Hi guys,

I'm very thankful if any one tell me how to engage the nose wheel button after taxi and landing from the panels inside the F-16?!

Please post a photo explaining that.

Thank you

Hi

You just press the NWS button on the right side of the stick. Here's a link to an old block 15 stick, but the NWS button is on the same place on newer blocks as well. When you push the button you get a green light on the right side of the HUD showing that the NWS is engaged.

Ah, thank you very much but I don't use the stick.

I'm using the keyboard but I can under stand that now the button is in the right control stick in cockpit and now I'm going to try it .

If you're asking about Falcon 4.0 video game, the keyboard shortcut to nose-wheel steering is: Shift / (forward slash)

I did that 100 times shrimpman after searching in the controls but it didn't work too because the ( shift / ) shortcut is used for the ICP.

Can't you go into options and then controls and see what it's set to? Don't remember if Falcon 4 worked that way, as most games do.

You have to be under a certain speed to turn on NWS I believe, maybe 100 kts.

I have not played for a while now, but believe you must have weight on wheels and be under a certain speed.

60 knots ...... NWS does not activate unless you are less than or equal to 60 knots .... and yes .... you need weight on wheels ...
