Hey pilots! Tricker here and I want to welcome you to my channel on combat aviation. I'm a real world pilot in the Airbus 319/320/321 series and I enjoy DCS World, Falcon BMS, Falcon 4.0, IL-2 Sturmovik, X-plane 11, and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020.
If you want to fly WWII aircraft over Normandy and the English Channel, then DCS World WWII is for you and they have plenty of aircraft to choose from such as the BF-109, FW-190, Spitfire, P-47 Thunderbolt, and P-51 Mustang. If you enjoy modern aerial combat then you want to focus more on DCS World products such as the F-16, A-10C Warthog, AH-64D Apache, F-15, F-14, JF-17, SU-27, Mirage, Mig-29, F-18 Hornet, Mi-8, Mi-24 Hind, Uh-1 Huey, Ka-50, F-5, Mig-21, AV-8b Harrier, and the F-4 Phantom. Some of the mods that are out there for DCS World are the F-22 Raptor, SU-57, A-4 Skyhawk, Rafale, and Gripen.
I enjoy other games such as Total War, Battlefield, War Thunder, Escape from Tarkov, as well as Squad.

So glad someone is doing new videos on the Harrier. And such great content and presentation.

1:50 You can use LEFT ALT + LEFT MOUSE button on the F10 map. If you fly in OpenBeta, it will work. Also it will add the game in version 2.9 You can use the coordinates in this way.

[@sloppydog4831]

Cool. I didn't know one could use "mark" points, or its equivalent, in the Harrier. Very useful. Thanks.

[@TrickerDCS]

Glad it was helpful!

[@qthemerrybandofanons4481]

Dude thank you so much. Having had the Harrier since release it has been a LONG confusing road of procedures changing and being removed/added. If we did not have your channel people like me would still be lost in all of the changes.

[@lionelbowhunter468]

Very usefull and claer= perfect! I really hope the Harrier will shine more it deserves a high rank place in DCS. I bought it the day one and with the Viggen, it is my fav plane to fly with. Thx Tricker, love your content! Greetings from France^^

[@TrickerDCS]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Sirrah81]

Excellent refreshment course mate! Simple and to the point. Thanks!

[@DraxTheDestroyer]

That was very clear to understand, thanks!

[@TrickerDCS]

Great to hear!

[@ColonelAkirNakesh]

Great seeing your tutorials again!

[@Slinger1-1]

Miss your videos dude, don't listen to all these negative people in the comments 👍

[@TrickerDCS]

I appreciate that

[@jibcot8541]

Nice, I have never managed to get 4 Mavs off in one pass.

[@flightsimstuff5417]

Nice. DCS Scratch Pad is a dandy tool. Helps a lot in VR too.

[@Frindleeguy]

Have you seen the alt click feature DCS added on F10? I think it will help. Unfortunately it doesn't replace The Way app functionality tho :(

[@FJFuentesCO]

The thing I'm most interested in... How does your Harrier sound like that on a fly by? 😊. Mine sounds like a spaceship...

[@SsgtHolland]

Great stuff, Tricker! (as usual)

[@TrickerDCS]

You rock!

[@veteran35th]

Fun little plane. Trying to learn it myself. Great vid, as usual.

[@TrickerDCS]

Thanks 👍

[@jameswilliams1085]

Brilliant. Thank you.

[@_Zeicom_]

Thank you!!!

[@breaky011]

great job this was helpful

[@shuntera]

What does typing in '7 7' do that translates into Waypoint 4 - I couldn't follow that part.

[@Frindleeguy]

left alt + click on f10 map does something now I think.

[@Arma59]

Thanks for the video. What I'm noticing in your video is you have a high contrast on the EHSD page : map is dark and overlay is bright. How do you do that? In my case map is very bright and so is the overlay, I can't distinguish anything, especially with green overlay. Thank you.

[@Arma59]

Found it! That's the gain control on the MFD! I did not know you could change this. One click on the gain up or gain down does not seem to do anything, but when you hold the button down you see the contrast changing

[@TrickerDCS]

Glad you found it, it’s amazing when you turn the gain down and can read the text

[@soliitudegaming7275]

I am confused.... why do I have NONE of this stuff? I set up the sensor select controls and doing the same thing you did step by step just opens a weird TV tpod that is garbage. I can't actually control the FLIR at all. Its like im not able to control anything. Weird cuz I can set SOI on other aircraft, but it does NOT work on the harrier for me.

[@HRP_Pixy]

Interesting, but I’d rather use an apkws pod, with a wingman attacking 2 targets AT the same time

[@datboitex87]

im having issue when i select laser mav it clears my tpod

[@purplepenguin43]

has anyone figured out a fast way to change waypoints into TP's with the harrier after the waypoint logic update. you used to be able to simply designate the waypoint, then press TOO>Enter and it would save it waypoint increment TOO>Enter, and the TOO enter part still works but now you have to hold the ufc waypoint up/down, select waypoint from the upper panel, and then enter the waypoint number you want on the ufc (it defaults to 1)> Enter>Designate> repeat. the old flow was 3 buttons and you could just repeat them quickly to enter say 10 jdam TP's. the new flow is 7 + entering the next waypoint number on the UFC. does anyone else have a better way to do this?

[@alexshmalex]

Silly question maybe but why do you have to press 77 ENT first when entering the coordinates?

[@TrickerDCS]

Creates the next available waypoint for you

[@alexshmalex]

@@TrickerDCSThank you! Great video btw, super helpful.

[@wraith444]

I've been trying to break back into the harrier again lately and I keep running into some weird behaviors... The biggest thing once noticed is that switching to/from the TGP HOTAS mode will deselect mavericks and change the JDAM fuzing and laser to Safe. Is that normal?

[@TrickerDCS]

I know the behavior changed if you go master arm off the laser will turn off automatically now.

[@stalhuth]

how do you get all that full description in the DCS Sctatchpad? I only get L/L but not the rest that you show in the video

[@TrickerDCS]

When you click L/L it fills up the box with all the info you need wherever the white circle is located.

[@rmack9226]

ok, was that TOO button always there or is that recent?

[@TrickerDCS]

It’s always been there but just maybe changed functionality about a year ago

[@rmack9226]

@@TrickerDCS mind blown

[@hernzo9798]

How do I go to WP mode after all this its always stuck in TOO mode 😅

[@anynameuse]

WI long, then click WYPT on ODU, and simply cycle waypoints using WI. If you want to get back to TP, same procedure: WI long, click TGTP on ODU and cycle using WI.

[@hernzo9798]

@@anynameuse ah kay thanks dude couldn’t go back to NAV mode to setup another WP point to TOO another target area.

[@nyandyn]

Looks like the targeting pod angle pointer is stil Razbamboozled.

[@TrickerDCS]

Just a tad

[@samueljohnson4358]

Why do you hit enter 77 when adding a WP?

[@TrickerDCS]

As long as you enter a waypoint number higher than waypoints you have in the aircraft, it will create the next waypoint for you. 77 is just easy because its a high number and close to the enter button.

[@skorpa1798]

Bruh I’ve been using scratch pad forever and manually writing my cords.

[@TrickerDCS]
