Title: AV-8?
Post by: AG-51_Thud on November 30, 2017, 12:03:28 AM

So, whatcha think?  I got it downloaded just in time to go to work.

The only documentation I saw was the pocket guide.

Pocket Guide is all there really is right now.  Though Jappers did a really quick start up tutorial on Youtube.   It's just enough to get you going  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjBrz_XVEpY&t=288s (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjBrz_XVEpY&t=288s)

And be sure to pay attention to that video because there is no auto start! I got about 10 minutes to mess around with it last night (sorry Apache) before being dragged off by my wife, but I am very impressed. If this is anything like what we're going to see in the Hornet, I am going to be very pleased!!  :thumbsup:

Ditto here (except for the part of being dragged away by your wife again)

Was able to get it started at least

For those looking at Control Bindings for the AV-8B, here's mine  (granted, it's an X-55 and I know most of you probably don't have this ... but this is what I think is important at the moment)   https://i.imgur.com/szuPkWj.jpg (https://i.imgur.com/szuPkWj.jpg)
Also, here's a good little Mav tutorial I found.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jCh5a2TAGA&t=157s (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jCh5a2TAGA&t=157s)

TDC Fwd
TDC Aft
TDC Left
TDC Right
TDC Down/Action (this locks the Mav)
Cage/Uncage
Sensor Select Fwd
Sensor Select Aft
Sensor Select Left
Sensor Select Right
A/G Undesignate/Nose Wheel Steering

Looks like Chuck released his guide to the Harrier.  His stuff is always incredible.
