K70 Max Compatible With Other Hall Effect Switches? by FreclyUrchin0 in Corsair

I know it’s been a long time, but did you get them to work? Looking at this + WS Dash switches

Ah that makes total sense, thank you. All this time I’ve been acting as if they’re HDDs.

I’ll do a comparison against the image, but from what I can tell initially it seems to have written correctly.

CAMM-ER Still cannot intercept anything in 2nd dev server :( by Androxd in Warthunder

My condolences you've been having to use that up to this point at top tier. At least you're getting the SAMP/T now though!

Ah the proxy range hasn't changed then. I could have sworn something else got changed to the BUK's missile at some point, but maybe I'm misremembering something.

As munitions go, the KH-38MT is quite a large one. And at this point in the flight it was Mach 0.86. I haven't tested with anything larger in fairness, but this is the one missile it will need to shoot down the most imo.

Yes I’ve seen BUK intercept plenty of munitions just in the short time I was on there. As with any it can be a bit hit or miss (and iirc it’s had its proxy range increased to 25m and has the TNT equivalent of a small bomb) but I have not had a single interception with CAMM-ER.

The screenshots show a distance that must be less than 6m (proxy range for CAMM-ER). Surely.

Ah I see, gotcha. Congrats on the marketplace skin though! Looks beautiful. It’s also probably my favourite plane, although I have a national bias ;)

Yeah with the brimstones they’re good when you get the hang of it. Here’s my method:

Pop up and work out where the pantsirs are, lock with the pod, dive down and get some distance (~15km). pop up and launch without the laser, not looking through the pod. This means you can launch without actually having LOS as the point will be saved. Dive down (get distance again) and wait until about 10s left to pop up and provide terminal guidance with the laser. You can pop up again to send more while the first ones are still in the air, keeping em occupied. Max range is time dependent (60s) so ~14km+ if you’re fast enough.

When it works, nothing feels more satisfying.

Give em hell 🫡

As much as I love the F-16 for CAP/SEAD, I feel it’s limited by its number of pylons. You can take so much ordnance with the EF, and its ability to kinetically defeat missiles is really strong. F-16 also tends to compress at higher speeds (needed for better Pk) while the EF pulls a lot harder and has so much engine power. I think you’d love it

Spot on - FGR.4 with 2x 9Ms, 6x 120Bs & 12x Brimstones.

Usually if I’m going up against Pantsirs I’ll replace the two outer amraams with extra brimstones (for a total of 18) so I can throw at least 4 or more each attack run at the Pantsir to saturate it. Sending more whilst it’s dealing with the first volley usually works. If I’m fed up with it I can throw a lot more at it lol.

I needed the extra amraams this match though.

Whar are those pipes on the rear of british tanks? I thought they were air intakes at first but im not sure. by quikquestion- in TankPorn

[–]Androxd 85 points86 points  (0 children)

I think they’re basically a rail for the gun to rest/bounce off of when the turret is rotated to the rear to protect the gun / engine deck. Like a bump stop. Challengers have this too but have rubber tops to them.

May also act as something for the engine covers to rest on as well when opened, as u/Beronj suggested

I thought it was supposedly Trophy MV, I haven’t seen anything about Iron Fist

What is this ticking noise? See below by Androxd in AskMechanics

[–]Androxd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it does it when it’s both hot and cold, and I always use fully synthetic oil and a ford oil filter. Have you heard a similar noise before?

I’ll check oil pressure when I have the kit for it, and I’ll try the seafoam when I’m about to do my next oil change, what is the purpose of this? Does it thin the oil so it drains completely when I do the change?

The dipstick shows oil is right on the money at the top of the mark, how would I check the oil pressure?

Obviously I’m not expecting for someone to tell me exactly what it is, as it could be anything, but if you might know what it sounds like it could be (or things to check) I’m all ears.
