dresoccer4 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 (edited) When I flip up the radar lock switch my radar goes from this: to this: And nothing happens...anyone know whats up? I'm following the grim reaper guide UPDATE: looks like I got a lock but the radar still looks weird and there's no symbology around the plane. what the heck?? null null Edited August 12, 2022 by dresoccer4 Acer Predator Triton 700 || i7-7700HQ || 512GB SSD || 32GB RAM || GTX1080 Max-Q || FFB II and Thrustmaster TWCS Throttle || All DCS Modules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm following the grim reaper guide ...I'm going to go out on a limb and say we've probably isolated the problem already. You've achieved a lock in the third image, but you've also switched your radar scope into low altitude mode, which turns off the search antenna and leaves only the tracking antenna active. It also means you won't see the tracking symbology on the AR-18 sight glass (I don't remember if you should or not in low alt mode - either way, ingame, you don't). Leave this switch alone unless you're at low altitude (~4km, clutter beginning to fill search radar scope). Note that the switch positions are currently the opposite of what the manual (and, presumably, the GR guide you followed) states - it's a known issue and will hopefully be sorted soon.

Dragon1-1 Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 It should be the other way around, AFAIK "2" is for two antennas, "1" is for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
