dresoccer4 Posted October 12, 2024 Posted October 12, 2024 (edited) The cargo guy is driving me nuts. He's constantly saying something I can barely understand like "the load is swinging fore and aft...ten" over and over. Ten what?! Tim? Tam? How can I make him understand I don't want to hear him anymore Edited October 12, 2024 by dresoccer4 Acer Predator Triton 700 || i7-7700HQ || 512GB SSD || 32GB RAM || GTX1080 Max-Q || FFB II and Thrustmaster TWCS Throttle || All DCS Modules

Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk ohhh. definitely does not sound like "tension". maybe he just shortens it to 10. i kind of think there might be some issues with sling loading in general beyond the annoying tension guy. for example I've got TWO sling load cargos below me and no matter what I do I cannot drop em. I was trying to drop them into a volcano but they will not eject. I've smashed the cargo hook release button (after opening cover) and also flipped the emergency cut switch. the cargo will not leave me nullnull 1 Acer Predator Triton 700 || i7-7700HQ || 512GB SSD || 32GB RAM || GTX1080 Max-Q || FFB II and Thrustmaster TWCS Throttle || All DCS Modules

tribundf Posted October 12, 2024 Posted October 12, 2024 Ten as in 10 feet, is how I understand it. he tells you it’s centered too, so if it’s swinging he will tell you how far out it is swinging 1

Darcaem Posted October 12, 2024 Posted October 12, 2024 "The load is swinging forward and aft. Ten" -> the load is "oscillating" (I don't know if that is the correct word) in the direction of flight, 10 feet "The load is swinging side to side. Ten" -> same, but perpendicular 1
