Lee1 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Whenever I use Maverick in the "slave to TGP" function I get a launch inhibit, no tracking solution message on the MAV MFD. Doesn't happen when I drive the MAV cursor to SPI I made and launch. Any ideas please? Thanks Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't happen when I drive the MAV cursor to SPI I made and launch. Any ideas please? Thanks Lee The member above is correct. After slaving the maverick to generated SPI, with maverick SOI you need to TMSFS (forward short) to attempt a valid lock. There are times where the maverick might not be able to distinguish enough contrast and display this message as well - but give the advice above a go and let us know if you have resolved the issue. It can be a good learning lesson for others and not just you if you share the successful employment with the new advice.

Emmy Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Also, be sure the cursor for the Maverick is within the "Key Hole" so you are inside proper firing parameters.

Lee1 Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 Nope. Mav cross hairs slave to TGP but still launch inhibit. Doesn't inhibit when I do it manually. Will keep trying. Gonna have a look at it in Open Beta see if it works there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raptor05121 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I'm new to the A-10C II and I was having this issue as well, albeit to my own fault, I wasn't doing TMS up short TGP TMS Up Long to SPI. China up long to slave. Coolie left long to select MAV. TMS Up short to lock.

Gonna have a look at it in Open Beta see if it works there. With MAV SOI are you depressing TMS FORWARD SHORT after the maverick has slaved to the SPI? Within LAR (reference range staple)? I employed 10 mavericks (all G variants), across 5 flights today with zero issues - slaving the Maverick seeker head to SPI each time.

Lee1 Posted November 22, 2020 Author Share Posted November 22, 2020 ZIptie, Yes. I'm sure that's what I'm doing. Will have another go and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziptie Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 ZIptie, Yes. I'm sure that's what I'm doing. Will have another go and see. Also, which maverick are you using? If you are doing the steps above, and are still getting the launch inhibit warning, make sure you haven't selected a TGM variant, otherwise they will never leave the rail (it's a training variant).

Lee1 Posted November 23, 2020 Author Share Posted November 23, 2020 All sorted now thanks for the help and advice. I was clearly missing a step although can't put my finger on which one. Probably not making MAv page SOI. It all works as advertised now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
