Can't select the AIM-120 visual mode

[K4t4n4]

Greetings,

today I've tried to fire the AIM-120 in "visual mode" (6 key), but when I press that key the Sidewinders are automatically selected. If there are no Sidewinders left, by pressing the "6" key I simply deselect the AIM-120. The "flood mode" for the AIM-7 works correctly. Some suggestion?

Thanks.

Press 6 then...uhm was it D for changing weapons?

6 is for visual mode. (Flood) page 291 of the Flamming Cliffs 2 Flight manual.

6 key also uncage mode and caged mode page 93 of the Flamming Cliffs 2 Flight manual.

[D] key cycles weapons.

 

page 98 of the Flamming Cliffs 2 Flight manual, also explains AIM 120 Slammer requirments for this mode.

must be with in 10 nm visual and in the 120's seekers FOV to be affective.

In the flight guide, page 100, there is this statement:

 

"With AIM-120 selected as the active weapon, press the [6] key to enter the Visual mode"

 

In my case, it doesn't work. I've tried the quick F-15 mission, I entered the LRS mode ([2] key) and turned on the radar ( key). Then I selected one of the 120s ([d] key) and pressed the [6] key. Instead of entering the Visual mode, the Sidewinders were selected.

I do believe that the FC2 Flight Manual is wrong.

 

I follow the same instructions it gives and have the same problem.
