have returned to trying to fly the F-14B, after a hiatus, so possibly I've missed something. It didn't used to be a problem. I've watched tutorial videos. Has something changed? AM I calculating the Carrier heading correctly? In this case the carrier is heading 097 degrees on the Caucuses map, so I should be on a course of 81 degrees to intercept the glide-slope and localizer beam? I am out about 25 miles when I turn in and at about 6000 feet. I have to fly down to under 1500 feet before the glide slope line will start to come up, even at 20 miles out. What's up with that?

Same problem for me, the glide is to low. Can't follow him, he just lead me under the carrier deck at 5 miles before.

Just found another thread for this:

It has been reported and a repair is in the works.

Any update on this? I'm still having this issue.

Actually, both the ACLS and ICLS are wrong. The ACLS is just *really* wrong and the ICLS is just a little wrong.

 

It's pretty obvious that the ICLS is bringing you down to where you would normally go on the old Stennis because if you fly the needles precisely you will land a little left and a little aft of where you should (which is owing to the old Stennis's incorrect and smaller dimensions).

The glideslope if way off. Azimuth works, but glideslope does not.

I wonder if they are addressing this?

Another update in 2 days, and nothing for the ICLS....Heatblur join a fix to ED brefore the Super Carrier Release!

 

 

in your changelog 2.5.6 49314 :

 

Fixed datalink connections with supercarrier. (Note: ACLS is currently off glideslope, we will fix it asap. ICLS is working as intended)

 

 

What's wrong with you ED? A third party (Heatblur) make a better work than you with your FA/18 for the aeronaval ops, and it's embarrassing for you? ;)

Same over here .

The glideslope on the autoland mode seems to be quite lower than the manual one ( if you cicle bet the modes you can see the diference)

Interesting, Pilot don't see the Glide slope (ACL) but human RIO can see the Glide slope.
