Sounds like you missed!

it's a tricky one, so many variables. It helps to know your enemy and their relative performance differences. Do you have better SA? better sensors? better missiles? How do you maximise your advantages and minimise your drawbacks? You have the same weapon as the F-16 in a hornet, the AMRAAM. They do have an advantage with height and speed, so make sure you drop your fuel tanks and get supersonic as soon as you can. this usually means climbing to the high 20s at high subsonic, then diving through transonic, and climbing at +1.2 mach. If you really need to draw them in close then there's nothing like some mountains to hide behind. if they can threaten you with an AMRAAM, then you can threaten them with one, just not to the same level of threat. practice against AI with how hard you have to defend to trash a missile at a given distance, and at what range you have a high chance of death. Then this is your min abort range, or MAR. Never trespass the MAR if they can shoot at you

He should start his own podcast

Thanks for the kind words. Quite possibly, we're starting and improving as we go so I haven't looked into podcast platforms yet but it's on the agenda

Haha, well we won't hold ourselves to such high standards, so I expect so

Thanks for the kind words!

Thanks, glad you liked it

Glad to hear it! Have fun

You'll get there, fly on speed, fly the numbers, turn on time

CNATRA and a couple other docs yeah

Ha, right you are

Thanks Kelly!

Thanks. "Commencing" when you first start your approach, "check in" after the AI tells you to. "Platform" when you pass 5000ft. Call the ball at ¾nm. The super carrier manual should cover that I think

@@DCSWithLovo thank you. You're still active. Hope you've been well.

Very well thank you. I think the need to do/create something that I filled with video tutorials has since been filled with a training group in my dcs group. plus some great flying with more capable people

Yeah I tend to zoom in for a few seconds when I roll out into the groove to get the line up right. The course is BRC, which the ai will tell you if you do the comms, alternatively hit alt+f9 (I think) for the LSO view, which features the BRC on the screen

@@DCSWithLovo nice. Also do you use magnetic or true for f18? The true heading matches the f10 map.

I use magnetic. It's more commonly used other than the F10 map, in communications for example

@@DCSWithLovo ok I use f10 a lot and I draw lines and stuff to find the bearing so maybe true is good for me in that aspect. But I should change back to magnetic when doing carrier lands since the call put from mother is magnetic ?

Might be easier to mentally add or subtract MagVar when using F10. That's only like 5 numbers to remember if you have all the maps. I personally haven't found it too bad using F10 map and just rechecking my heading a few times as I approach. The lateral deviation from the mag-true error well reduce the closer you are when you take a bearing

You should check the manual for that type of info On the hornet HUD there's two little dashes that are 5° and 10° leading to the first big dash that is 15°. Then the big ones continue in 15° degree increments. So 30° and 45°

I include full length examples at the end. There are about 45 minutes of footage for a single Case II and a single Case III example

@@DCSWithLovo cool. by the way they have ACLS now. I have done it on CASE 1 before.

@@erfguuipo8084 they sure do! I may do an update at some point, but this tutorial is more about the procedure, the flying isnt too complex

@@DCSWithLovo good tutorial. Yes wheb you do acls please do one for case 1. Matt Wagner say it doesn't work for case 1 but I have activated it before so he's doesn't know it .

I wouldn't do a case 1 ACLS tutorial as it's not a realistic procedure. Plus you're only in the groove for about 45 seconds which is a short time to mess about with the ACLS buttons.

Thanks Brylinx

I think you have only about 90s of water. Don't use it any longer than you have to, like not at all when taking off from land. And you need to be very light for vertical landing don't forget

Thanks Cap!

Hi there! Not yet. working on a bombing tutorial right now but my free time has reduced, and I'm trying to shift to 3D animation so the going is slow

It’d be fantastic to see it come to life in a video. The paperwork is always pretty hard to imagine.

@@DCSWithLovo hey mate - how are ya? Any news on the case III? Who do you typically fly with? Fancy joining a Squad of harrier pilots?

Hey! I'm well thanks. Not much news. The group i fly with started doing more interesting stuff, and the day job got more intense; so the space in my life i was filling with video production has reduced a lot. I don't know if I'll have time to fly with your group, but I'm sure lurking won't hurt, feel free to send an invite

Thanks Jorge!

I'll see what I can do

@@DCSWithLovo that’d be awesome. Thanks

So I've "selected" a data link contact. You can hover the cursor over something to see that info, or hit step to cycle through all contacts

@@DCSWithLovo cool. I only knew the hovering method and missed the STEP option. Does it only work for datalink members or also for bandits?

It works for anything airborne on the sa page I believe. Bit of a pain if you have a lot of contacts

@@DCSWithLovo Thank you. I’ll try it

The Tarawa's comms are even more broken than the supercarrier's I think. We're all awaiting updates

@@DCSWithLovo Thank You!

ED has removed the error that tarawa had supercharger comms. Now it behaves like an airfield. I’ve tried reporting it on the forums multiple times but they don’t seem to care.

Thanks Alex!

The meaning is more important than the words. You'll likely end up with your own variations in your own group. Once you have a few friends used to doing these, whether you say "run up" or "run them up" or "ruuuuuuun up!" They'll know what you mean

Glad you found it useful! Cheers Netjun

Thanks!

Limits the number of radars it will display. Just a smaller number of priority radars. Useful when the airspace is busy

@@DCSWithLovo Thanks for the reply. I’m a professional rookie and been flying for about a year in the 18. Still learning lol

There's loads to learn. Keep having fun

Hard mode!

Great to know, thanks for the info!

Haha this is the life of someone like me, I could remake every video every 6 months with new stuff I've learnt or mistake I've made.

@@DCSWithLovo I'm sure that's true, but that's unecessary. I just like mention some quick corrections in the comments to help everyone. A quick correction in the description is all I would do. The production quality of this video was top notch. What did you use to create the radar displays?

@@mobius7089 (one of these days I'll reply with the right account) Thanks. To date I've done everything in After Effects and animated them in there. I'm working on moving most of my work to Blender now, but I havent released a video using that yet.

Thanks!

I think there's two ways, but the one I know is to press STEP until the desired data link aircraft is boxed

@@DCSWithLovo thx pilot

No probs, happy flying!
