Possible problems when using the SLAM in PP mode with manual co-ordinate entry. Firstly none of the elevations appeared on the MSN page when added. Secondly after launch when unboxing the SLAM to get Data Link view you lose alignment on all other SLAMs loaded. Not sure if any of this is normal or a bug(s).

 

Thanks

I have the elevation issue as well.

 

I can enter coords in PP mode, but it will not accept the elevation value. It won't show the elevation on the display, and won't remove the X over the PP1 to allow use of that pre-planned target. I haven't tried firing anyway yet, but with the X still through the PP1 I don't expect it to work.

 

Steps taken:

 

Hot start on runway, 3 x SLAM and 1 x Datalink

Enter STRS, select SLAM, SLAM Display, Msn

Enter Lat / Long via TGT UFC (no problem)

Go to Elev via TGT UFC, select feet or meters, enter elevation data, hit enter

Entered data does not reflect on DDI in MSN page and the PP1 remains X'd out

 

Track is attached.

It still works. Tried it loads.

 

It might actually be a feature. It’s an 80’s tech weapon with a hodgepodge of components. I wouldn’t be surprised if the real weapon doesn’t use elevation, remember it needs man in the loop anyway - all the time. The cruise alt/flight profile means that a precise elevation isn’t needed.

 

ED may be in the process of readjustment in light of the SLAM-ER coming soon.

Well, then if it doesn't - how are you supposed to know if it's in range or not? Aiming for a higher target should affect the maximum rage when released from a certain altitude.
