Monitor guidance in picture
*Maneuverability will decrease when monitor zoom is toggled
Throttle lever:
-0.34: High speed 300m/s
-0.22: Cruise speed 200m/s
-0.12: Low speed 100m/s
-0.09: <60m/s *keeping around 0.09 will eventually cause stall
Press up arrow once for 0.2, press again for 0.3, manually push it to its limit -> 1 mach speed. Press down button once it will go back to 0.12, press down arrow again for stall speed, suitable for CAS or landing
Autopilot:
-Large keyboard for destination coordinate. Input ‘0’ means altitude hold mode only.
-Small keyboard for target altitude. The lowest altitude available is 5 meter. Input ‘0’ means hold current altitude.
Weapons:
Missiles:
-1. Turn AAM/ASM Arm switch or both switch on
-2. Check enemy distance, point at enemy
-3. Press 2 to fire missiles (for ASM you may need to lower your speed)
*HUD on left above shows state of missiles. When ASM Arm si on, press the button on HUD to switch the cameras on ASM Missiles
RAC and LACs:
-1. Check the monitor on the left. Weapons are ready by default. Press the buttons on monitor to switch ammo types.
-2. Make sure the landing gears are retracted. If it shows ‘G’ in the middle of screen, don’t fire, the bullets will hit the landing gear.
-3. Lower your speed. Press down arrow to lower the throttle lever to 0.12 (or 0.09)
-4. Press space to toggle monitor zoom
-5. When the yellow cross shows up (from ballistic calculator), point it at enemy, press 1 to fire
Other issues you may encounter and how to solve them:
-Canopy stuck: get off and get in the seat again may solve the problem
-Wings may jiggle in low physic mode
-Throttle lever doesn’t respond when pressing arrow buttons: manually pull the lever and it will recover
Hope you have fun with this vehicle!
