    I am going to like this plane. Thanks for the knowledge. I bought the Viper on my as one of my first purchases in DCS with the first time 50% discount. I never used it & wondered if I should have even bought it. Now I figured I would deep dive into it and I am so glad I got it. It is badass plane. I remember the Vipers taking off in pairs all day long while I was deployed to Iraq, truly badass!

I've been putting off this model it's setting in my hanger until ED creates more systems but it looks like they are starting to get it up to speed. I know it takes a lot of time to create these videos and I hope you continue creating more, so when I pull the trigger to hope over to the F16 I have a one stop shop for learning.

  • @bartschoorl7077
    @bartschoorl7077 Рік тому

    When you were in boresight submode you were able to uncage a lock by the eclipse if im right the (hmcs). But when you uncage the lock. It looked kinda odd, by aft the lock the eclipse hmcs was turned off and it made the boresight submode lock only by the hud. So, how do you aft the lock by still keeping the eclipse (hmcs) ON to switch to another target? I really like your informative videos there so easy to follow. Keep it up!

    • @TrickerDCS
      @TrickerDCS  Рік тому

    • @TrickerDCS
      @TrickerDCS  3 роки тому

      Click A/A on the UFC to switch to AA and then click again to go to Nav. The way I do it is move the dogfight switch back to the center position.
      The center position on the switch is the default one with neither mode active, returning the Dogfight Switch to the center cancels either Dogfight Mode or MRM Mode and returns the jet to the state it was in when the switch was set to an override mode.
