John Galt Posted May 25, 2020 Posted May 25, 2020 With the release of the Super Carriers, it was time to take on the task of learning enough about the F-18 to make the purchase worth while. My problem is I can't get the AMPCD to be SOI. I have a switch programmed for sensor control and I can get the diamond in the upper right hand corner on both DDI's and the hud but no AMPCD, what am I doing wrong? Thank you for any help.
Razor18 Posted May 25, 2020 Posted May 25, 2020 Sensor Control Switch is supposed to be a 4-way switch. What did you use for it?
hornblower793 Posted May 25, 2020 Posted May 25, 2020 It depends what you have on your AMPCD - if it is not something that can act as a sensor then you will not be able to select it - try moving the SA or radar pages to it and then try again Windows 11 Home ¦ Z790 AORUS Elite AX motherboard ¦ i7-13700K ¦ 64GB Corsair Vengeance DDR5 memory @ 5600MHz ¦ Samsung 990 Pro 1TB SSD for OS, Samsung 980 Pro 2TB SSD for DCS ¦ MSI GeForce RTX 4090 Gaming X Trio 24GB ¦ Virpil WarBRD base with VFX grip, Thrustmaster A10c and F/A-18 grips ¦ VKB Gunfighter Mk4 and MCG Pro ¦ Thrustmaster Warthog Throttle ¦ VKB STECS Throttle ¦ Virpil TCS rotor base with Shark and AH-64D grips ¦ MFG Crosswinds ¦ Total Controls Multi-Function Button Box ¦ Pimax Crystal
DmitriKozlowsky Posted May 25, 2020 Posted May 25, 2020 Right now, I think that there is a disconnect between what TPOD is doing and what it should do. After designating and locking it to a ground target, selecting a bomb (in CCIP mode) makes TPOD go off target. Its very confusing as to what pod is doing.
Brun Posted May 26, 2020 Posted May 26, 2020 I ran into something similar recently. Sensor control switch down was selecting the left DDI rather than the AMPCD. Can't remember exactly how I had them configured, but I rarely change the AMPCD from the default.

John Galt Posted May 26, 2020 Author Posted May 26, 2020 Thanks for the help. Razor, I have a Warthog stick so I used the CMS(in F-16) switch which is 4 way and has the push button feature too to act as the sensor control depress. Fwd, aft, left, and right all work on the control assignment screen. I will put the radar on the AMPCD and see if I can get that to work. Thanks again for the help and suggestions.
