Hello! Nick had some trouble with the tacan on the lightning, so I had a peek at it. Worked for me all right. However, the instrument needle works as if it were a fixed compass card indicator, which it isn't. So there should be an additional rotation applied to adjust for the a/c heading. Patch attached. Please check before commit. Pretty please? ;) I also have some issues: 1) The lightning even has an ILS instrument but I could not find a DME. Have I overlooked it? 2) How do you check if the tacan/vor/adf/whatever radio transmitter is in range? A digital display could go blank, but an instrument needle must point somewhere. Shouldn't there be an indicator light or something? Or is it just left to the pilot to listen for the morse code? 3) In the lightning rmi and hsi animations there are a couple of interpolation tables for identity transformation. Do they have any purpose? Greets, Csaba |
