ARMA 3 Jet Flight School - From Noob To Pro In One Lesson 

I was using the R key. What’s the difference? I’m still trying to fully understand everything. I did a little live action CAS last night on our dedicated server and I was having trouble tracking targets on A2G. I think I need to fly further away and and come in from a high elevation diving towards them and use my air brake to slow my roll while approaching. That was my takeoff from the trouble I had

@@ylsgamingR key cycles all targetable objects, T key specifically locks the object you’re looking at. Helps prevent friendly fire in tense fast paced situations that you can’t cycle through all the targets individually if there’s a lot around.

@@Itskaty_ ohhh okay. I promise soon you’ll stop seeing the fireworks of my air assets blowing up above the battlefield due to frantically forgetting controls on my HOTAS lol

"Most people won’t know what the call signs are for weapon releases/shooting missiles or bombs so don’t worry about that too much." So you are saying that we should start making stuff up and try to pass it off as correct, right? See how ridiculous you can make the callouts before someone calls you out.

@@ylsgaming you probably know by now, but Ctrl+T locks the tgp camera in place, if it says AREA. if you aim it at a target and when it locks it will switch to POINT and track the target. I pretty much exclusively fly CAS , so im sure bombing runs on Jets are the same ^^

Oh man that would make things way easier to fly and spectate at the same time

It became clear after some more seat time haha

We host random air to air matches within our discord. Join the crew to get the info on when

Oh it must have somehow because I didn’t see it. Thanks for taking the time to moment again!

Thanks man! It was a lot of fun to learn the basics

Thank you for this info

When landing in the Black Wasp, there's also a helpful glide slope indicator for landing, it's the little black box poking up from your instrument cluster that has yellow circle, with red and green arrows above and below it. Regarding the bomb guidance, it finds its way to the target using the fins, so the adjustment to the laser guided target is only within reason, you still have to aim roughly in the direction of the target, not too far away that it can't reach, and not to close that it can't adjust its course in time and overshoots, it's fin assisted guidance, not magic. And the big circle while in targeting pod view is also not the predicted target of the bomb in dumb fire, that's the direction the nose is pointed, what you want to pay attention to is the crosshair below it, big circle for the bomb is only valid in the main HUD.

I’m glad to hear that! I love the air combat in arma. I strongly encourage you to check out my helicopter tutorial too. The guy that taught me in that video has lots of experience flying in real helicopters and was able to enlighten me within his lesson

@@ylsgaming Thats very encouraging that you have a guy on your side having real piloting skills teaching you how to fly. Its very difficult to get such guys these days ngl.

I’m running a 8 year old build on a gtx1060 and an i5 8600k. I did recently upgrade to 32gb of ram which helped a lot and I also run arms from a SSD. It’s a mediocre build but it runs arma quite nicely. However I was also playing arma on this build at around 30fps until I researched on youtube about how to optimize your graphics and get more fps. My fps went from 25-35ish to 60+

​@@ylsgaming Thanks for your reply man. And may I know what kind of flight stick did you use currently? Since in my country there are less people who like to play milsim game, flight stick like Thrustmaster, Logitech and VKB are a bit expensive here. So I hope an entry level flight stick like VKB Gladiator is enough for Arma and DCS. Sorry for asking a lot of question, and Thank you.

@@Ryan-op5fw I have no problem with someone asking questions! That’s what we base our whole discord community around. I use a Logitech saitek x52 flight stick and throttle. It’s a 10 year old joystick that I got second hand for quite cheap. It has made an excellent entry level HOTAS for me.

Yeah I was just renting haha

Basically lol. I did learn that doing air to ground is best from a higher altitude and slower speed so you have more time to line things up and get an accurate shot

@@ylsgaming Air to ground is easier done in jets like the Wipeout and Neophron, high altitude bombing when you're not dealing with fog is absolutely fine in the Black Wasp but ideally it's a really good air to air dogfighter with good ground attack, while the Wipeout is tailored for air to ground combat with only minimal air to air capabilites, it's much slower but that just makes it easier to target ground assets.

@@G1NZOU I seem to really favor air to air. I haven’t been able to master the air to ground
