Krause's BMS 4.32 Tutorials

@tyrspawn:
The degrees is for lofting the AMRAAM.
The number under that with the letter is a time to impact, go semi-active (“pitbull”) or interception, based on range. For more on this check out page 77 in the BMS manual.
To everyone else:
Glad the video has been helpful, i’m planning to produce one a day until i’m satisfied to have covered everything.
Glad to hear that man! Having some good informative videos to watch alongside reading the manual makes the learning experience that much better!
Personally i think i need some practice using the TWS mode combined with using the antenna as i’ve been shot down multiple times by stuff that’s creeping up behind me, or under me or whatever… I don’t even know… grrrr!
What’s giving me a hard time is the insane amount of planes up in the air at the same time, most often fairly close to eachother so having to lock each and everyone up and “declare” takes a very long time, then doing that for a good 10 min straight trying to find that one bandit that the AWACS called out amongst the cluster of friendlies… Keeping track of which ones you’ve had declared as friendlies i find impossible too lol, so the process repeats itself till i get shot in the face by either a SAM or the bandit itself I loose the little awareness i have trying to find the bandit… :rolleyes:

Here’s some pointers.
You don’t need to declare something unless its “turned in” on you (high closure rate, bearing to intercept). If you keep your radar in TWS, you will know something has turned into you when you see it turn and the nose line extends to you. That is for general situation awareness.
Another thing, if you ever get a contact on the RWR and you don’t see it on the FCR, chances are its flying very low, or may even be under you (probably about to turn up and fire a heater at you). Quickly change the tilt and scan using the FCR - most air contacts will rarely be above 30,000 - if you still cant acquire them and they are “within lethal” (which I will explain in another tutorial) you should immediately start visually scanning or going defensive.
One thing you should learn is to use your eyes. Don’t rely too much on the instruments, especially when the enemy is closer than 20 miles.
Also if you are in a package with an escort, fly the caret on the speed tape, i.e. remain on time, and trust your escorts.

@tyrspawn:
WATCH ALL VIDEOS IN 1080 P ON FULL SCREEN FOR MAXIMUM EFFECT
FCR, AIM-120, AIM-9, HMCS, Dog Fight Mode:
please make other videos for A-G, and missile defense systems against various missiles threats. and if you can, can you give subtitles?
-
Thanks for these. Very helpful and informative.
-
Oh so great.
I am going to make time to watch all of them.
Thanks for Krause’s BMS Tutorials. -
Thanks for the great tutorial & keep up the good work!! Bless you!!
-
Yup, much appreciate. Please update the first post with any new vids as they become available to make the ‘course’ easier.
-
Really great job, very helpful and informative.
Thank you!
-
Great video Krause!
-
Original post updated with CCRP/CCIP/DTOSS bombing video.
-
Awesome, Krause! These are very much appreciated.
I’m looking forward to your next one!/bow
-
Keep em coming m8, great videos!
-
Yet again, Krause you’ve teached me and probably many others something new and usefull! Exceptionally good explanation withouth going too deep so it would feel overwhelming.
Hopefully something will come up on how to deal with the various different pesky SAM systems that keeps preventing me from ever reaching my target in the campaign! And something about the different symbols on the RWS/HDS.
Thanks again!

This post is deleted! -
very good videos and very explaining
keep it coming -
Just a tip: rather than pausing, use shift-p to freeze the sim. You can still interact and use the systems as normal, but objects are frozen.
-
Great tutorials, thank you very much!
Some explanations might be not 100% accurate but the videos demonstrate perspicuously how to use the systems -
I’ve learned a thing or two as well.Btw. wouldn’t it be convenient to use the “freeze” function instead of “pause” so you can operate the systems while not moving?
@Silent: Nice list, having video tutorials about all those points would make many pilots very happy.
My head hurts a lot when reading longs manuals, not so much when watching videosEdit: Planehazz, you’re a ninja!
-
Thanks for the great videos and explanations. looking forward to harm tutorial hopefully. thanks again.
-
I will use freeze next time - I was not aware of the difference between shift-p and p until now. Thanks for the tip.

Hi there,
I wrote a topic listing all subjects that can be related in video tutorials OR in a BMS Wiki.
I made some video tutorials in Brazilian Portuguese for the OpenFalcon that can be used on the Falcon BMS.
If Krause and more people has some interest in create tutorials based on it, the topic follows below:
BMS Tutorials and Index of Subjects
Great initiative.
Best regards.
SilentFeel free to link my videos to your index. Thanks. For certain topics you can link my same video, just use a time link rather than straight video link. I hope that makes sense.
