If I have Autoscan:
99% of the time I Auto and chill.
1% of time i’ll flip into manual if I feel I need a better look bc the Auto function is making it look like end of days for tactical close in deviations.
Non Autoscan:
Start with 4-5 UP.
Adjust tilt during climb so to be about 0 passing low to mid 20s.
FL250 I go two clicks counterclockwise out of CAL gain to MAN gain.
i’d love to see more tips and tricks because I’m always learning.
Technique I picked up from NWA pilots that instructed on the plane when they first got it. Use Gain setting based on FL. I come out of CAL around 200. Max gain/max alt (39ish). Each click down is roughly 5,000 feet. One below Max/350. I do this to 3 below Max for approximately 250.
