F 18 Hotas Functions


Recommended Posts

AStrange logic though (why only from WACQ if HMD on??).

With the HMD turned on, VACQ is only accessible from WACQ because SCS down enables AIM-9X UPLOOK Mode (which doesn't really seem to do anything yet).

Uplook actually works. However, the seeker circle is blanked so you have to rely on audio only. Not sure if that part is correct.

Here's an update which adds a bunch of stuff. And a quick reference for where buttons are located on the real Hornet HOTAS.

 

I found this is really good. Please... can we have printer friendly version. Too dark to see when I print with my crappy printer.

Thank you.

Yup, someone else suggested that as well and I'm planning on making a more traditional black and white version that'll print better with my next update - which will also add AZ/EL.

Update!

 

I added AZ/EL, updated the A/A RDR page, FACQ, AACQ, and added references for which controls can be activated by the TDC.

 

I also made a B&W version that should print better than the MFD themed one.

So I typed this up from memory as a first crack at some kind of unified guide. It's totally possible I've missed some things, this is a rough draft. If anyone sees something wrong or that I missed let me know and I'll update it. Text in red are functions that are not implemented yet in DCS but I know and understand what they do.

 

There's a bunch of other stuff not in yet related to pages and features we don't have (and may never have in some cases). If I don't fully understand how the feature works, I didn't include it. The Az/El page will bring a few additional HOTAS functions for the radar and A/A FLIR, There are TDC Slew functions on the SA and HSI pages, a waypoint slew function for adjusting waypoints on the HSI, and a MAP Slew function on the HSI that has something to do with map alignment.

 

I had a realization last night that an illustrated quick-reference guide might be easier to make on a per-page basis rather than a per-switch basis like is typically done with the Hog and Viper. I'll try to draw up something like that.
