How to return sidewinder to seek mode


NightstalkerNOR

Recommended Posts

The sidewinder seeker is locked to the cross in the upper part of the HUD. I cannot "uncage" it so that it seeks in a 8-figure. What is the key-binding for uncaging this?

 

It happened after fiddling around with the PAL/VSL-Hi/-LO settings

 

Have you tried the Cage/SEAM button?

I dont know the KB from memory, it's mapped to the throttle (red pinky pushbutton on the Warthog by default)

Yes, that doesn't work. Still in locked position

 

You are in "Boresight Mode" and wish to select "Boresight SCAN Mode":

 

- at the ACM panel, push the Norm / BRST button (n. 9 at picture);

- so that "it seeks a 8-figure", it has to be in the mode I mentioned above; you only "uncage" after this.

 

Also with the next update:

 

- it should be possible to "uncage" even in "Boresight Mode";

- the "8-figure" scan pattern motion will not be visually featured at the HUD anymore.

Thank you for the reply :)
