TGP wont show my steerpoints

[Dendro]

Hi guys

 

Noob here. Struggling for days watching youtube and even printed chucks guide....going nuts!

Mission starts in the air....

I start with moving my cursor onto target area with the HMCS in DTOS and ground stabilise. I change to CCRP.

I press MARK and proceed to create steerpoint 26 to 30 with  TMS UP. Great! The coords are stored and everything is dandy.

Now I turn and want to do my run then I select steerpoint 26.....NOTHING! The TGP stays looking at the last markpoint I made. I then press CZ and then its all shot to hell and the TGP then looks at some random point way off the target.

 

What am I doing wrong?

 

Thanks in advance.

I believe after you make the mark point, press the UFC "0" button called "M SEL" which will make the current marked point the Sensor Point of Interest (SPI).
Cheers!

Hiya...thanks just tried that but when I press UFC 0 m sel it does not respond. Must I stay in STP page on the DED or must I RET to homepage on DED and then go to stpt 26 and press M SEL? I actually did try both.

Then, ensure CZ is pressed to clear any slews

Cheers!

Ill keep digging but TGP seems to keep targeting to steerpoint 1 and I seem to have no idea how to get it to look at steerpoint 26.

Track added if that helps.

seems like it was the sensor in the mark DED page...... once I seq'd it to HUD or TGP it worked. Sheez...this jet is fiddly.

, yeah, learning the switchology so you don't have to think about it when the pressure is on is the key.
