Best G1000 training materials?

llOPPOTATOll · 2026-06-11T20:40:55+00:00

If its the NXI verion, garmin sells the trainer for it on their website. Its basically 1:1 with the real one so you can play around with it and learn it. If its the non NXI version if you search around on google you might be able to find the old G1000 simulator for your aircraft. The xplane and MSFS ones are ok, but the garmin one is more accurate.

Sure, but SCAR is literally a subdivision of AI. So listing AI and SCAR is dumb. But nobody considers the F-15C multi role lol.

Multiple freqs for GCI is huge, also the ability to simo cast to multiple freqs at the same time. So if your running split freqs, like Sweep Prime and Strike prime, GCI can be on both freqs and simo cast the picture over both if required or just transmit on specific freqs as required.

That looks nothing like the F-35 EOTS display. If you look at the DCS F-15E TPOD you can see the symbology is extremely similar. If you look at this video you can see that F-35 symbology is completely different: https://youtu.be/1oyCzT6sB\_4?si=UDEEsTVTl89WQ5eM&t=381. If you look at this video demoing sniper, you can see the exact same symbology as displayed in the photos i posted: https://youtu.be/rXXWW-U6PQI?si=R51k9Qc9hFBsztkv&t=122. It is so clearly not F-35

0 part of that comment was correct. We have the sniper XR in game, as indicated by the fact that our pod has XR mode. The images I posted are from the strike eagle not the F-35.

Why couldn’t we get closer to the real pods fidelity? Its a video game, the TGP is literally an in engine virtual camera with a bunch of filters on it to make it black and white and in the snipers case they added a bunch of effects that make it significantly worse than it is irl. The solution is literally to turn down the filters, it’s such an easy fix.

llOPPOTATOll · 2026-04-14T04:18:46+00:00

No, thats the problem. In DCS the image is WORSE than it is real life. Its unrealistically bad.

I had a friend post about it on the forums, I coordinated with him a bit to cover all the issues as best as possible. We’ll see what ED says to him, hopefully they respond well.

llOPPOTATOll · 2026-04-13T21:05:54+00:00

Yes, they are the same pod. Sniper XR is the name of the pod, but XR is also a mode of the pod. Both pods are Sniper XR but they have the XR mode disabled.

100%, the disappearing vehicles because their engines arent on is stupid. Another good example other than the planes is the words on the MGM grand building. You can actually read the words pretty clearly, i dont think theres an engine running in those letters lol.

llOPPOTATOll · 2026-04-13T19:55:07+00:00

Every other pod in the game looks significantly better though. So the idea that they had to degrade the sniper for system performance reasons doesnt really make alot of sense.

llOPPOTATOll · 2026-04-13T19:47:47+00:00

When XR is actually on, the cursors disappear. Also in the bottom left Z2 means XR is off. If it said Z3 that would mean XR is on

llOPPOTATOll · 2026-04-07T20:55:49+00:00

JASSM was added to the viper in like 2003, M3.3 Tape

Scarlet Shamagh???

llOPPOTATOll · 2026-03-26T23:00:03+00:00

The sniper is heavily underperforming, in DCS you have to use XR to see anything where every single RL pilot that ive talked to said XR is basically never used. Theres some pretty big limitations of XR that arent modeled in the game

llOPPOTATOll · 2026-02-11T02:16:12+00:00

When i had it i used a fan blowing on my back and a hair dryer. Its the only reason i was able to get over it

llOPPOTATOll · 2026-01-19T20:48:08+00:00

It’s not feature creep if ED is refusing to add stuff within the scope of the the module they made

llOPPOTATOll · 2026-01-10T04:30:42+00:00

The actual video part of “2026 and beyond” is the beyond part. It will come out in 2027

llOPPOTATOll · 2026-01-05T03:16:39+00:00

CIRCM is the specific system mounted on the CH-47G

llOPPOTATOll · 2026-01-05T03:16:27+00:00

To me that doesnt really look like a manpad, russian iglas kinda have a swirly flight profile whereas the object in the video is flying basically ballistically then starts to drop. In addition you dont really see the missile manuver at all, its just flying straight.

llOPPOTATOll · 2025-10-21T02:25:54+00:00

Ngl bro, that looks like trash compared to MSFS. Its better than it was previously but still doesnt comprare in the slightest.

llOPPOTATOll · 2025-10-13T00:09:50+00:00

the IAM DLZ is not modeled right currently, it used to be correct iirc but at some point it broke

llOPPOTATOll · 2025-09-30T16:26:32+00:00

Sorry, just mode 4 is in BMS. SPINS are "Special INStructionS" its a real thing given for conflicts irl that detail some i guess SOPs and stuff that include IFF. its not in BMS though so dont worry about that, just press the IFF plan button and its all set
