No Velocity Vector after startup

[coupe73v]

Hey gang. I'm new to DCS A-10 but having a blast learning. One thing I noticed is that after going through the startup procedure I learned in the games tutorial, there is not velocity vector on the HUD, but when I fly the AGM tutorial it's there. I created a simple mission that will allow me to practice, but since I'm using the standar startup procedure I have no Velocity Vector. How do I get it to show up?

 

Thanks.

You are probably in HARS navigation mode. After alignment, select EGI.

I am a noob as well, but to get TVV, you need to make sure the INS/EGI is working. Make sure you have CDU and EGI powered up on the AAP panel below the CDU. You then have to wait for the CDU to align and display 4 0 0 8. That's it's maximum calibration precision, so to say.

 

Then switch the CDU to NAV mode by pressing the switch next to NAV (right row). Switch from HARS to EGI mode as pointed out by EtherealN. Then turn on EAC on the LASTE control panel which is just below the left throttle lever.

 

The EAC and NAV lights on the malfunction panel should go out.
