Not understanding this whole HARS ramp start thing.


Recommended Posts

Hey all,

 

I saw the thread saying how in order to enable the EAC, you have to do something with hars and the egi. I dont know what hars is, can anyone explain that to me? Is it a button in the cockpit or something?

 

Also, when exactly am I supposed to flip the EGI switch in this new procedure?

 

Thanks!

A quick search of the Flight Manual for "HARS" brings up pages 109, 116, that are relevant.

 

From my dedicated thread on the subject:

 

"As you all know, 1.1.0.8 is introducing the HARS correctly being the default Navigation Mode when doing a ramp start. It was EGI mode previously.

 

With the HARS mode active, you will not get any FPM/VVI in the HUD, and you will not be able to arm the EAC.

 

If you switch from HARS mode to EGI mode after complete INS Alignment, then the FPM/VVI returns, and you can arm the EAC."

HARS is what the A10A used. The A10C uses EGI. HARS is now the back up system incase you lose EGI. The buttons to chose are in front of the Stick. Easy to see if you are using Head Tracking Software.

 

After you do a full allignment change from HARS to EGI and then you can engage EAC and get your FPM Velocity Vector back.

 

Just another button to push during the start up procedures.

I just replayed the start up training mission in 1.1.0.8 and I noticed the instructions to push the arm EAC switch don't work until I disengage HARS and select EGI on the front panel, then I can arm EAC. But the instructor never mentions that in the patched version of the sim. Perhaps I did something wrong though?

The training mission unfortunately wasn't updated in v1.1.0.8!

Can we assume that the Training Missions will be in "sync" when the next update patch arrives, and whatever else is updated in the next patch is also being updated in the Training Missions. I'm kinda a newbie and need that extra hand-holding that the training missions provide.

 

Or is it don't assume anything? :D

I assembled an extensive TOFIX-list for the training missions in 1.1.0.8 over here! I really hope it'll all be fixed!
