​@@user-ro1gx7gb2e The majority of the video shows the WSO cockpit 👍

Good spot! Thank you, what a silly mistake :D The pod actually uses the angle on the other side (between the horizon line and the slant range) and hence sin is correct for what the pod computes internally. See i.imgur.com/fXiX6u0.png (the pod uses alpha not beta in that diagram)

When you hit the FREEZE button, the WRCS remembers your current aircraft coordinates at the time of hitting the button. Now, you can enter offset coordinates into the WRCS panel. Either manually or via using the radar offset cursor. Hit the INSERT button and the WRCS will interpret the entered offset data relative to the aircraft position when you hit FREEZE earlier. The resulting position will now me remembered as WRCS target. When the Pave Spike is in WRCS-Acquisiton mode (the 3-way switch on the panel), it will cue itself to said WRCS target.

I'm having the same issue. I think there are a number of other settings not mentioned. I believe you have to be in delivery mode > tgt find, also it looks like you have to activate half action on the hand control trigger. Still trying to find out why I'm also not getting the voice and the freeze button does not light either.

@@chillm2 Yes, the video assumes that you know the basics of the pod already. Check the linked manual or other videos on KZfaq. TGT FIND is the delivery mode used for the pod. It will also trigger Jester to ready up the pod. If you are the WSO, you don't need this to operate the pod. Half Action let's the pod enter and leave tracking mode. In the video you want to be in acquisition mode, the default. For this videos content, it's enough to turn on the pod, put it into WRCS ACQ mode and set the DSCG to display TV instead of Radar. At that point, the Pave Spike shows whatever is the current WRCS target.

Sure thing

You can already do the Offset stuff via the Bombing Tool. Temporary Freeze/Insert binds are available to the pilot with the next patch.

Yeah exactly. The system can be used for dumb bombs perfectly fine as well. In fact, if you happen to have a Pave Spike, I would generally prefer TGT FIND as it is just like a CCRP delivery in other planes. Point the pod somewhere, hold Bomb Button, follow the steering cues and wait for the release. Its so simple. And almost as previse as Dive Toss! It even allows you to do small loft deliveries out of the box by just flying a slight pitch up while you wait for the bombs to release. Can also be interesting to loft LGBs a bit further.

@@Zabuzard Hello, I have been trying this, but the precision is terrible. The bombs always fall to the side about 300 meters away, no matter what I do.

To the side? Sounds like either your INS is borked or you are not following the steering cues for lateral alignment. If it would be short/long I would suspect wrong drag coefficient for the given altitude, speed and bomb, but not if they hit to the sides

Zab is an HB dev - and their manual is pretty handy for some of these concepts, although I must admit hearing the dev explanation helps a lot :)

The manual kinda explains it, but falls a bit short on connecting the dots. Like, it says that WRCS acquisition mode shows the current WRCS target - but you would have to explore the WRCS chapter to learn how to set WRCS targets and probably need to be exposed to some real-pilot stories to get some of these ideas. Definitely would make sense to expand the Pave Spike manual chapter on this topic a bit 👍

@@Zabuzard having sections in the manual that actually explain the workflow for a particular system with a practical example in mind makes for a much more accessible way to explain the content. Also lets people refer to the training missions made and try the techniques explained out.

The controls are temporarily available for the pilot to bind as well, until Jester fully supports the pod. Right now, Jester sets up the pod for 12-VIS and, by clicking his context-action, he will enter or leave TRACK mode, where the stabilization will be executed. If you want to slew the pod further or start the laser, you would use the temporary binds for the Antenna Hand Controller. The Target Altitude can be set as Pilot via the Bombing Calculator tool.

Sir a second plane has hit the subscribe button

well, the crew chief wont be happy, but ive also crashed............

The vanilla Wipeout or a modded Wipeout? Try to remove all other mods for a moment and see if the issue still persists. If you located the offending mod, either take one of our support-mods for that mod to fix it (see the readme) or support for that mod has not been created yet. The mod is open-source at GitHub, feel free to fix it. The mod is right now without active author, I am not playing the game anymore.

@@Zabuzard i will try that thx And i use the default one

@@Zabuzard i tryed it without any mods installed and it sadly didn´t work. still thx for your afford

Yes. The video was full with YT annotations to explain how to do everything but YT annotations have been removed several years ago, unfortunately. The instructions are lost.

Sounds like you are overdoing it. You have to be very careful on your controls, the aircraft starts to shake if you demand too much of it. Also, maintain good speed, otherwise you stall constantly :)

@@Zabuzard maybe it is because I use my keyboard and mouse, it makes it difficult but when I fly the other free plane it works just fine and is easy to control I don't understand why

Did you release the brakes yet? Maybe tap them quickly. Also make sure to disengage the parking brake. Then go forward on the Prop Lever to give RPM and then forward on the MP Lever next to it to give Manifold Pressure.

@@Zabuzard but how do i release the brakes?

same with the impact sounds, they sound nothing like the video

I don't think he'll respond what do you need help with?

dont touch the bombfuse switch, let them in middle position. just use the weapon selector switch to the rockets pos. and select for auto or single. you need to press and hold the "weapon release switch" to fire them!

Thanks for the comment :) Unfortunately, I completely stopped developing the mod. It is open-source, feel free to edit it yourself (or find someone) though :)

Reaper tried it, turns out you just need to be A: behind the a-10 to hear impact and gun or b: get far away from the target area when faced towards the front. Or C: get a sound fix mod someone made. Hope it helps

@@edgardelacruz3021 Thanks for the reply, i knew about getting far or behind the A10 but i dont know of anyone Who made a fix for this

The mod will be present on all A-10 vehicles just by having it activated. So you dont need to do anything except placing yourself an A-10 :)

@@Zabuzard oh so it replaces the a 10?

@@battleminexl6145 No. It replaces the gun on all A-10s and A-164 Whipeout. One mission I would recommend downloading is the ECAS mission on the steam workshop

Thanks, unfortunately not, its a pitty...

Well damn..

Chris Snakeeyed305 this is a K14 the reticle is computer movable compensating the maneuvers it needs to be strait over the target to get a hit even in maneuvers
