nose align

ok, while I'm enjoying flying this I seem to be having a problem on one of the tutorials.

while using the headset marker and the follow target switch for the copter, the first time it all goes fine target and helicopter nose align in the 2 circles and I get a shot off.

now when I use the same procedure on the 2nd truck, my nose is always about an inch to the left of my target reticule, and never aligns? hope I explained this ok, not familiar with all the terms yet :)

thanks for your time n patience

That's pretty normal. The Auto-Turn-To-Target more or less aligns the helicopter's center line with the target. But the Vikhrs sit on pylons out on the stub wings, and they're fired left/right/left/right and so on and so forth.

You just have to kick in a little bit of pedal to align the reticle with the target, if it isn't aligned on its own, in order to achieve launch authority.

ah thank you, that's what I was doing. but thought I was doing it wrong, cheers a lot :)
