Avio Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 When rolling in for a CCIP attack, I am not able to see the CCIP reticle unless I go on a very steep dive. Even then, the warning staple already is showing even though I set to TRN turn away after drop bomb. Tried moving camera up and although I could see whole of HUD bottom, still no sight of the reticle until much later. I do not have track-IR. Any help appreciated.

Destroyer37 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Were you doing a rocket run or a bomb run? For dropping bombs I usually get the pipper well into the dive and will be at a fairly steep nose down attitude (regardless of my selected escape maneuver setting). You may want to try starting out at a higher altitude and play with it a bit change your attitude until you get it sorted (also remember your altitude vs. the target altitude. Good Luck!

McBlemmen Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Pitch down or increase airspeed. Also i have to ask... are you using mk82air? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildBillKelsoe Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Is your target altitude set in cdu (DTS)? And is the soi a sensor or a steerpoint?

Avio Posted June 30, 2015 Author Share Posted June 30, 2015 Thanks all. It seems the reticle is more visible only when in a steep bombing dive. No target altitude set. Just plain CCIP bombing run with MK82. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildBillKelsoe Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 You need to set target altitude as follows: 1- lock target with tgp (tms forward long) 2- create markpoint while TGP as soi by dms right short. 3- check CDU markpoint page elevation number then cycle desired waypoint as target point 4- UFC/FN/3/Steerpoint/ enter markpoint altitude into steerpoint altitude If you roll in you must let the nose sink before pulling the stick. I'll post a video soon. Make it a habit to include tracks with your questions (dont change F-1 cameras) AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below.

Avio Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 Thanks a lot WillBill. I did steps 1 and 2 but thought altitude data would have been captured. Didn't know that I've to manually transfer that altitude data over to the steerpoint. Will give it a try. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterZelgadis Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Altitude Data in CCIP? The pipper only shows where the bomb would impact if you would press the button in this moment. Regardless of any target. If you fligh high and straight, the impact point will be under your nose, so you can't see it. You have to go lower, faster or steeper, or a combination of it.

WildBillKelsoe Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 It is applicable simply because also gun run with CCIP reticle/cross require accurate elevation data- DTS.
