[/size][size=1em]well, it almost worked xD
after bringing Alfa to their LZ I started hovering near devils castle to have my doorgunners fire at the enemys. When I came under fire I pulled back towards the LZ to wait for further orders. After a while I came under fire here and pulled back even further before I was called in to take over the CAS role circling the area so my door gunners were able to support the ground teams ( while I kept reporting the advance of the hostile vehicles (or spamming the radio xD since I had nothing else to do.. well except for fling circles). When the teams made their escape via the eastern walls of the castle I was called In for support and then for extraction bringing the team back to the base.
so far so good
but we had to got back to destroy the downed chopper. flying in from the north I started circling the crash site while the left bank tried to destroy the wreck. after two circles which I flew too high I went for a lower altitude and we took some critical hits. due to the low altitude and a lack of open area crashlanding was not possible so we just crashed .
whats the linkt for the video ?Â

As Manuel said in his guide handling the raven is somewhat strange at first, but at the third objective I had most of the controls figured out.
On the way to my first OP I was attacked and after (seemingly) all of the enemys were killed I was assigned my own medic to keep me company (and alive of course). after assembling the UAV and launching it it was really just a matter of sending it to the AO and marking things on the map. the UAV has a mark on map function which really is helpfull, but unfortunately only marks the users map.
marking stuff for the teams and guiding them on enemys was a piece of cake then.
when stick and I moved out towards the street after lindt was clear we were attacked by one struggler left from the ambush before, but he was killed quickly an we then regrouped an d moved on with the rest of the team.
the other two objectives were mostly a repetition of the first one, spotting being easy for me thanks to the thermal imaging mode and the marker function, which allowed me to mark some positions for myself before marking them on the global map with description. I probably should try to remember cleaning the map up on the go, but I was too fixed on trying to find new dangers to remember that while the objective was still not cleared.
I dont know weather that would be usefull, but I think a second man to a UAV team would always bee a good thing since he could help with clearing markers and keeping the operator safe
might also be A good Idea to set an extra chanel for the UAV operator since at times I was feeling like I was spamming the radio with information I thought might be usefull for some but not for all (probably wouldn't work the way I think an probably has its own drawbacks).
maybe like a secondary chanel for the squad leaders to listen to
