Hey guys! In this definitive DCS F/A-18C Hornet tutorial we are taking a look at the Auto Pilot and Navigational systems. These two systems are inextricably linked via the Autopilot Coupled mode and is why are combining these two systems into a single video.
The navigational portion of this video will be broken down into INS Waypoint navigation and ground based navigational aids like TACAN. The Autopilot Coupled Mode portion of this video will cover both Waypoint and TACAN Navigation including flying inbound and outbound on specific Radials.
Waypoint creation will be its own separate video for quick reference.
