Lee Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 (edited) Hi I have a few questions regarding the data link. Hopefully someone can help me. I've been trying to wrap my head around the data link and implementing it in my missions. I wonder if there is a way to "erase" the target and ingress information sent to a wingman after he has executed an attack data link point command. My problem is my wingman keeps remembering the ingress point I first gave him so whenever I give him new targets to attack he flies to that initial ingress point and THEN attacks the new targets. That is alright, but sometimes it brings him across the battlefield and I dont want to keep giving him new ingress points keeping him out of trouble just because I gave him one for the first attack. So what I want to know, is there a way to clear data link targets which were previously given to him. Give him a clean slate so to speak so any previous datalink points don't clutter up what I want him to do. Clear only seems to clear data link targets on my abris not on his or am i wrong? Hope you guys understand what I'm talking about! :huh: regards Lee :joystick: Edited September 5, 2009 by Lee [sIGPIC]flash.gif[/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bee_Sting Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 (edited) you don't have to erase the ingress! make sure that u select the second or third ingress point using the data link panal. if u want the AI wingman to go to the second ingress point push the ingress point button twice to make him go to the second point then send the data to him. better yet use the pvi 800 to make him go to the second ingress point. push the ingress point button and select the 2 for the second and 3 for the third. push the wingman want and save the memory then use the data link to send him to that point.don't for get to reset the shkval to save to memory.

Inseckt Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 ^^^^^ This is fine if you want to keep giving him ingress points, but lets say that you want him to engage a new set of targets directly ahead, can you make him engage without using ingress points all together? I would like to know myself for quriosity purposes.... (I havent been using it myself, so I wouldnt know...) Help Beczl with his DCS MiG-21Bis project by Pre-Ordering DCS MiG-21Bis module NOW!

Martillo1 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Have you tried just to lock a target and say him to engage your target? Vista, Suerte y al Toro! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 Yes, he then travels to the ingress point again and then engages the target... EDIT: oh, sorry I misread. If I designate with the shkval and tell him to attack my target he goes straight for it. [sIGPIC]flash.gif[/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
