Stratos Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 I designed a american FARP with the Hummer and the 818 transport, but I can't get any radio communication with them, and of course they don't turn on any light for night landing. Any idea of how design a mission that let me communicate with the FARP and made them turn on the lights? Thanks. I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!
Jona33 Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Check the frequency you set when you placed the FARP is the same one as you're communicating on. Also double check you're on AM, it can be switched and has caught me out a couple of times. Always remember. I don't have a clue what I'm doing
Stratos Posted December 23, 2011 Author Posted December 23, 2011 And how can I know the radio freq?? I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!
Stratos Posted December 23, 2011 Author Posted December 23, 2011 And how can I select aproppiatte Frwquency, manual doesn't explain that. I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!
Jona33 Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 (edited) In the cockpit? The orange wheels on the left side of the pit just above the targeting control panel. The windows show the frequency. Edited December 23, 2011 by Jona33 Always remember. I don't have a clue what I'm doing
Stratos Posted December 23, 2011 Author Posted December 23, 2011 Mark the freq and tehn try to contact again? I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!
Jona33 Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Sorry? Always remember. I don't have a clue what I'm doing
Stratos Posted December 23, 2011 Author Posted December 23, 2011 I'm asking if I need to select the frequency using the orange wheels only or If I need to push any more button. Thanks. BTW Mate, rep to you, you're very helpful to new players. I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!
msalama Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Apart from being on a right frequency you should have a right transmitter on your intercom as well (R-800 / VHF-2 as memory serves, can't check right now). The DCS Mi-8MTV2. The best aviational BBW experience you could ever dream of.
enigma6584 Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 I'm asking if I need to select the frequency using the orange wheels only or If I need to push any more button. Thanks. BTW Mate, rep to you, you're very helpful to new players. Yes Stratos. When you want to communicate with the Tower of the airfield you are at, you must put in the frequency of that Tower in the radio control panel on your left hand panel. Look at pages 174-175 of the manual. Those little orange wheels rotate and the numbers change to what you put in them. Put the Tower frequency in. Now use communication menu and talk to Tower. Also, when you start a mission in single player, the default setting on the radio is (I think 127.5), remember that number or what-ever number is in there because that is the frequency you will use to talk to your wingman. When you take off and no longer need to talk to Tower, you switch that frequency on the radio to 127.5 in order to be able to give commands to your wingman and hear him over the radio. When approaching back to the airport for landing, put in the frequency for the tower.
Stratos Posted December 26, 2011 Author Posted December 26, 2011 Got it working, thanks guys, every day adding a bit more of realism. Thanks I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!
