Bl4ckSp4rrow Posted October 31, 2022 Posted October 31, 2022 (edited) Hello, im new to the Viggen and learning it step by step. I created a mission with no waypoints on Persian Golf to practice starting and landing. I am starting the plane, programming the computer and rolling to runway. When i take off and fly a bit straight forward the heading bug (yellow one) shows in front of me when i press the "L Mal" button to get the landing waypoint nothing happens(Heading bug still in front of me and doesnt indicate the base behind me). I thought the landing waypoint is always the waypoint where i started. Can someone tell me what im doing wrong? Edited October 31, 2022 by Bl4ckSp4rrow
MYSE1234 Posted October 31, 2022 Posted October 31, 2022 (edited) Did you enter a base reference code or coordinates for LS, or straight up nothing? If nothing is entered on L1 (be it manually or automatically from the cartridge) the reference code for the LS base, or the coordinates of LS, will be entered automagically on L1. This might not be functioning correctly however, so could be a bug you've stumbled upon. Depending on if you set LS or not. Edited October 31, 2022 by MYSE1234 Viggen is love.

Bl4ckSp4rrow Posted October 31, 2022 Author Posted October 31, 2022 Im just entering the 9099 on starting up the plane. Thats what i saw in a tutorial video. He didnt enter any other codes but when he presses l mal during the flight the heading bug goes back to his starting base

I programmed the code for my base into l mal. now it works. thanks so much 1

Some however, especially in non-conventional airport start (ex: short air base operation instant action which starts in near kutaisi, would need cartridge to be loaded or even airbase code inputted manually. This all comes back to how the mission was setup. If the airstrip is not in the airbase code, well it manually inputting coordinate and runway heading. Unless I'm planning a complex route I nowadays just got lazy and inputted 1-3 waypoints manually.
