Steel Jaw Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Is there a way to override the HUD wind drift for times when it blows too far to the side to be useful? In the F16 (I know from Falcon4) there is a switch for drift override that forces the HUD to stay centered. We couldn't find this option in the A10.

DocSigma Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 I don't think there is HUD drift override on the A10C IRL, but I know there are people here who actually work on the A10C IRL who can answer this question for certain.

StrongHarm Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 It may not be the best solution, but I trim the rudder. Sometimes I have to counter trim the ailerons. It's a good thing that this is Early Access and we've all volunteered to help test and enhance this work in progress... despite the frustrations inherent in the task with even the simplest of software... otherwise people might not understand that this incredibly complex unfinished module is unfinished. /light-hearted sarcasm

Spetz Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 So thats why my HUD would all but disappear..Was wondering what that was..thanks !
mic1184 Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 ...they should have included a 16:9 super wide HUD along with the FCS/ECM upgrades when converting the A-10As to Cs ... not to speak about a bubble canopy and more powerful engines, and ummm a radar (i hear opposition coming haha) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] MB: DFI Lanparty UT P35-T2R CPU: Core 2 Quad Q6600 G0 @ 3,6 GHz @ 1,328V VGA: MSI GTX460 HAWK @ 850/1700/1000 MHz MFCD: Eizo S2231 22" S-PVA RAM: A-Data Vitesta 2 x 2048 MB @ 960 MHz FLT EQPM: Saitek X-52 Pro, TrackIR 5

BiPod Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 Mic1184, where would they put the radar? Don't forget, the nose is taken already I believe the C model has a tow bar listed as an optional extra. Don't know if ED has implemented it though:smartass:.

It's called a F/A-18 (except for the 16:9 HUD lol) :)

Arclight Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 Vulcans are for fly-swatters. Mud-movers have no use for it. :P And what would you use a bloody radar for in an A-10? Just something for your enemy to home in on imho. :music_whistling: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] DCS A-10C: putting the 'art' into 'warthog'. (yes, corny. Sorry.)
scoochy Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 Shwa? Radar combined with the TGP would be golden! Visual is only worth so much, especially in foul weather. Slap a snazzy ground radar on this thing and you could see much further and in any weather.
Eddie Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 And what would you use a bloody radar for in an A-10? Just something for your enemy to home in on imho. :music_whistling: Perhaps ground mapping or ground moving target detection. :smilewink: There have been times when I've longed for my old Viper and it's radar while orbiting over the battlefield trying to find an elusive target.

Just something for your enemy to home in on imho. :music_whistling: Other aircraft have 20 mm Vulcan cannons. The A-10 has the GAU-8. Other aircraft have puny little radars. If the A-10 had a radar, proportionality dictates it'd have a radar which could: 1) Fry bacon, small animals, T-72s and small countries from up to 7 nm away. 2) Make the planet spin the other way due to the electro-magnetic recoil. 3) Absorb all the global warming. 4) Act as a weather radar by painting the weather. Painting as in "drawing new weather", not as in "recording the current weather". 5) Make the RWR beep, as the radar beam hits the transmitting A-10 after circumnavigating the planet... or possibly the entire curved space-time continuum. 6) ... 7) ... ;) 4 ----- Introduction to UTM/MGRS - Trying to get your head around what trim is, how it works and how to use it? - DCS helos vs the real world.

StrongHarm Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 Like I said previously, use your rudder trim to bring it back into view.. it works for me. The Warthog has a 90% mission success rating in our current conflict. I think we should consider the fact that there's something available today that allows better search and acquisition of ground targets than the conventional ground radar. It's a good thing that this is Early Access and we've all volunteered to help test and enhance this work in progress... despite the frustrations inherent in the task with even the simplest of software... otherwise people might not understand that this incredibly complex unfinished module is unfinished. /light-hearted sarcasm
