GR00VYJERRY Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Before the update you hit the dogfight switch and it would go to dogfight mode where you could do 20, 60, or bore scan. Now it goes to slew. Is there a way out of it besides hitting the button on the mfd. I can hit all the different tms buttons and it stays in slew and doesn't give me the option for 20 or degree scan unless I hit the button on the MFD. Any solution to this?

Chain_1 Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 TMS aft should take it out of slew to NO RAD, then dogfight mode should work as you described. As for it going right into slew when you hit the dogfight switch, it might be because you're hitting your cursor controls at the same time. I tried it just now and everything worked as advertised. Maybe your control bindings changed? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GR00VYJERRY Posted December 29, 2021 Author Share Posted December 29, 2021 i will look at that. maybe my bindings have changed with the update. I will have to look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GR00VYJERRY Posted December 29, 2021 Author Share Posted December 29, 2021 Just checked on my binds. Everythign is good. When I click slew it switch to 20, then 60 , then bore. But only works if i click my mfd. If i switch to the TMS buttons it wont cycle and stays on slew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GR00VYJERRY Posted December 29, 2021 Author Share Posted December 29, 2021 Figured it out. My slew was moving ever so slightly. Had to add a deadzone and it fixed it. Thanks for the help. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the help. The slight movement of the cursor has caused multiple different problems for many people, including inability to boresight Mavericks, inability to get a point track and do a handoff, etc. I wonder if anything can be done about it besides requiring users to use a deadzone.

Csgo GE oh yeah Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Sorry for hijack, but can anyone explain to me, or point me where to find the function of this slew mode and what it's used for ? It doesn't seem terribly convenient or usefull in a dogfight ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chain_1 Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 I imagine that it's for when you're close but not yet visual and merged and you have an idea of the altitude block the other guy is in. Someone like Frederf or Mover would know better than me, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, i have a stock Warthog throttle and i use that tiny knob on the front for slew and it's just trash.... It's way to sensitive and even with deadzones, it still wonders of on its own sometimes Planes: Choppers: Maps: Flaming Cliffs 3 Black Shark 2 Syria A-10C Tank killer 2 Black Shark 3 Persian Gulf F/A18C Hornet AH-64 Apache Mariana's F-16C Viper F-15E Strike Eagle Mirage 2000C AJS-37 Viggen JF-17 Thunder F-14 Tomcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in DCS that is optional due to limitations of hotases. Maybe they could add an option to the Viper to have it ignore slew inputs unless a certain button is depressed.
