Get the copilot and fly really high...then he can spot for targets for you AND YOUR TEAM from very high up.

FLIR? never heard of a FLIR in PR.

"scouting" is not really working that well because of how weak the littlebird is. Maybe if the co-pilot uses the sights as far away as possible it could work, but it takes alot of hovering to be effective and thats dangerous. Also, thats two men doing something the commander UAV should be able too. Also, the slowness of the UAV is what makes it great, try spotting caches from a chopper going 200 km/h.

I think the OP´s strategy is great. Killing that many vehicles does help your team by occupying their time and disrupting their plans. Still if you would have died just once I would have questioned it because of the massive ticket loss, so it all comes down to skill and luck. Best thing is usually to take the littlebird, fly it to the corner of the map, and hide it there so that nobody uses it. Bluefor would win so much more on so many maps if it wasnt for those damn choppers making people throw their brain out the window all the time.

The 'very high up' ends at around 450m height, as above that all you'll see is fog because the view distance is 500m and your cone of view narrows the higher you go, at 450-500m you would probably be only able to spot stuff directly below you.

I do hope your not serious or haven't been playing long...

Because FLIR is operated from the co-pilots seat by pressing 2

Are you stating that the mod should be "Infantry Reality"?

True, but doesn't it represent the FLIR?

Yes, because I put it there...

It represents whe flir camera yes, but when someone says FLIR you kind of expect thermal vision, not just a standard camera with the name, which is probably why he said he hadn´t seen FLIR in game.

You should call it FLC(FrontLookingCamera), not FLIR(FrontLookingInfraRed) ;D

1. Its just a camera.

2. Nope, im suggesting people learn to fly on training servers. Im also hinting that people should ask themselves if they help out the team by taking named asset. If brain answers with no, then leave it alone.
