Check comments for a checklist I typed out, BUT I recommend using the BMS F16 checklist you can find in your installation folder. BMS Falcon 4.37. Quick and simplified start-up tutorial for the F-16.

I don't know what 3/4 of this means but I guess it's a start. :D Thanks for the list! Problem is that you need the kb from time to time as it seems. I'm using VR so that's a bit complicated. Any tips on that topic? Like how to communicate with the ground crew in VR without using the keyboard?

I've played the first Falcon on Atari Ste and then Falcon Allied Force and then BMS 4.32 for years... I was dreaming to have it in VR and now it's a reality!! I was never able to play DCS since there was no dynamic campain. I'm so rusty I will have to relearn almost everything! Thank you for your video. Fly safe. :)

@effsixteenblock50 Жыл бұрын

Don't sweat it man! I was (am?) in the same boat as you, coming over from Allied Force. Having to relearn everything is a little frustrating but it's just repetition. The problem with the ramp start in the docs is that every step also contains lots of explanation & advice, which is great but I decided to make a some cheat sheets where I omitted all that stuff and just wrote down the actual steps and omitted the commentary. Helped a lot. One thing to really pay attention to at ramp start: Once you've hit the throttle detent and the jet is spooling up, pay attention to those gauges! The FTIT (temp) should slowly rise and then fall back down to idle operating temperature, around 500. A couple of days ago, I wasn't paying close enough attention and experienced a "hot" start - aircraft was on fire & smoking like crazy. Good luck & have fun!

A benefit of leaving the DED on the INS page during taxi like you did is that it shows your ground speed in the lower right ("G/S")

When do you bring RDR out of standby? After t/o? Does it matter if I engage it on the ground for game purposes?

That is the Radar Altimeter switch, its not required at all but can be useful when flying low.

Hey sorry for bothering, I've followed all the steps but when I increase the HMCS to full nothing shows up (I tried bringing down the visor but nothing happened)

@dualaccumulator 10 ай бұрын

The visor has nothing to do with HMCS in the game. Hold DMS down long to toggle the HMCS

And in the real world, the trend is toward reducing task loading on the pilot, with more and more aircraft functions being handled by automatic systems. The next gen fighter will probably have a START button, a STOP button, and be simplified to the point of stupidity. AI will handle so much of the rest.

This is a more in-depth cold start compared to DCS

Only a few steps. More of which will be added in DCS. DCS looks much better though.

Yes and he skipped many of the diagnostic tests that BMS has included in the ramp start. He skipped them because they're mostly eye-candy and not really necessary. They ARE done in the jet IRL every time, except when being scrambled to intercept....uh...balloons & stuff like that. :)

@@effsixteenblock50 Small correction, every test I've skipped isn't required in the game, the F16 will function normally without any additional tests 😉

@@dualaccumulator Right. That's what I meant when I said "they're mostly eye candy". They don't affect the game mechanics at all.
