Bogey is the reason i finally figured out how to mark and fire on a target. Hrs of fallin asleep with the in game training or other Tubers long over done videos kept me from getting anywhere. Ima have to relearn everything again after a year not playing DCS but Bogey's got me with his 60 second videos.
Also pay close attention TMS switch and DMS switch will getcha, luckily Bogey puts it on the screen for you. Other videos got me lol
Bogeydope drops the best videos on CZcams at the most clutch times.
Great updated startup guide! Thanks for getting this out so soon after the update.
what an amazing video. Always come to you for f16 tips!
Out of all the guides about the f-16 you can find BogeyDope is the go to guy. Clear concise and gets you going.
I love that you overlag the keybinds.
I was literally looking at your older Startup guide since I was away from DCS for 2+months (due to covid) and was wondering if there were any changes to the process ... and here you are making yet another extremely helpful video! love your channel , keep them coming ;)
Your into got me pumped haha, great video and gets the job done. Poor JFS was near it's motor limit though. Thanks for the shoutout.
HA! Yeah she was workin hard.
No long time no see
Welcome back
glad you redid it because of one main thing i know of: your early one had the l16 instead of whatever those letters are and i was extremely confused why i couldnt get mine to say that lmao, otherwise, i still need this because im playing very inconsistently as of now. good going :)
Thank you! Subbed!
Very nice guide! Thanks!
the hero we need
Thank you ❤
Fantastic helpful video. Thanks from Down Under. Cheers Red. 😊
The absolute "Go to" video, in my opinion, for the F-16 start up. Thank you, Bogey Dope, for taking the time to create this video and for posting it here on YT.
Thank you. I appreciate that. I'm glad it's helpful.
Always helps!
Ur my man!
Hey Bogey Dope good to see another good upload, may I ask where you got that mission for the video?
It is a custom one I made myself, just for this video. I wanted to have stuff happening on the line to make it look more "alive" than my older start video. It's nothing cool, just a bunch of Jets taking off and a couple fly by in the beginning and that's it. The jets fly off into nowhere.
Thank you so much... Without this vid I'd be sitting in my f16 wondering why everything's all messed up... Greetings from Germany❤💙💛 keep it up
Heatblur is going big with the New F4. There will be a crew chief in game as well as a walk around mode for preflight checks. I can't wait!
That is pretty sweet. I must admit, however, I am most excited about them getting the phantom out the door because that means the typhoon is next.
Thanks for video ,why is the mids off in the new start procedure now?
❤
When you use the autostart and it begins the full INS alignment you can just turn it off and back on to stored to speed up the process. Since that is the last thing in the autostart you won't be missing anything
Hmm... every time I've turned INS alignment off after it's started, it forces me to do a full alignment. I've accidentally clicked it into "Norm" a few times, and when I said, "Oops" and turned it off and back to SH, . . . . it's stuck and I'm forced to do a full alignment. I'll have to try this again and see if they changed that behavior.
@@BogeyDope turn it off. Wait a few seconds. Turn it back on. As long as you haven't moved from parked it'll work. Worse case scenario inflight alignment on your way lol
Heyy Bogey i just got my hotas and f16 a couple days ago and i got a questions how do you look around so smoothly thanks!
TrackIR head tracking.
Back again. Lol. Have you ever done a tutorial on how to get your voice sound like it's coming through SRS? If not, would you be able to?

A few things... some paltry, others genuine questions. First, one thing I usually do, just to have a little immersion, is I turn on the aux radio to request startup from ATC before going Start2. I like it, keeps the virtual ATC happy. Otherwise, I do have a few questions. So, after you turn MIDS on, I noticed you didn't go to the DLNK page. When I go there, the GPS TIME is set to off and the SYNC is COARSE. When I turn the GPS TIME on (1 on the ICP), the SYNC will go to FINE, which I believe is better than COARSE (isn't it?). The other thing that I can't figure out is the channels sub-page for DLNK. Start in the air, the channels are set (to 001 or whatever). On a cold start, they are set to 000 (and cannot be changed). If I am correct, that means that your wingman (wingmen) and contributors are not linked to your jet and you have to depend on 3rd party (AWACS) information to even see them on the HSD. Am I missing something? Does ED have more to fix (being able to edit the channels)? Or is there some procedure that I need to do that I am not? Thanks for everything. Great video. I was amazed at how close your quick startup procedure was to mine. A few things in different orders, but yours is better and so I'm adopting it. Thanks again.
Yeah I noticed the same thing. Since there are no notes about it in the changelog, I am unsure if that is intended. My assumption is things will continue to change with the Viper since it is still in "early access", which is why making these videos is like hitting a moving target. For now, this is the new procedure, and I have not found that GPS time being on or off has effected my Datalink or anything else yet. So as of now, I'm leaving it alone.
Question: Prior to HMCS align, "ENTR" on INS align coordinates for jet position followed by GPS time cycle on/off to confirm DL?
For a full alignment, you will need to enter jet coordinates. For "Stored Heading" alignment, you don't need coordinates (This is why I use Stored HDG in this video). It's using the stored coordinates from the last shutdown (In this case, it's a sim and just assumed the jet has not moved since it was last shut down). GPS on/off was the work around prior to the latest update, and, as far as I can tell, not needed anymore. As of this version of DCS, I have not needed to touch GPS time on/off. From my experience thus far, it wont hurt to do it, but I haven't seen any difference in doing it or not doing it. This could change in the future, I don't know. As of now, however.... no.
@@BogeyDope 🙌🫡
Were you using TrackIR for this video? And if so any chance you could share your TrackIR profile?
Graduating from flying warbirds so this may sound like a dumb question but what button do you recommend setting BYP flares/chaff to?
That is a personal preference dependant on what HOTAS you have. I have a hat switch on my Virpil that I put the CMS switches on.
So, random question for you but can you comment on some updated behavior for the F-16? Right now, when using mavericks in PRE with TGP SOI and AUTO, target designating with TMS Forward will cause the SOI to change to WPN during the handoff. This seems wrong. The devs made it so doing TMS Forward with FCR SOI would change SOI, but it seems to have copied over to the TGP as well. Is this expected behavior?
Great video as always!
If I recall correctly I do the handoff with TMS Right short not TMS Forward. (Rookie over-here, so take it with a pinch of salt)
I'm not sure. I haven't run Mavericks in a bit. I'll have to test this. However, TMS right should do that. I'm not sure if TMS up would do the same in real life. My assumption is no, but I don't know for sure.
TMS forward point tracks and initiates the handoff of TGP when set to auto. Always TMS forward for mavericks.
I do however see that the weapon screen is selected after the update no matter auto or Man selected on TGP. Not sure if that is correct behavior.
Sometimes I sit around waiting for System to go to GPS System for like 5+ minutes and then eventually run out of patience.
Anything I'm doing wrong or should I just be more patient?
im assuming you are using trackir? or tobi? how do you get so much range and smoothness lol
In this video, yes, I use TrackIR. I press F7 to smooth out the motion for these videos. I don't use F7 when I'm flying on my own though.
Hey Bogey, following your guide I did rewrite the original "autostart" script, which has no value in being a full-realistic startup with FLCS BIT and all. If you want I can send it to you or upload it to ED files.
Pls upload to ED, Thanks!

[UPDATED 2.9.3] F-16C Fastest Automatic Startup + GPS Datalink
agggh i wish i could, but my trackir goes insane if i try and look all the way at the far panels
Do you have the TrackIR pro? Or the reflectors? Make sure you have all your windows closed and blinds drawn so there is no sunlight coming in. Any infrared will cause this behavior. Another thing (If you have the pro) is to check the "Camera View" in the TrackIR software to make sure your trackers are not touching each other at certain angles.
I can't get the gps system to show up on the time page no matter how long I wait, can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I left the gps switch on for more than 60 seconds and left mids off.
How did you make your voice radio like?

hi, i'm sorry to pop this question. I'm from Belgium and i have a question, i have bought the F16 C yesterday, now i want to put a skin on the plane but i cant find out how. I have the skin in the liveries but when i want to juse the skin, dcs can't find the skin. Did i gave the wrong name for the plane in the liveries, it is now F16CM bl50. I hope someone can help me
Hello good afternoon from GMT, as of right now, your startup tutorial isn’t working, as no matter if I get all of the steps right, none of the screens like the HUD, MFDs DED will turn on. Strange as hell. Do you think you can help?
Make sure you have turned on your Avionics switches as shown at 7:40.
Sometimes on startup it doesn't switch to gps system but just stays on system. Any clue why?
As long as you have the switches powered on in the avionics panel, it should eventually go to GPS system. I've seen it go really fast, and I've seen it take a little bit.
@@BogeyDope ok thanks will try that. Great work on all your stuff btw. Keep up
What's the difference between start 1 and start 2?
The jet has two accumulator bottles (JFS/Brake Accumulator Bottles) that are pressurized at 3,000psi. When you flip the switch to START1, you will dump 1 bottle into the JFS Hydraulic Start Motor that spins up the JFS to start it. If you use START2, you dump both bottles.
Im a real-life Israeli F-16 instructor. we do the more complex procedures in the Israeli Air Force. but that was so Nice to see how the American pilots are doing it :) you guys know the Israeli pilots (we) are good, but I really like to watch others and learn from them so that was so cool :) You can join our flights Bogey Dope. See you in the Air. :)
Oh this is NOT the real life procedure. This is a quick procedure for the simulation only. Definitely would break some stuff in the real jet if you follow this procedure.
@@BogeyDope Indeed. :) For example we do a check that we call in Hebrew/English "BIT, Speeds, CONT" in which we ask the ground crew to give us a clearance to start doing the 3 checks above. BIT switch on. Built In test starts. then AirBrakes to fully Extend. and the 3rd and last check is the Engine Cont. we switch in from Primary Mode to Secondary. raising the RPM, Checking the Nozzle position remains in the 'Dry' Area, and toe brakes working, or parking brakes. and we move to other checks as well. so this is the more Real Life F16 checks. :) in hebrew we call this test : Reshut Le' Bit - Ma'atzorim - Vasat' . :) They Don't Call us The Best Pilots in the world forNothing, but we really try to learn from all the others that are good just like you :)
@don8967 Yes. I go over the full real life start up procedure here if you're interested - czcams.com/video/YCOVyuz4uYQ/video.html
ok now we're talking :) damn that was good. Im in the middle of that video but so far so good. all correct. good job. we do have some israeli avionics as well so we do some extra things on top of it - but that is indeed and I can confirm - real life F-16 procedures. good job Chief. Loved that. :) You gotta join our flights. fly with me - I'm a real life f-16 pilot. and now adays a Private Pilot.@@BogeyDope
I just gotta add one more thing as I mentioned before, we do in the IAF (Israeli Air Force) 3 checks on the same time. we Run Bit on, during that - we do an Air-Brakes check, and an ENG-CONT check. so when we get clearance for "BIT CHECK" we infact ask clearance for "BITS - BRAKES - CONT" and than every one moves away so we can perform those checks with out hraming nobody on the ground serrounding the jet. :) so we do it a bit fastter .. but I flew with AMERICAN pilots and they use exactly what you did so that is so nice to see that on DCS. good job.@ope
"RDR" is just short for "radar"
yes
Yup
Good to know! Txs.
I could not do that if my life depended on it.
please bhai aap dcs world k mission editor par vedio bana do k mission kese banaen dcs world mein or jets k control bottun bhi bata do kebord par
