Cerppo Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 (edited) Hi, we ( our team ) find CBU105 alignment very, very long ( 30+ mins lately) to get ready, and sometimes in fly they became DEG again. ( degraded i suppose ) .Any explanation on this behaviour, besides bug ? Edited August 29, 2023 by Cerppo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGhostOfDefi Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Well after longer flights you need to stimulate the Gyros used in the 105s INS. Perform a 100 degree turn with a good bank angle and so on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerppo Posted August 29, 2023 Author Share Posted August 29, 2023 Thanks ! Is this "normal behaviour" or a way to make it work in the game ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGhostOfDefi Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 This is intended behavior. If the Gyros are not giving an input for a long time the INS things something is off and reports an error. As soon as the Gyros give a signal back its okay again. Its a kind of "BIT" behavior.

Is this a new behavior? I haven't flown a10 with cbu105 for a long time but I don't remember ever having to align it for that long, the cbu105 is also kept up to date by the board GPS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You not really need to align it noir the problem is it’s position! It’s a BIT that fails and makes the weapon not operational! Imagine it like this: since the sensors are reporting the same over a long period of time there is the chance that a gyro is stuck or a sensor is broken, which would result in the same picture for the computer. So the computer says, hey something is maybe wrong I’m not operational, and as soon as you prove him otherwise he’s like yup sorry everything is alright go on! The GPS (Of the A-10 EGI) just gives them a starting position. And to be clear the WCMD (103 & 105) do not have GPS they just have an INS system. So it has nothing to do with doing an alignment really it’s just showing the INS everything is alright even tho the sensors report the same. And how long this is implemented I don’t know but I think at least as long as the Tank Killer exists. I’m not sure with the legacy 10C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But thanks for the detailed explaination ThGhost ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have also tested the whole thing and if you do the whole thing as you explain there are basically no waiting times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
