Tregarth Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 In his YouTube "Case 1 Recovery" Wags somehow makes the desired course show in the DDI screen and CSEL appears in the OSI display. This helps him work out his position as he passes the carrier before he makes his descent. I have watched that YouTube countless times and I cannot see how the CSEl is set. Even in Chuck's F-18 Hornet Guide there aren't any instructions. Is there a step by step guide on how to do this, please? I have worked out how to use the ILS and TCN but not the CSEL. Thank you.

Harker Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Just click and hold the CRS switch for more than a second or so. Hold it until CSEL appears on the UFC.

jross194 Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Not sure if it's the official/published method but, after some quick experimentation I came up with this: hold the course select lever for a second or two; when "CSEL" pops up type in the desired course; click Enter. i6700k 4.4mhz, 32Gb, nVidia 1080, Odyssey+, CH Products, Derek Speare Designs button box, Bass shaker w/SimShaker For Aviators Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tregarth Posted July 5, 2020 Author Share Posted July 5, 2020 Thank you for this. I think he actually entered a course in the UFC display (340) and then made that appear in the DDI, how did he do that, please? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunny Clark Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Thank you for this. I think he actually entered a course in the UFC display (340) and then made that appear in the DDI, how did he do that, please? Thank you. Exactly as described above. Hold the Course Select switch (just above and to the right of the MPCD) in either direction for a second, and CSEL will appear in the UFC. Typing the desired course and hitting enter will cause the course to be set to that heading in the HSI. The set course line will appear relative to the beacon when TACAN is selected on the HSI page. 1 Oil In The Water Hornet Campaign.

jcenzano Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Just note that for the CRS line to be displayed, either Tacan or wpt must be boxed in the HSI Enviado desde mi H8324 mediante Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karpiyon Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 How to you show the course line again when after changing DDI page without changing the course? Once I change DDI page and 'box' the tacan again the course is not shown. If I press the course set know to show the course it will change it by a few deg as well. I only want to show it to the previous set course without effecting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only want to show it to the previous set course without effecting it. What I do is: 1) reselect TACAN 2) press the CRS switch ONCE (this will show the course line with a +/- 1 degree from the original course) 3) press the CRS switch ONCE the opposite of 2) (to counter the +/- 1 degree offset) I haven't found any other method yet...
