open beta DCS 2.8.2.35759 Arming Lantirn Pod in Multiplayer multicrew does not load Latirn grip in RIO cockpit (pod loads OK)

[hannibal]

went into hoggit multiplayer

me as RIO and buddy as pilot jumped in F14

we requested ground crew to load Lantirn

the pod loads up on to wing pylon, but the lanntirn grip does not appear on the RIO 

(i can hover cursor over the area and see lantirn commands, but not virtual representation of the Latirn Grip

we attempted the rearm, a few times, even unloaded and reloaded the Latirn, still NO LANTIRN GRIP!

we tried several F14 role slots (they just happen to be in the hangar)

GRIP TO NO AVAIL

then when i decided to hop in F14 as pilot (solo) and requested the latirn to be armed... once arm complete, pressed 2 to jump to RIO position, and the latirn GRIP is there...

 

SO SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH multicrew rearm of Lantirn....
