Potential fix for the next update: the HUD projection base will be dimmable with the HUD brightness wheel too:
Nice!!! Thanks. looking forward to it 
In the real plane is a 3-position switch, with 3 functions:
AB RESET: This position is used to attempt to clear DEEC faults.
NORM: Normal (deenergized) position.
ENG DATA: This position may be used to record engine data in the EDU (Engine diagnostic unit).
Those functions don’t really make sense in MSFS, so: the normal position allows the full throttle operation, while the reset position limits the throttle to Military thrust and reset the throttle position. This way you can fly without being afraid to activate AB.
Excellent! Thank you very much for that detailed explanation.
I’ll sit down with the bird and explore to my heart’s content. Will let you know if any questions come to mind.
Thanks for your dedication to keeping these birds as close to the real thing as possible. Also, loving the updated AB visual effect.
Just a quick question. With the current version of the F-16 I seem to be unable to “reach” the Battery switch. When I mouse over it, all MSFS catches is the throttle itself, as proven by switching tooltips on. I tried all kinds of camera angles, but I just can’t get to the switch. Anyone else experiencing this issue?
You need to hide it, use the threat knob
From CodenameJack
Interactive Checklist, you need to follow it in order to find all the new switches.
It has been working for me.
Odd. I’m on Xbox and have basically zero add-ons. Hmm…
Thanks Dean, must have missed the change. Will try again later.
Whats the difference between ILST and ILSN on the left side of the right display?
It is necessary to distinguish the 4 modes:
-TCN: When you are capturing stations based on TACAN channels, in this case NAV will use TACAN over VOR or GPS.
-ILSTCN: when you have an active tacan channel + a valid ILS frequency, in that case NAV will disable TACAN or GPS so you can capture the GS (an example would be trying to approach the KLAX using a valid TACAN channel plus an ILS frequency for the final approach, Tacan navigation will be interrupted so you can capture the GS with APP).
-NAV: Normal VOR navigation when TACAN is disabled or no valid Tacan channel is active.
-ILSNAV: the same as NAV but for ILS approaches without TACAN navigation active. for example, you have a vor frequency in NAV1 and ILS in NAV2 or viceversa or just an ils frequency and nothing else.
Unfortunately there are hardly any TACAN frequencies you can experiment with in MSFS, with ILSNAV being the most widely used method.
what you will notice is the following: if you tune to an ILS frequency and try to activate ILSNAV outside the capture radius it will not let you, you will have to activate NAV meanwhile until you are close enough. Once done, you can enable ILSNAV so you will display all the info in the HUD (CDI and GSI).
Ok i see. Tacan over rides other navs, that may explain why i have trouble capturing ILS/GS.
I tend to fly mostly from military to military runways so i use Tacan more often than gps or vor.
So if i disable TCN il be able to capture ILS or RNAV approach.
As im on xbox this is a whole new curve to climb so i may be picking your superior noodle often lol
Cheers Jack always appreciate your help
I had this issue, and others (see my earlier post in this thread). Everything started working correctly when I removed the enhanced F18 Super Warrior mod from flightsim.to from my community folder. I think its a messy mod that in terms of its coding. Its clearly having an effect on others things.
Yeah, TACAN DRIVES NAV and GPS DRIVES NAV.
For example i take off from EGUL heading to EGOV,
Before take off i set TCN to CH21X for EGOV and input 108.550MHz into nav2.
When i reach about 30miles from EGOV i disable TCN and swap navs 1&2 over to pick up LOC DME. Then follow the VOR bearing (OBS) to find start of approach. Then drop gear(below 300kts) and wait for ILS to show on HUD or MFD and follow it down?
At which point would i (if inclement weather) engage ACLS?( sorry if that F14 version im not infront if it today)
I have noticed that the afterburner cone appeared to vanish at night on my flights. I’m wondering if it is something to do with the way the old cones worked, they were invisible during the day but visible at night, and something has got lost in translation?
