Great tutorial bud. I normally watch Grim Reapers but sometimes he assumes we know more than we do and talks through things way too fast. This was perfect
The maverick is the weapon that I've found to have the biggest disparity between understanding the system and being able to implement it in a mission scenario. The TGP should make acquisition easier but for CAS I think VIS and BORE are the better options to lock up and fire without much fuss.
I've watched so many tutorial videos and your series of videos are so easy to follow! First off thank you for taking the time to do these, secondly would you be available for a live group tutorial session for a recording and/or stream? We would love to have you .
I'm having a mare with this and its driving me mad. If I TMS up and don't get a lock in VIS mode, I cant TMS down to reset and then TMS to re-attempt the lock, the TMS up switch on subsequent attempts either just wont lock or switches my F16 to A-A mode. Its driving me mad because sometimes I get a missile off no probs, but then the above behaviour kicks in when Im doing the exact same sequence of events.
I've not experienced this. Could you have some conflicting control bindings or an 8 way instead of 4 way hat set for the TWS with some diagonal bindings?
@@deephack it's a 4-way hat with a press button as well. The press button is dogfight mode but the way I can replicate this fault almost certainly rules out user error. First missile always locks and fires normally, which wouldn't be expected if it was a random user error. I might have to record it or put my stick telemetry up while playong to investigate further, but I need to tackle it again when I'm not tired 😄 FWIW, I'm using a virpil constellation alpha.
I am able to follow all the instructions in the f16 maverick training mission but when I go to an online server and do everything the same I am unable to release the maverick. I am locking on within 7nm its successfully handing off from the pod to the missile. But the missile will never release for me.

Awesome! Your videos are really good. I am finally getting a much better understanding of how to do things in my F-16. Thank you.
Really enjoying your videos. I am learning a lot about the F-16.
Thanks for making these videos!
Lovely tutorial, Deephack!
Very well done. Looking forward to follow ups!
Great video. Thank you very much for all your tutorials. Very much appreciated.

Combined with the HMCS you can quickly acquire targets visually.
thanks for sharing. awesome review.
Please do this with the T Pod.... Great videos as always. Thank you sir.
Thanks, will do. Next video is guns and rockets and then we move right on to the TGP.

Probably not free for that kind of thing right now as the mission and training nights with the VAF take up a lot of my time. That and this channel :-)
thanks
Ok watching now
The maverick now needs a bore sight alignment for the targeting pod is there any way this can be done automatically?
Not if you cold start, if you would rather not do it then either hot start on the ground or air start the jet.
@@deephack It's seems you have to do it even if you hot start on the ground?
@@ainsleydobbin290 Ah okay, that does seem a little odd. Might be worth a bug report.

If you could share any thoughts or opinions it would be greatly appreciated
Hard to say without knowing what you are doing exactly. Feel free to share a video or track file. Otherwise might be best to post in the ED forums.
Would be good to add timestamps .easier to navigate as it's not a one time watch and forget
