    Going over binding the controls and what controls you'll be using is an absolutely key segment most tutorials are missing.

    This is one of the clearest tutorials I have found. Grim Reapers has a load of tutorials and is great channel, but he tends to go through everything sequentially in the interface - this approach is almost impossible to follow if you don't know it to start with.

    Hello, you made a great job with this tutorial but i have some trouble to do some of the things explained here in my F16.
    I can't make multiple target as you show it to us. I aim at the target, push DMS right then STP button, do the same for second and third target. The problem is, when i do the same on the second target, the TGP don't came back to the first target, it goes on the ground, some meters away from second target.
    In your video, you say "aim at it, edit, then push DMS right and STP button" (if i hear correctly). How do you "edit"? I can't see where you explain that in the vid.
    Also, the button "STP" appear only in NAV mode, it does not work in AG mode.
    Thank you.

    Really good tutorial, thanks for the effort. Would you say the TMS switch or DMS switch is more important? Just so I know which to bind to an easy to reach switch and the other to a slightly less convenient one.

    • @keithbriscoe99
      @keithbriscoe99 Год назад

      TMS for sure - it is what you're using to direct all the different sensors. You use all 4 directions for both A-G and A-A. DMS primarily selects which screen you want to interact with and changes screens. There's more to DMS but answering your question... clearly make TMS the most accessible if you have to choose. Assume you are using T16000M stick! When I had that, the thumb on stick was TMS. I assigned DMS to one of the throttle thumb hats.

      Mambo, what's the correct lasing time to start lasing with the GBU-24? GBU 12 and 10s are 8-15 sec until impact via USAF manuals. I ask bc when u Lase early the trajectory changes with GBU and could cause issues...

    • @MamboDCS
      @MamboDCS  2 года назад +1

      I don't have the exact time, but I know for fact that it's more than the GBU-10 and 12. And I've heard real pilots mention that it's a longer time.
      But the exact number might be classified, I'm not sure.
      To play it safe, I recommend doing so shortly after dropping the bomb.
      The GBU-24 is a lot smarter than the Paveway IIs, so that probably helps it.

      First check that your controls setup is done correctly as shown in the video. Also make sure you've SOI'ed the screen the TGP is on and then try moving it around. If that doesn't work try pressing TMS Right while the screen the TGP is on is SOI'ed to put the TGP into area track and then try moving it. Let me know how it goes :)

  • @baronvonrichthofen2021
    @baronvonrichthofen2021 Год назад

    How do I know the difference between sp-sensor point and sp-snow plow? In fact, it’s a bit confusing. It starts with saying CZ is centre zero and takes you to bore sight/straight ahead. Then it says so is sensor point, which is whatever sensor is being used, usually waypoint. Then it says CZ takes you to the waypoint selected. Then it says when you press CZ a new button sp (aka sensor point, which was already there) appears called snow plow. So now sensor point is snow plow. So I’m confused if sp is sensor point or snow plow. I’m sure the designers of the f-16 would not confuse the pilot by having a control that is on the same location and with the same identifier. In fact, this is a primary handling requirement in aviation.

    Would be cool to have a resolution for that, maybe im using the TGP wrong.
