Kestrel 4500 Kestrel 4500 Pocket Weather Tracker (WIP)

This should only happen if you place the NATO support box somewhere on the map. Should I remove it from the vanilla support box?

My personal thought, since I use the arsenal, is to remove it and the ATrag from the box and configure it to be on the "+" menu for addition to uniforms/vests/backpacks (where the fist aid, medi-pack, mine detector, etc. are). Would that then create a dependency when placing an arsenal? People choose gear/loadouts using various methods, so I'm not sure what the best option is to suit the majority. I have no problem spawning a support box next to my arsenal since I'm always playing by myself, but I suppose for coop mission builders it could be an issue.

Yeah and maybe make your own box or whatever which I am placing the NATO Support box (didn't realize it was changed) on the map, so that's why. But yes it'll be better in the long run as I have to deal with people and sometimes making a vanilla oriented map (it's all that this one requires, as others) it won't automatically do that.

Ok, I'll remove them in the next release.

If I am looking at the target, how do I set the heading?

I am eitehr on the crosswind or headwind page, I hit the center button '-' but nothing happens?

[ruthberg 7]

I hit the center button '-' but nothing happens?

There is no visual feedback, but it does update the reference heading.

[reciprocity 1]

Is there a tutorial on how to use the kestrel in conjunction with the Atrag to generate a windage hold?

Do you use the calibrated crosswind value for the Atrag windage?

I do not understand what is meant by saying "you must turn into the wind" for speed measurements (do you not just look at the target and get a crosswind measruement)?

[ruthberg 7]

"you must turn into the wind" means that you must look into the direction the wind is coming from. You can find that direction by using the Shift+K wind arrow.

Do you use the calibrated crosswind value for the Atrag windage?

Yes, that works well.

So my procedure would be

- look at target

- bring up kestrel

- go to crosswind screen, hit the '-' key to calibrate, then use this value in Atrag

or is it something else?

[ruthberg 7]

After you hit the '-' key you turn into the wind, then use this value in the ATragMX.
