Gianky Posted August 28, 2023 Posted August 28, 2023 Hey there! I'm brushing up on my Hornet skills after a couple of months I let them take some dust and I ran into this behaviour, that shouldn't be correct, for what I know. When working with a JTAC, using the ATFLIR pod, I tried to enter LST mode using the Cage/Uncage button on the throttle, as I usually did, but it doesn't work. I had to use the PB on the DDI to track the laser. I looked around both in the forums and elsewhere and I couldn't find any piece of information about a change in the controls for the ATFLIR: am I missing something, or could this be a bug? Keep in mind that my keybindings are correctly set (I used the Cage/Uncage in A2A with the -9X and everthing works fine) and that LST works fine, as if I use the PB it spots and track the laser shot by the JTAC (codes were correctly set). Thanks for your help!
Solution Coyle Posted August 28, 2023 Solution Posted August 28, 2023 Not a bug, as the Cage/Uncage button should invoke another function in the ATFLIR that we are unlikely to get. Being vague on purpose, sorry. But yep, gotta hit the LST button on the DDI. 1
rob10 Posted August 28, 2023 Posted August 28, 2023 Cage/uncage works for LST with the LITENING pod, it DOES NOT work for that with the ATFLIR. That's likely where your memory is coming from. 1
Gianky Posted August 28, 2023 Author Posted August 28, 2023 Got it, guys, thank you both! Rob is probably right, I was thinking LITENING, not ATFLIR.
