Mirage2425 Posted June 20, 2021 Posted June 20, 2021 Has anyone experienced issues with the TGP in area track not in point track. If I fly straight and level perpendicular to the target with the target to my right I end up having the crosshairs drift quite a bit to the left. The pod is never obscured, even though it shouldn't matter in area track.. Even a steerpoint does, entered manually. I don't think the steerpoint or TGP track is accurate from the beginning even though the crosshairs are directly on the target. As a result, I miss or have a near miss when I approach the target at low altitude and loft the JDAM. This behavior shouldn't be happening. Am I doing something wrong or is something wrong with the TGP? Thanks!

Mirage2425 Posted June 20, 2021 Author Posted June 20, 2021 I'll send one. Probably tomorrow. I don't think I will get to fly today.

You can check this by looking at your regular radar and if the cursor tends to move, it's your throttle. 492nd Squadron CO (F-15E): JTF-111 - Discord Link

You can check this by looking at your regular radar and if the cursor tends to move, it's your throttle. Except in my case the FCR (& 65s) cursor wasn't drifting. Only time a drift occurred was in when TGP went SOI. Took me several days of trying to solve it. Definitely didn't present itself as a cursor drift issue as only TGP drifted.

Machalot Posted June 21, 2021 Posted June 21, 2021 Check that your steerpoint altitude is correct. Otherwise your TGP will track a point in space (or under ground) while the ground apparently translates due to parallax. 1 "Subsonic is below Mach 1, supersonic is up to Mach 5. Above Mach 5 is hypersonic. And reentry from space, well, that's like Mach a lot."
Mirage2425 Posted June 23, 2021 Author Posted June 23, 2021 (edited) I should have been using INR mode, not area track. It's working as it should now. Thanks everyone for the assistance! Edited June 23, 2021 by Mirage2425
