33-DFTC Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 I'm not sure to get it. You're using the HSI to get your BE posit from the VTB ? What I do is placing one of my waypoint on the BE then, declaring this waypoint as the BE with the VTB function. Am I doing it wrong ? There are only two types of aircraft, fighters and targets. - Major Doyle "Wahoo" Nicholson, USMC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jojo Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 (edited) You need to have a waypoint on the BE. You select this WPT on the VTB to have radar cursor position from the the BE. But if you want to use air picture from the AWACS to point in the right direction, you need to be able to know your own position from the BE. 2 ways: - select BE WPT as DEST and read on IDN (HSI) with range and back of the double arrow to get bearing from the BE. - select BE WPT as PREP on PCN, select D/ RLT, and substrate 180° from RLT to get your bearing from BE (PCN gives bearing TO the BE). So you can have bearing distance on 2 waypoints at the same time. DEST on IDN and HUD. PREP on PCN. How you affect BE is up to you. But you can quickly cycle DEST waypoint with keyboard shortcuts. The real fighter has been upgraded with DEST +/- box on the left of the dashboard. So what sounds like gaming tweak is indeed realistic feature. Edited June 7, 2019 by jojo Mirage fanatic !

ZHeN Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Ok, then to know where are you other waypoints you need the D/RLT function on the PCN. to know where I am (and my targets) I have waypoints on VTB - those improve SA much more significantly than looking at D/RLT on PCN all the time [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D4n Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 yep, broken, had this issue at least once before but thought it would be fixed soon. Was wrong. Held down button, in singleplayer working fine, in Multiplayer wouldn't drop them, had them selected, master arm on, jettison cover open and jettison switch to the left.

Dagger71 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 What else are you carrying? IIRC you can only carry one other weapon type apart from the magics. If you are carrying more than one type of A/G ordinance it will not work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jojo Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 (edited) You shouldn't need to jettison Beluga while carrying Super 530D because you shouldn't load both in the first place :D Since it's avionics from the 80' try to imagine that your smartphone is more powerful than jet fighters avionics from this time era...

D4n Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I just wonder if it's even realistic than that in M-2000C BOTH the Belougas AND the 530s show up in the weapons panel... maybe that already is unrealistic??

Jowen G. Bruère-Dawson Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 It is like this in the real 2000C. It's a question of ''computer frame''. I don't know the real word in english but in french we call it ''trame informatique''. If I understood my instructors correctly, it's basically code lines with the ballistic informations needed to use a weapon. There are two weapons available in all ''frames'', those are the guns, and the Magic II. Besides Guns and Magic II, each weapon type have its own ''frame'', and only one frame can be loaded. Nobody was able to answer my question when I asked what will happen if we load 530 with bombs, because... they simply never tried it. I'm not a subject matter expert, if someone have other informations don't hesitate to correct me. I can be wrong, or have misunderstood what my instructors told me.
