Krause's BMS 4.32 Tutorials
-
Really great tutorials.
By these vids I have learned the falcon BMS basics in 3-5 days (never flown it before, only A-10C which is useful here).
Thanks!
Also thanks for this nice piece of software, BMS devs! -
First, thanks for the vids. Have you thought about making a tutorial on how to complete some of the TEs? That could be really useful though a bit redundant maybe. I would like to see you defeat a mig29 with the AIM9. Yes, you have done this elsewhere, but the TEs use several differents types of AIM9 etc.
Also, why not link to other good tutorials on your main post? So far, I have found this useful:
(Art of the Kill from Falcon 3) -
Which one BFM video do you want, Nakan? Iām no tanit but I could make a 1080p video just the same. Please send PM if I forget to visit the thread again.

First of all, I wish to thank you for this very useful topic, and a very good tutorials. Although Iām not new in flight simulations in the Falcon BMS 4.32 I did in the beginning. I watched tutorials and looking at the forum, but I havenāt found where you reading given (planned) course/heading of stage of the route? Such information is not in the mission planner/scheduler, and when the simulation starts, in navigation mode canāt find which is planned bearing to the next steerpoint. For example in DCS: A-10C is to be checked like this

(Art of the Kill from Falcon 3)I would venture to say that TEās are best learned if you just go in there and learn from self experience. That is honestly how I learned a lot of the basics in BFM. Krauseās tutorials mainly focus on system education I.E. learning how to CCIP, navigation, different launch methods for the Mavrick and so on. From my experience in this game, the best way to learn tactics is to go out there and get shot at. Furthermore tactics change all the time, so although you could teach the very basic BFM scenarios, being successful in a A2A engagement is to learn from your mistakes.
I know when I fly with Krause and the other squadron mates, that is primarily how we learn to be better sim pilots. I am actually in the process of building a couple of TEās for our squadron and was actually interested in shooting some video of basic threat reaction and dog fighting.

In the Jet, the planned heading isnāt something you can bring up like in the DCS:A10C. However, before youāre flight while your still in the 2-D map, click on the briefing button at the bottom of the screen. Read down the briefing page at your flight plan. You will get planned TOS, headings, speed, and angels. Youāll have to print it out, or write them down though.

He can also use Weapon Delivery Planner to get the navigation log on the datacard
-
And thatās a much pretty format for printing too

THX Sovien and Dee-Jay these are very useful information. I seem to have overlooked this information in the briefing page. WDP looks very nice, and seems to have great potential. Certainly should to try it.
Does this mean, that in the cockpit, we canāt be checked bearing (using ICP/DED)? -
I would also like to say a big thank you for the great training videos. They are very very helpful to a newbie.
I would be grateful if you could clarify one item in the A2A MFD training session. I have searched everywhere in the forums and on the web and canāt find it. Is the Maltese Cross shown in the image below where the radar is actually ālookingā in relation to the locked up target? With apologies if I have missed it.Click on it to enlarge the image

CATA (collision antenna training angle) can act weird like that in the screenshot sometimes: itās a bug. otherwise it should be indicating where you should fly towards in order to collide with your locked target.

Many thanks Moort and Bushmaster78S for explaining that. Donāt know what we would do with all the help from this forum. Some of the answers canāt be found by just searching.

This is exactly what I needed as a complete non-pilot

Be A Good Wingman tutorial added to the OP
-
Awesome. Thank you!
One question: You fly with the jammer on constantly. I was under the impression that itās better not to do this because then the enemy can lock onto the jammer itself? Perhaps in BMS there are no adverse effects of leaving it on?

@Mud:

Jammer has one disadvantage: you can be spotted at longer range than if you were not jamming. Also, it allows āhome on jamā from active missiles like aim-120/adder.
Advantages: takes longer for someone to lock onto you, and the range at which they can is decreased.

Krause, can you add a tutorial video on using JSOWs? BTW, your air-to-air refueling video was every helpful. I was finally able to hook up. For me, thatās the first time since Falcon 4.0 came out.
