flo57100 Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 (edited) Hello there ! After the discovery of JDAMS (thank you Razbam for those weapons :thumbup:), I tried to: - Find something to spot/kill with TPOD - Hold stick increment waypoint button for more than 1 second. I saw that I have menus appearing on the ODU leaving me the possibility to create waypoint/markpoints/targetpoints where I am currently looking at, and I have 0 appearing on the UFC screen, probably to give a number to this point (as I would do to create a waypoint via EHSD data page). But when I try to assign a number to it, nothing is created, no waypoint, markpoint nor targetpoint (no jdam loaded for this trial). Do I do something wrong, or is this part of navigation system is still missing ? If it is the case, please RAZBAM, give us the possibility to create custom points with the TPOD, we all know you can do it and we are all counting on you :thumbup: Edited January 10, 2020 by flo57100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kengou Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 I don't know that this system is implemented yet. I haven't heard anything about it. But doesn't WYPT increment create a target point at that location using WYPT 0, which can be cycled to like any WYPT? If that works, then there is the ability to make at least one saved target point.

shagrat Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Holding WPT increment, already creates WP 0 which is transferred to the JDAM currently selected. It is explained in Razbams Pocket Guide and in Chuck's Guide (recently updated). The later is easier to understand...

flo57100 Posted January 11, 2020 Author Share Posted January 11, 2020 (edited) Yes, I got for JDAMs in TOO mod, but what I am talking about is possibilities potentially given by menus appearing on ODU when you spot something with TPOD and press and hold wpt increment, even with no JDAM under your wings Edited January 11, 2020 by flo57100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Orso Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 I'm not sure what you are trying to do, but IIUC you want to save your marked target to the board computer to be called up later. I've asked this once before and IIRC it's not currently implemented. As long as you don't slew the target carrot away from it's current position it should stay put, or at least very close (why it sometimes wanders, I have no idea). Is this what you are asking?

flo57100 Posted January 12, 2020 Author Share Posted January 12, 2020 That's exactly what I am talking about, saving different waypoints/markpoints/targetpoints in INS to be recalled later and quickly looked at with TPOD slave feature Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LastRifleRound Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 You can upload the target data to the CAS page from the F10 map, set them as target points. Those points can now be cycled through just like any other waypoint on the EHSD, and therefore the TPOD can be slewed to it. As far as making markpoints with the TPOD for later reference, that has yet to implemented. Only fly over markpoints are currently available.

ResonantCard1 Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 If I create a TOO flyover point to use with JDAMs, do I have to press WPT increment for more than 1s too to upload the point to the JDAM? Also what's the best method of accurately placing flyover points?

LastRifleRound Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 yes, you always have to select a waypoint, then hold waypoint increment to use a TOO point. Most accurate way to place a flyover point is to be low. I believe in real life the only way a Harrier can designate a TOO point is with the TPOD.

Most accurate way to place a flyover point is to be low. I believe in real life the only way a Harrier can designate a TOO point is with the TPOD. TOO is function of the radar altimeter, it will be used to designate a markpoint exactly below aircraft longitude and latitude position on ground using the radar altimeter ranging. limitation is +/- 45° roll and pitch for radar altimeter and below 5000 ft from ground to be able range below aircraft correctly. Pressing TOO will designate that point on ground. TPOD aint required at all to operate TOO. i7-8700k, 32GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 2x 2080S SLI 8GB, Oculus Rift S. i7-8700k, 16GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 1080Ti 11GB, 27" 4K, 65" HDR 4K.
