How is this system supposed to work?" This video made things way clearer. Thanks a lot!

Matt is great at creating mystery when he interacts with the end user. He understands that a lot of us value the "study sim" aspect... I think it's because he does too. He always demystifies the subject eventually. His rocket vid had its intended effect on me, like when he left CCIP out of his first vids on the Warthog back in the day. I thought "woah, I've got a lot to learn" and I was excited. He's like a good DM hehe.

So my understanding is that the difference from CCIP is that you're aligning the I-beam purely with other symbology in the cockpit as opposed to a target outside, and that it works because that other symbology has itself first been lined up with a target.

Always love the whiteboard, thanks Casmo! Is it fair to say that the I-beam just has to be solid and azimuth centered, either with the LOS or the cued LOS? And does that mean that when you use the nav method for distance, you don't use the LOS to aim but just line up the I-beam with the cued LOS?

@tomshackell
@tomshackell 2 года назад
"And does that mean that when you use the nav method for distance, you don't use the LOS to aim but just line up the I-beam with the cued LOS?" I would imagine you would very much still need to use the LoS to aim. For a start using nav for distance wouldn't affect the horizontal steering at all: you'd still need to use the LoS to line up horizontally. Even with the vertical part if the LoS is a long way vertically from the point you are using for distance the rockets could still go a lot long/short of the target due to parallax error.
@CasmoTV
@CasmoTV 2 года назад
@@tomshackell depends on which LOS. he said cued which could be your NAV point.
@SsgtHolland
@SsgtHolland 2 года назад
@@tomshackell That's what I was wondering. But given the fact that your LOS does not aim the rockets for azimuth and the I-beam only becomes solid with good range, parallax should not be a problem? As the range is calculated in nav from the target, your LOS would not override the range information when aiming vertically? (I love this module)
@tomshackell
@tomshackell 2 года назад
@@CasmoTV Right, that makes sense. But watching Wag's rockets video when he's using COOP mode he's firing onto the point designated by the CPG but he's still steering the I-beam relative to the LoS reticule right? Not the cued LoS. That's what he says he's doing and he's only firing when the I-beam is aligned with the LoS reticule. If I've understood correctly the I-beam is always shown relative to the LoS? If so the LoS is still used "for aiming" it's just not setting the target point.

Thanks Casmo, that helped a lot. I also have another question. In Auto range mode I understand that the avionics does a Pythagorean range calculation based on the aircraft's height and pilot's angle of view to the target. This calculation assumes (and works best) when flying over relatively flat terrain between the aircraft and target. My specific question is: In Nav range mode, does the avionics obtain the targets height from GPS/ NAV system height data to make the range calculation (thus making it better in undulating terrain), or does it still use a flat terrain Pythagorean range calculation? Thanks.

The D model uses a flat earth calculation fir autorange (Triangulates rangr using your head angle vs. your AGL altitude.) Also, the sim probably gives you a way more accurate range than the actual helicopter does. Otherwise, this is a pretty darn good explanation of NORM rockets. Most guys shoot rockets with a NAV range (2nd technique Casmo described) so the range info to WP is more accurate.

Great explanation, but one follow up question. You mentioned that the computer will do math to figure out your range to target based on the angle of your HMD. I'm assuming it's solving for a triangle? Is it able to take into account when the target is at a different elevation than the ground below the helicopter? For example, if I target someone down in a canyon will it use a laser to get the range? Or does it really not even matter at these ranges?

This is better, I was confused when Wags was putting the right edge of the head tracker on the target rather than the HMS. So if a target was designated as the acquisition source by making it a target point, it would be the same concept, you just need to line up the rocket I beam with the acquisition cross, have a correct range and a solid rocket cursor, and fire, right? No need for the head tracker diamond?

@@CasmoTV than you for your reply cosmo, I'm not sure I understand. Are you saying there is no purpose to the sight with nav ranging?

Hey Casmo, I have a question. How do the Kiowas aim their rockets? They supported us more often than you guys because of the altitude and since watching some of your videos I have been wondering about that. From a grunts perspective it's cool to see what you guys were dealing with up in the air.

I spent more time in kiowas than apaches. We used fixed rockets only. So aim with the eye.

Why is the direction of flight indicator always way over to the right. Is the chopper crabbing to the right even when the ball is centered?

@CasmoTV 2 года назад
Cause helicopters and aerodynamics.

Thanks! This seems fairly simple now. Only concern I have is keeping the HMD on target when using trackIR. Is it possible to designate a target from the HMD, then have it hold in place and slew as necessary using the HOTAS? Similar to the A10, F18, etc? I think with TrackIR, it might be easiest to get it close then switch to a hotas driven marker

Nope.

That’s fine till your target is protected by mass quantities of AAA. There is a reason the system was designed this way; and it wasn’t to frustrate gamers.

Do the rockets have a red Glare? Will we have the kind that will be Bursting In-Air? Will we get any proof in the night that our Flag is still There?
