Firing with ka-50

[Romeo-Alfa-Foxtrot]

there is my problem: i can't shoot anythings, shells, rockets, missiles....does anybody have an ''how-to'' list? I try to do like its wrote in the manual but anything apears on the hud...why?:joystick:

You sure you're pressing the right key? For Vikhr's you need to have lock on target and targeting circle has to be on top the target (or very close to it)... guns (automated aim) also need lock (on point on gruond/target) and you need to be in that rectangle range... and of course you need to be in weapon range. For unguided rockets, they should fire at any time (when sellected the right weapon pylons).

 

Maybe others can chip more info in

Are you turning on "master arm"?

 

Try this: load up a shark with gun only, takeoff, hover, then hit "c", make sure master arm is on (LAlt W), and then mash the space bar. You should be rewarded with the lovely "thud thud thud" of lead kinetic solution flying downrange.

Turn on weapon syst. (next to ejection seat switches)

Flip master arm (middle console, black/white switch)

 

weapons should work after that

You must be at least 21 years old to use the KA50 weapon systems.

[Groove]

For starters try:

 

1: LALT+W

 

2: C

 

3: Pull the trigger

You should seatch for Wags tutorials on youtube. Try search for black shark note 6

 

power on weapons system - Switch

laser on - Switch

uncage sensor - O key

master arm on - Switch

select pylon - S key or Y (try S, I press Z because I have German keyboard)

lock target - map sensor head to throttle and lock button

fire - release weapon mapped to button

reset weapons system - backspace

 

"Switch" means a switch in cockpit, won't even try to explain which one, youtube shows you.

 

Press C at anytime to get cannon.

 

Try that for starters, very rough guide, I'm still learning it.

I don't have problem firing weapons. My problem is that with sim mode i can't get lock on targets or don't see them at all before they shoot me down. Now i just turned the easy avionics on. That way finding and locking on targets is like too easy. :cry:

I wish something like a medium difficulty avionics. Targets are easily identified, but everything else is hard as in "real" avionics.

[nemises]

^^ how about turning labels on ? (left shift + F10).

Everything blue is bad :)

[deviletk]

Labels are a very boring solution. I dont have BS yet so i dont know how well you can scan and find (identify) targets solo. But with some A/C's its almost impossible without support from i.e ground troops etc.

 

In one of Wags videos he sends out 2 of his wingmen to scan areas and when they find enemies they upload them to him through the datalink. After that you got them on your ABIRS and can engage plus tell your wingmen to engage. Even tell them from where they should attack using the datalink. Very nice indeed.

tank to everybody, im now able to fire with canon!!:pilotfly: but any of my shells touch the target, i mean shells hit the ground then rebound....:music_whistling:

but now, how to fire a rocket is my next objective....

or don't see them at all before they shoot me down.

 

Welcome to reallity .... Live's hard as a combat chopper pilot ;-)

(and it will get even harder after ED implement AI logics like "use your f*ckn smoke granates" to the ground units ;))

Here's my reply as it took me a while to get right as well.

 

For the purposes of this, we'll use the bog standard Helmet mounted sight procedure (because I'm still practicing with this rather than vector to target etc). You might also find it useful to download the user mission 'road block' - I'm still using this to practice my duck shoot.

 

1)Obviously, fly to and locate your targets

2)Press Alt-W for master arm 'On'

3)Press 'H' for the sight

4)For Vikhr missiles, press Y

5)Press 'O' for the TV and slew the target box to position. Once you find a target, press the target lock key, Typically 'enter' on keyboards

6)Manoeuver into firing range, and make sure you have the two green circles in the hud aligned.

7)Once you get into range, and the two green circles are together, the yellow circle will eventually become a crosshair, at which point you HOLD the fire button for a second.

8)Press 'F6' to watch 45kg of laser guided missile slam into the target.

 

HTH :thumbup:

 

Now I have my own problems here, so to avoid confusion I'll start a new thread and quote this.
