Arink429 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 HI. They does not illuminate over water, land only. Also HOT is set at 3,000 feet and it fires at 7,000. Do I something wrong or is that another issue? I attach track. Thank you. Antonio.

Foka Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 If you could just RTFM. Page 557 Height Over Target (HOT). This setting allows you to enter the altitude in feet that the flare will be at when at its mid-burn point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I read it, but even introducing a low value (1,400 feet) the flare starts firing at the same height, not at 2,800'. It seems that the rocket flies 15-17 seconds always and then ignites. But this was a secondary issue and deserves another post. I should post here concerning the tittle only. No flare light over water.

Foka Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 As you can imagine, if the HOT is in mid burn it has some lower limit sa the flare burns stright to the ground. so probably ~3000 ft is minimal value to not burn on the ground. I don't know if it's as IRL or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northstar98 Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 (edited) I just did some testing, it seems when you first save and activate the profile, it reverts back to 0, however when you change the settings again it updates properly (a bug in and of itself?). But yes, the flare should illuminate over water, and it doesn't.
