deez Posted May 25, 2023 Posted May 25, 2023 So...I've done the tutorials and read Chuck's guides, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the steerpoint information to display in my HUD. When I do the startup tutorial, it ends with the HUD navigation data being blank, even after turning the EGI to NAV. When I do the T/O tutorial, the system is already displaying the NAV data. How do I get the NAV data if I am doing a cold start?
razo+r Posted May 25, 2023 Posted May 25, 2023 Is there any waypoint in your flight plan if you do the cold start? Like, are there even any waypoints set up?

Solution _SteelFalcon_ Posted May 26, 2023 Solution Posted May 26, 2023 Wild guess: your INS alignment is faulty.

If doing full alignment, make sure to "confirm" the coordinates using the enter key on the ICP Planes: Choppers: Maps: Flaming Cliffs 3 Black Shark 2 Syria A-10C Tank killer 2 Black Shark 3 Persian Gulf F/A18C Hornet AH-64 Apache Mariana's F-16C Viper Afghanistan F-15E Strike Eagle Kola Peninsula Mirage 2000C AJS-37 Viggen JF-17 Thunder F-14 Tomcat F-4E Phantom
deez Posted May 26, 2023 Author Posted May 26, 2023 So, the HSD data is good. Ownship position and routing is good. And the steering cues on the HUD are good. What I can't figure out is how to display the steerpoint number and range in the bottom right corner of the HUD.
_SteelFalcon_ Posted May 26, 2023 Posted May 26, 2023 (edited) Which mastermode? Are you by chance stuck in dogfight mode? Edited May 26, 2023 by _SteelFalcon_

What I can't figure out is how to display the steerpoint number and range in the bottom right corner of the HUD. I think what you describe is an alignment issue. If you do a normal alignment and forget to confirm the positional data on the DED, you can get that. Please quickly describe how you do your alignment, as normal alignment has changed a bit and that might not yet been reflected in the manual. Or try again with a stored heading alignment, as this is more straight forward (and faster).
