I can get my Shkval up! How do you slew it? I watched the you tube videos.

should say that it is more a question of how to use guns and rockets than just the Shkval.TX-Kingsnake

You just need to map a hat or use the keyboard to slew the cursor (scroll to the "s" section of the controls menu), and when in game you must first press the uncage button - default is the "o" key, then slew to a target, and lock on it with teh enter key. Similar to Lock on, you can zoom in or out with the -/+ keys, and change the size of the target designator brackets witht he [ and ] keys.The different weapons have different things that they need in order to fire. It's best to just learn one at a time.S!TX-EcoDragonBlack 1TX-Squadron XO

That cage/uncage command will be used a lot.  What I'm doing right now is mapping the SHKVAL commands to my joystick using:HAT1 (Huge Gray HAT) as up/down/right/left - S3 hold HAT1 up is recenterHAT2 (Small black HAT) uncage/designate target UP - Use of the uncage/designate command designates targets for the data link system, which is operated via the data link control panel on the left side of the cockpit.  - After a target is designated - the originating pilot would classify the target as 1) Vehicle 2) AAA 3) Other, using the respective keys (with symbols in the top row )....More on Data Link Operations...SymbologyNOTE Shkval SCAN mode - very interesting - very very useful Hope this helps..S~GunnyBlack 2 TX Flight Leader
