spn Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 With the latest release of the FC3 update, I noticed that "Route Following" is no longer available with the A-10A. The remaining FC3 flights, with the exception of the Su-25 which never had that option, still have this option. Has "Route Following" been removed from the A-10A??

Pepec9124 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 LAlt+4 Arms EAC, LAlt+5 Disables it. LAlt+3 = LAAP Altitude/Bank Hold LAlt+2 = LAAP Altitude/Heading Hold LAlt+1 = LAAP Path Hold To Switch between modes, AutoPilot has to be off, I think this quote is still up to date. Edit.

ferriwheel Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 The information Pepec provided is correct and historically accurate. Even F-16's don't have the ability of route following. Altitude/Bank Hold, Altitude/Heading Hold and Path Hold are all their autopilot can do as well. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Altitude/Bank Hold, Altitude/Heading Hold and Path Hold are all their autopilot can do as well. I agree with the information that Pepec provided as far as the real world data on the A-10A. What I was referring to was that with "Lockon On Flaming Cliffs 2", the "Route Following" is part of the key assignment options. I have Flaming Cliffs 2 mounted on a secondary drive and just tested. I usually don't fly the A-10A because of the A-10C being the AFM within World but I just happened to go to FC3 and noticed the key option differance. I think that the info Pepec provided was for the A-10C control options and not for the FC3 A-10A control options. Thanks for the info!

That's why they are changing things which were quite inaccurate in past (autopilot capabilities for example, removed 1x zoom in frogfoot etc.). I don't have access DCS world on computer I am writing this but I think key combinations provided from SkateZilla are for A-10A.
