You doing better today CAP? Hope all is well.

[@grimreapers]

Sadly no but determined to get these Viper vids done! xx

[@DIY-V12]

CAP & GR, your dedication to getting accurate, useful info out to the community is greatly appreciated. Man you guys work fast.

[@irememberjeepz]

Cap, you waste no time getting these fantastic tutorials out. Cheers! Keep up the great work, the community loves you gentlemen.

The Stampy of DCS

[@lucaswoods1155]

Omg nuclear consent it would be legit to have the F-16 nuclear capable

[@dampsockaccountnotdamp2395]

I am appreciate symology are explanate

[@Superstarent]

For the record if you want to use all the function in the falcon just cross over to bms 4.34

[@grimreapers]

so is this plane called "falcon" or "viper"? so confused.

[@Superstarent]

@@grimreapers both

[@Superstarent]

@G E T R E K T 😂😂 buy a new PC I build them also I have DCS but it's not touching bms. Only thing dcs has is graphics

[@AdxMan86]

Question. On 5:48 he says that the 170 is berrying and 062 is the distance to the bullseye. But under the altitude its written B005.9 which means 5.9 distance. Also can see on the HUD that the berrying is 250 degree..... How there is this conflict ? I think its a mistake.... I think the 170 062 is 6 number coordinates of the map.

[@GreyMaulkin]

The B005.9 is your range to the waypoint in a straight line The one mistake I think he made was by saying 170 062 is the bearing and range *to* bullseye but in fact I think it is the bearing *from* bullseye. So in other words to intercept bullseye you would need to fly 350 degrees for 62 nm. The idea behind it is to be able to report your position in relation to bullseye to others so they know where you are.

[@bryanbishop2377]

The radar altimeter penetrates the water abit. It isn't perfectly accurate over water...

[@milkovivaldi]

If you move real HOTAS, virtual HOTAS also moves?

[@grimreapers]

yes

[@OBOGS]

I don't know how I could even take of in a low fidelity f-15 without you guys, thanks Cap and RC!

[@Tango-17]

By pushing throttle forward and pulling stick back🫡👌

[@syed7912]

Hey guys please help me. Why does the f16 and other plane show line. A continuous green line right in the centre of the HUD. It usually follows the a plane's direction like gps lines when driving a car

[@GeorgeGoosen]

Thanks CAP, holding my breath for the weapons videos

[@nightman7263]

Today I saw LOW besides the Flight Path Marker. What does it mean? What is LOW? It appears even if everything is full!

[@snack8ar]

Under my AL 500 none of my navigation info shows up?

[@Vrellord]

It appears that only steer points added in the mission editor will work atm. You will not get nav info with manually entered points.

[@johnnyfisalive]

which is easier to fly the f18 or f16 I'm uncertain which one to get for dcs

[@grimreapers]

Generally F16 a little simpler.

[@johnnyfisalive]

@@grimreapers also i have vive cosmos vr it doesn't function properly when i play tutorial why is that? can i use vr headset and h.o.t.a.s. at same time playing dcs I'm new to this stuff

[@HeinHtet-rb7by]

Most of the HUD control panel switchs still doesn't work. 2021 June.

[@DIY-V12]

Just watch out for the light poles......

[@michaelscott1199]

Great info and well presented gentlemen😎👍 This is by far my most anticipated MAC release from DCS.

[@sentinal-1-197]

when u say seteering pont u mean way point right i think it is just wanna make sure

[@grimreapers]

same thing yeh

[@grimreapers]

USAF call them Steer Point Navy call then Waypoint, although there seems to be some crossover

[@svmik]

Doesn't radar and barometric altitude switch automatically when it's set to ALT RADAR (like in the Hornet)?

[@grimreapers]

that would make sense

[@octobias6705]

i thought AOA was the angle of the wind that hit the aiplane?

[@grimreapers]

yes same thing

[@octobias6705]

@@grimreapers oh ok thanks :)

Does anyone know how to change the radio altimeter warning height yet?

Hey cap I just want to say I love all the work you do, the effort you put into the grim reaper is impressive and inspiring. Keep it up chief!!

[@lharrobang]

Thankyou for the hard work on these videos

[@Chris-sx2ow]

is it possible to change color of that hud? i love dcs but having problems reading that color, my colorvision is bad with some colors

[@grimreapers]

Not that I know of

[@Virtch]

can someone tell me how to turn on the hud w/o auto start? can’t figure it out and the manual isn’t working.

[@NightshadeX85]

left scroller I think in the DED , it's one of the scrollers on the DED in any case .

Excellent tutorial. Very well explained and paced.

Thanks again. Great Video.

Cant wait to buy and fly ! Thanks for the info.

[@exiletsj2570]

Cheers cap.

[@lasselahti4056]

Nice one. I did not know about "milage" system of ED. Just bought f-16 basically with miles, as much as one can put on it, as "miles". Now its AGAIN 2 months of GR videos :D (which is not a bad thing at all..). New Hotas. New plane. No life.

[@jarlevanlandeghem8595]

GR is there a possibility to set your parameters in metric (km'h,m,km)

[@grimreapers]

hmm dont think so.

[@jarlevanlandeghem8595]

Grim Reapers ok

[@therealtjpek]

I'm super late, but if anyone finds this comment, the units used are dependent on the aircraft. Russians usually use metric, american use imperial, for others it depends. For example the french mirage uses imperial for navigation, but waypoint offset and bomb spacing is set in metric

[@jarlevanlandeghem8595]

Just got the F-16 and these tutorials are, as always, very useful for a little nighttime viewing before I hop in and get serious tomorrow. Not much is coming back from Falcon 3.0 when I was really young and 4.0 when I was a teenager ha ha

[@Daisudori]

anyone else have trouble trimming wings level after ordnance drop? its always drifitng a tiny bit right or left, quite annoying..

[@VertoxEffect]

That would be because your center of gravity changes

[@VertoxEffect]

@G E T R E K T I am confused on why you replied to me 2 years later with that, it’s literally due to what I just said.

[@slowbaruu22]

Whenever I startup the F16c it makes and extremely loud static sound and it doesn't stop I need help PLEASE

[@EazyeSAE]

To the right of the throttle are two knobs for Comm 1 and Comm 2. These will be in the off position during a cold start. Turn both of these to the SQL position to get squelch.

[@slowbaruu22]

@@EazyeSAE oml thank you

[@preamp51]

Before finding out what the hiss was I assumed a bug in the engine sound...😄. Finding the correct kknobs and settings for this was soooo relaxing!

[@uriba107]

Why bother doing any content for this in baked status of the module?

[@grimreapers]

I'm just doing what players request of me.

[@uriba107]

@@grimreapers I figured that much. However, considering the state of everything, so much will change in the few months to come, that it seems like a lot or updating work for you. Regardless, keep up the good work!

Dang, it’s been three years and the f-16c still isn’t finished. Are they still working on it?

No Indicated Air Speed?

[@therealtjpek]

The airspeed displayed on the hud is IAS, you can switch it to True speed or ground speed by using a switch on the right hand panel

[@iuli72an1]

Excellent content! Marvelous and very educational. ❤

[@hannesorisson1200]

7 miles or km? Does the us armedforces not usekm for distance?

[@grimreapers]

yes but airforce use nautical miles

[@hannesorisson1200]

Ja ok thanks :)

[@hannesorisson1200]

@G E T R E K T US Military uses metric system. “The U.S. military uses metric measurements extensively to ensure interoperability with allied forces, particularly NATO Standardization Agreements (STANAG). Ground forces have measured distances in "klicks", slang for kilometers, since 1918. Most military firearms are measured in metric units, beginning with the M-14 which was introduced in 1957, although there are a few legacy exceptions, such as .50-caliber guns.” Also google history of metrex system and USA.

[@dubstepmachine4430]

being first is a beautiful feeling knowing that im dedicated to watching you guys XD

can i turn it in to foocking metric?

[@Tango-17]

Why would you wanna do that

[@arnaldogonzalez1678]

I hope I remember this by the time I join the Air Force

[@TheDegenerateLord]

i want to start by telling you that your doing gods work with your dcs tuts. However, I always prefer other youtubers tutorials when learning most planes because of the way you refuse to talk about things that you say you covered in other videos. I'm not sure if you do it because you think it's better way to learn or you just really hate having to say things more then once it's your pet peeve or something, but all it's doing is making your lessons incomplete. this video for example. I started watching it so i could learn how to read the hud, in general, but more specifically how to read the missile launch range parameters and unfortunate for me you just ignored the entire part of that hud symbology and told me that i would have to watch a whole other video your super vague about with out a link or even the tittle of the video. I know having to repeat the same information more then once is annoying, but that's show biz baby! lol I feel like presenting your viewers with complete stand alone tutorials that covers everything far outweighs any inconvenience having to explain the hud symbology that deals with weapons again. I think most viewers who start watching a tutorial about the hud would expect to learn about the entire thing. i get so frustrated everytime i hear you say "but i won't talk about that in this video" seems like it's always exactly what i started watching the video for in the first place. I swear if it wasn't for that i wouldn't know who a lot of these other dcs tut creators are. sorry for the long comment, but i know you really care about making great tuts that really help people learn this complicated shit. You essentially wrote an entire textbook on dcs moduals. So I felt i should share why prefer other youtubers videos to learn from. I actually use your playlists as a reference as to what i need to learn and then watch other tutorials just because of that thing you do. still watch your eventually tho. cause no one is more informative then cap. Cap just particular about how he shares it! which is cool btw

[@erinaisshu]

GR probably thinks that you watch the tutorials in one go. I do that and I never had the problems you mentioned.
