Thanks Matt, the tutorials are super helpful and encouraging. It won’t allow me to quit the game in frustration. Keep them coming, I know there’s plenty of folks doing tutorials but seems like yours are knowledgeable and easy to fallow. Even the small, important, detail are really clear. Was getting frustrated at GBUs not hitting my targets. After watching your video once, found out I’m not holding the laser trigger after release. 🤦 Thanks

I get frustrated with that too, and I've found it's not limited to Wags' tutorials, however. IT's very unfortunate for new DCS players (and ED) that don't have much time to waste on bad tutorials or poorly written manuals (which DCS is full of). I'm sure ED has lost a lot of business because of it. But back to the topic. Many KZbinrs, doing DCS tutorials, are far from knowing how to actually teach a subject, especially one as detailed as flying a simulator of a combat jet. I'm a professor (and do teach pedagogy seminars) and I've found that leaving out 'details' is one of the most common 'teaching' errors. That is to say, many people who are just beginning to teach leave out specific 'details' under the assumption that everyone knows it. They leave out such details, by mistake, simply because they have done that 'detail' so many times in their own work and experiences. As a result, this 'detail', in a way, has become second nature to them which, in turn, causes them to overlook it as a detail that still needs explanation. It's all in the details --not in this case, however.

Is it just me or whenever I follow a lot of these tutorials there’s SOMETHING that never works. I got right up to the point of firing the Mav but the thing won’t fire. I have every indication wags has in his video too. I tried pressing the weapon release many times but if I hold it down too long the LTDr stops losing and the mav gets the X through the box. Why can’t I ever get a tutorial to work perfectly for me ever!

I would like to share some info about bug I experienced. Well, I work a lot with the Mission Editor. When I open any mission I created before TGP release and replace for example Mk-82 with GBU-12, the laser guidance won't work at all. Everything is set up properly, I can designate the target, release bombs, but no guidance when I hold the trigger. SOLUTION: if you experience a bug like that, DELETE your Hornet flight, and add it again on the Mission Editor's map, and arm with GBU-12s. Now laser guidance should work well.

My LGBs are going way too long of the target. I put the TGP on the target, auto bomb selected, tdc depress to designate target location, run in and the auto release drops the bombs nearly right over the target. The bombs go way long and have no chance of acquiring the laser. The laser is firing no problem.

Damaged Edge after reading through the forums it appears to be a bug. Even though the tpod is supposed to be generating a target elevation, it is only grabbing the target location and then arbitrarily using a nearby waypoint’s set altitude as the target elevation. -No matter if wpdsg is selected. So in your case it can make sense that a nearby waypoint’s altitude is fairly close to the ground (~

I have a question. How do you slew the camera? I've tried the TDC Throttle grip and my camera will not slew whether by that analog control nor will it slew via the keyboard. Is this the same control that slews the target designator on the A-A radar? A-A mode works fine and in the Adjust controls it works fine (displays feedback). Is the camera caged? and if so what is the command to Cage/Uncage.

It's not gliding it all it's Free falling. Surface controls can do only as much but certainly not glide. In my understanding if you are dropping from 10 to fifteen thousand foot by the time 30 or 40 seconds has passed bomb travel right under you which after 40 seconds can be many miles depends on the speed that was initially used to drop it. I'm not an expert but it can be many miles.

I don't see why not. Since each bomb can be designated with it's own code, this should be possible.

I’m having nothing but problems with this. Sometimes getting the AUTO prompt, hold the release, looks like a good drop, get a TTI countdown to zero with the little green diamond on the target, but the AUTO doesn’t cross out and the bomb hasn’t left the aircraft. Other times it works ok. Other times the first one or two drops are perfect but subsequent drops are nowhere near the target and I can’t see anything. different.

I'm assuming the laser doesn't need alignment, correct? So a fast startup/scramble procedure will still work for anything non-GPS dependent...?
@gryphus-0171
@gryphus-0171 5 жыл бұрын
Correct, only JDAMs require a allignment procedure, this because they utilize gps system to guide then in free fall, where laser guided ones steer by the deflection on the nose seeker. As far i know of (which can be off), the tail fins are only for stabilizing the bomb in flight so it wont go flipping.
