VTOL VR Tutorial Nuggets: Countermeasures and Evasive Maneuvers 

It’s often behind you and will not trigger MISSILE WARNING, only MISSILE LAUNCH.

Spinning? Now that's a good trick

@@chrishavill6458 This comment is so underrated!

@@HeathBromley How...?

Same!! I would immediately dive, barrel roll and flare until the beeping stopped or I died 😆

Some smart missiles like the aim 120d or airst wont fall for that easily

The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position that it was, is now the position that it isn't. In the event that the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn't, the system has acquired a variation, the variation being the difference between where the missile is, and where it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too may be corrected by the GEA. However, the missile must also know where it was. The missile guidance computer scenario works as follows. Because a variation has modified some of the information the missile has obtained, it is not sure just where it is. However, it is sure where it isn't, within reason, and it knows where it was. It now subtracts where it should be from where it wasn't, or vice-versa, and by differentiating this from the algebraic sum of where it shouldn't be, and where it was, it is able to obtain the deviation and its variation, which is called error.

And in turn, the missle subtracts the targets location, from all locations

Pixel Dust no u

Those other airframes have their own tutorials, and all operate similarly to the AV-42C in their own ways. You should have no problem learning them

RWR Tutorial is planned, possibly soon!

You probably have to map this on some other button as the WMR controllers don't have ABXY buttons. Luckily the Reverb G2 finally will change that. Can be done in the SteamVR overlay you should get to with the left menu button. And probably you'll have the same issue with weapon select on the right one.

Im on WMR, you click the menu button on left controller while holding the throttle stick

put your Left controller (hand) on the throttle and spam B.

It is actually ideal, as the missile will have to expend more energy trying to fight gravity.

Looking back on this comment when I was generally new aviator, this is less than ideal. It works in this game, but shouldn’t be practiced in other games like DCS.

AIM-9 is heat seeking, AIM-120 is radar. Should say in the game.

@@punishedkid wait isn't aim-9 just radar guided but short range?

@@The.Penguin98 no the aim9 is IR, but can be slaved to radar to some extent

Try turning your flaps to "2," inverting, then pulling hard.

Disable G-limiter. This may or may not get you killed.
