Litening pod issue


Pello86

Recommended Posts

Hi guys I’m currently practising how to fire laser guided Air Ground weapons and I’m struggling with the the Target Designator on the pod. It seems to have a mind of its own. When I move the TDC to fire a maverick it doesn’t stop when I release the switch on my HOTAS. Has anyone else encountered this problem. What would be the best solution for me to get the TDC front and centre of the HUD. Thanks in advance

I’m in the F18. When I press cage uncage to bore sight it, it doesn’t. It just says LST.

I have tried the default keyboard key C as well and ensured master arm is on. Still the same issue the crosshairs go big and the letters LST are displayed. Could it be a bug? I am using VR.

Sounds like a sensor control issue. There are 3 options on the sensor control right position . Watch a YouTube video from GazAce. He has awesome tutorials on using the pod and how to lock targets.

Im confused of what are you trying to move with TDC, the how to is:

 

1. You search for a target slewing the TGP with TDC

2. Once you found the target you push TDC depress to mark the point has target

3. Select the Maverick MFD with the croshair

4. Once in range you push uncage and the cross on the center of the Maverick will move it to the target

5. Push the release weapon button to fire the laser, once the Maverick found it the cross will change to a square

6. Push again the release weapon to launch the Maverick

 

Remember:

 

1. To match the láser code of the Maverick with the one on the TGP

2. Make sure the laser are armed

3. Point your velocity vector near the target to allow the Maverick to find the laser

4. To uncage the Maverick you must select his MFD

 

You dont have to use TDC on Maverick, just in TGP

I believe it changed. Now to switch between snowplow and VV slave you double press the NWS/Undesignate button.

Cage/uncage switches to LSS. This is correct and intended behaviour. Use NWS to toggle between Snowplough / VVSLV

So sorry if I sound confusing guys. I am trying to search for targets with the TGP and I want the TDC pointing forward of the nose. I am trying to get the TDC front and centre but I am really struggling. When I click the cage uncage button it goes to the LST screen on the TGP and it doesn’t bore sight the TDC
