HawkEXO Posted March 18, 2022 Posted March 18, 2022 In CCRP mode, with TGP as SOI, I am accustomed to being able to press TMS forward to designate. TMS forward doesn't seem to do anything now for me in TGP. TMS back will reset TGP to the steerpoint as it did before update, but now it seems to just slowly drift off the steerpoint on it's own without any inputs from me. It will stay on the steerpoint if it's not SOI, but as soon as I switch TGP to SOI it starts drifting. I reviewed the change notes but I don't see what I need to do differently procedurally to set a TGP point. Anyone else experiencing this? Seeing the same thing on multiple PCs I'm using.

HawkEXO Posted March 19, 2022 Author Posted March 19, 2022 Looks like this was related to a little drift in my TDC axes. I added a small dead zone and it went away and everything works now. Did the last patch change the responsiveness of the TDC or just coincidence? I didn't need the deadzone until I updated. Maybe just a coincidence 1
AstonMartinDBS Posted March 19, 2022 Posted March 19, 2022 All works fine here and I didn't notice any change since last update. I don't have any deadzones in my TDC axis either.

Pressing all the proper TMS keys and it just wouldn't go into area or point track. I was getting frustrated and came out here to see if there were any bugs reported. Your comment solved my issue. I didn't even consider the TDC axes possibly sending data inadvertently. The dead zone setup solved the problem and I'm back on schedule from a training standpoint.

HawkEXO Posted June 16, 2022 Author Posted June 16, 2022 i actually like the small deadzone. TDC feels easier to use for me now, not just because of the elimination of the drift. 1
BMD Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 I'm seeing the tpod go spastic sometimes, perhaps after evasive manoeuvres.. Can't even use the CZ function to get it stabilized. I can TMS up or aft and it will still drift and spin out. After a moment, and sometimes switching it off and back on again, this behaviour will disappear. I have 0 tdc mini-stick drift, i checked after reading this thread.
