AngryViper.101 Posted December 19, 2022 Posted December 19, 2022 Hi Sometimes when dropping Paveway III's the laser does not automatically start lasing. What could be the cause, these are the steps that I take 1. set the laser to auto lase 20s (instead of the defaul 8s or 0s) 2. ensure that the laser is armed 3. even test the laser to make sure the L flashes when manually firing the laser 4. drop bombs, no laser? i7-11800H @ 2.30GH | 16Gb 3200MHz | GeForce RTX 3060 | Samsung 1TB SSD | KINGSTON 520GB SSD
Tholozor Posted December 19, 2022 Posted December 19, 2022 What parameters are you dropping the bomb from? Remember that the auto lase timer is the time-to-impact at which the laser will begin firing, so if the TTI is greater than the auto lase setting, it won't fire on release.

Hello Please may you explain that to me. So, if I release the bombs and they will impact in say 50 seconds. With my auto lase setting to 20 seconds prior to impact, I thought the bombs would free-fall for say 30 seconds (50-20) and then the last 20 seconds the laser will start firing? Questions 1. How do I determine the time to impact, prior to releaseing the bombs? 2. Please may you give me an example - assuming we know the time to impact prior to releasing the bombs P.S The only other settings I change is the release cue that I set to 8nm as in one of the example videos, and with release angle of zero degrees so that I can fly high and level, altitude +- 25,000 to 30,000 feet.

Will try and record a track when this happens again... i7-11800H @ 2.30GH | 16Gb 3200MHz | GeForce RTX 3060 | Samsung 1TB SSD | KINGSTON 520GB SSD

It's on the LASR page on the DED, same one where you set the laser code.

Razor18 Posted January 1, 2023 Posted January 1, 2023 Oh... sorry I just bought the Viper, and wasn't following all updates earlier... Also haven't found it in earlier update changelogs (looking for keywords "auto" or "lase" at least)... Thank you so much !
