Waypoints
There are different ways you can set up your Tanker track, a common setup is with 50-100nm legs with about 10 miles separating the legs.
0- Use this waypoint to set up your tankers AI settings.
1/3 - First three waypoints for track
4- Final track waypoint, has action to reset path to waypoint 1
Advanced Waypoint Actions
For waypoint 0 it is vital you set up the TCN
- Bearing: should be checked
- Channel mode: Set as Desired
- Channel: Set as Desired
-Unit: Set to pilot of aircraft *VITAL* step otherwise the TCN won't work
For the final waypoint it is vital you set up the option to set the active waypoint back to another waypoint so that the tanker will orbit re-stepping through all the waypoints above the one selected.
