RWS/TWS - Azimuth change with TDC Slew


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

As per the title, I noticed that while in RWS we are able to change the azimuth setting (30/60 deg) by slewing the TDC cursor to either edge of the FCR page. I was pleasantly surprised as the setting also seems to be persistent and doesnt reset after returning from another radar mode or MFD page.

This however does not seem to apply to the FCR in TWS mode, as such my question pertains to wether or not this is an upcoming feature or is the behavior working as intended.

It would seem a strange design choice to offer the function for RWS only while omitting it for TWS, especially since one is able to change the azimuth with persistance through the OSB buttons.

Thankful for any insights offered!

Strange or not that's how it is. As I understand, DCS says that's how it is in the jet modeled. It's not too big of a deal in practice, even VR, just different.

I'm also under the impression it was functional in previous versions.

Also, could you please send me the thread where ED has taken a stance on the matter. I failed to find one prior to posting.

Thanks!

I’ve never seen anyone address it directly, but Wags notes this within his TWS video in a manner that gave the impression it is intentional. It will be far less annoying with the DTC implemented

Hope to implemented again  in  some update. 

here in WAGS video says that meaning  (When moving the cursor on the radar screen to the border it's supposed to switch between A3 and A6 settings or set the range to the nexthigher/lower value. This works in RWS, but in TWS nothing happens )
