Hello,

I have been able to use the tpod no problem in the past. Now with the ATFLIR and Lighting I get data displyed on the DDI but no image. I am not running any mods. I also did a fresh install of the F18. I am not sure how to run repair. I can not find the repair tool.

The pod powers up with the seeker head in the caged position, press VVSLV to point it forward.

When I choose VVLSV nothing happens. Ive watched videos on it and I see that pressing VVSLV, even on the ground which I am doing here, will get the TPOD to uncage. I have it fully powered on too. Not in Standby.

Do you have a track or video you could post? (Need track for bug report)

I think i just figured it out. I was starting on the carrier. I have know idea if this is intentional or not, but you can not uncage the TPOD on the carrier deck. You can on a ground start and as soon as you take off from the carrier. I was trying this on the deck cold and dark start. I thought  I was missing something. I tried a hot start and got the same results. So I hot started on the ground at an AB and then it worked. I knew at that point at least my module wasn't broken. I tried again on the carrier and took off and was then able to uncage the pod. For some reason I did not try a ground start before posting here. Thank you for your reply.

Did you do a full cold start on the carrier? Proper alignment? I did one this morning and ATFLIR worked just fine.

I did do a full Cold and Dark. Alignment I am doing is stored heading. It aligns fully and all DDI warnings go away. Did you do stored heading alignment as well? As soon as I take off from the carrier the POD is able to be uncaged. Strange. Are you able to uncage while on the deck? Even doing a hot start on the carrier gets me the same results if I want to uncage while still on the deck.

Spitballing here but were you wings unlocked/folded? Shouldn't have an effect...
