Great video, but I would like to stress the importance of placing markpoints at the wheelbase of a vehicle. It takes less than a second extra and prevents you from spending several seconds trying to find the baddy again because your markpoint is 30 feet off to the west.
Especially in a do or die scenario with some sams, nobody wants to spend another thrity minutes flying back into the ao.

[@Westpoint1-1]

This was mostly just basic mark points. When I'm trying to be very precise, I laser paint them and set the MP on that. Very accurate!

[@konturgestalter]

could you make a video about waypoint attributes?

[@Westpoint1-1]

Are you referring to attributes such as elevation, turning point, flyover point etc?

[@konturgestalter]

@@Westpoint1-1 yes and especially the modes from-to to-to and so on in combination with the HSI

[@Westpoint1-1]

@@konturgestalter I'll look into doing something along those lines soon. Planning another on mark points and then onto the SADL system which will probably come first. Great suggestion! Thanks!

Question: you used TMS forward short with your maverick as SOI why? I have watched this tutorial about 10 times.

[@Westpoint1-1]

TMS forward short when the Mav is SOI and slaved to the TGP will close the gate (Lock) the Mav to the target if you are in range.
