stevieray Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 They should call this thing the Confused Dyslexic Unit.. ;-) The crux of my issue is I can only search for waypoints when the AAP page knob is set to OTHER (all other page knob settings seem to make fields read only, in that I can't get the value from scratch pad into any fields w LSK's). Once I find the waypoint, I'm looking for a simple way to say 'make this my steer point'. You're right, it makes no sense to have to create a custom WP if already in the database. The manual indicates to set the page knob to STEER.. I'll go play around some more..

stevieray Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 I figured it out. If I want to search for an arbitrary waypoint in the database and set it to be the steer point, the aap Page dial must be on STEER and the steer dial set to MISSION. Once that's done and I find a waypoint (by Id name) I can then press the LSK to make it the current steer point. No cycling necessary.

PFunk1606688187 Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 There you go. So many layers to the CDU. I also never use those dials. I use UFC Function shortcuts almost exclusively.

TonyStovepipe Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Could anyone help me out and let me know what this switch does? I am not sure if I should add to my little control panel I am making for the A-10c Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shagrat Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 (edited) It's the fire extinguisher charges button. You pull the yellow handles when alight and switch it either left or right to blow out a fire... you have two charges in total, one left, one right!

shagrat Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 First TMS up short to designate/lock the point/area on the ground the SOI (Sensor of interest) is looking at, then TMS up LONG to make it SPI.

Blue_Maverick Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Hi, I have a problem with my trim controls. Before I got my new joystic logitech FORCE 3d pro my trim controls were working perfectly fine but then, when I tried to switch it from default controls to hat on the joystick the trim doesnt respond anymore. But even if I put the controls back to the default it still doesnt work. Any solutions how to put it back to work? P.S. Sorry for bad english.

TonyStovepipe Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Anyone know if you can use toggle switch to eject? It seems that you have to press ejection button 2-3 times for it to work so my single toggle switch will never work? Thanks for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFunk1606688187 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Anyone know if you can use toggle switch to eject? What device is this? I know that in my X52's programming software I can set key macros on any joy key that can be set to repeat a set number of times. Should be easy enough with appropriate software to do a Ctrl-E 5 times whenever you press the toggle. Warning: Nothing I say is automatically correct, even if I think it is.

TonyStovepipe Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Hi thanks I am using a leo bodnar BBI-32 button box board. I don't think I can set macros with that as it's plug & play. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICS_Vortex Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Hi guys, from Russian comunity of DCS. i have one question. In flight with negative '-1G', both engine are stop. i turn off both engines, and try to start left engine, but the engine start cycle stops at ~30% Core RPM. i tried to 'motor' this engine, than tried to start it with 'ignition', but the result was the same - start cycle stops at 30% Core RPM.
