Why are you using optical anyway? You get better performance with IR Mavs. And no, optical mavs do not work with the TGP.

I was testing them with the TPOD. And yes they work with the TPOD but they have to lock in MAN mode.

Thanks by the way!

Handoff is only for the Ds. IRL it literally compares the images from the TGP and the Mav, and tries to get them to match. Doing that with an optical image is much, much harder than with an IR one. This is probably why this feature isn't available on the H. On the other hand, you get force correlate mode.

Ever tried IR with adiabate targets? Inactive units with the same heat signature as the environment are nearly invisible with IR, even with contrast gain changed. DCS handles IR emission with an astonishing quality, like hot truck tyres after a sunny day. There are reasons why we got TV and IR. IR for night and bad weather and expected high IR signatures. Nothing speaks against TV on daytime missions. The lock to everything, that my be good and that may be bad depending on the situation.

Just test it yourself, choose 3 D and 3 H and change weather, time of day, temperature etc etc.

Of course optical Mavericks work with TGP.
