mmoccio Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 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.

Tholozor Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 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)Mobius708 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmoccio Posted May 27, 2021 Author Share Posted May 27, 2021 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.

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.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.
