CPG Boresight

[dresoccer4]

Question: when starting up cold and dark, will the CPG boresight on his own, or do you have to do it manually?

ok thanks, this may be causing a lot of people headaches as I assume george would prepare his weapons systems correctly before firing.

any idea what else needs to be done from the CPG that George doesn't do?

Check laser and other sensor, same apply for doppler nav and so on, dont rely on him for activating anything.

Well that's a Problem on Multiplayer Servers then, when you are flying alone in the AH-64, and rely on George as CP/G as the Gunner.

Isn’t the laser only able to be armed from the CPG Seat?  I swear I’ve tried to do it before and laser doesn’t show up in the WPN>UTIL page as pilot. This would make Hellfires unuseable in multiplayer w/o a human CPG.

I think if u dont switch to gunner then its all done automaticly fir george but soon as u switch u have to do it. Cause i use george all time and he hits everything with me only as pilot

Yeah only CPG can arm it

When starting as a pilot in a hot pit - once I ask George to engage with guns on any target, he always misses.  In fact I've only ever got George to kill one target with the gun and that was super close range.

I found the rounds would overshoot to the left in almost all cases.   This is with air start or hot pit start.  I find his aim is terrible.   I can be hovering still or flying slow or close range.  His aim is just crap.

yes I think this is a known issue and DCS is going to have to work on George targeting some more
