Canopy operation in the F-18 aircraft
-
With BMS 4.5.1, how do you close and open the canopy in the amazing F-18 aircraft. Whatever I am doing does not seem to have any effect. I have tried everything I can do do it and the canopy motor seems to start however the canopy does not close for a ramp start. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Raven

The ladder takes a while to fold. Left click it once and wait. Right mouse does nothing.

…on a RL Hornet the ladder is put up and down manually by the ground crew - it is not mechanized.

Raven,
In 4.35 the Hornet’s canopy activation was messed up by hotspot changes. I invite you to check out the Mod 2 cockpit in the Mafia Files ( see the Mediafile in my signature). And/or, using the Alternate Launcher, assign canopy lock and unlock to a HOTAS button or keyboard command.
BTW, this issue was covered in post#221 of the Project Bug thread, and feel free to post questions on the PB thread, as well .
