fjacobsen Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 (edited) I really thought I had figured out how to drop bombs in dive/glide bombing, but using auto release or getting the reticle to indicate release, really puzzles me. For rocket or bombs attack - should the radar be turned off (Reostat)? With the radar on, ground clutter seems to affect the sight in rocket/bomb mode. What should wingspan and manual range be set at ? For ground attack with guns, 60 ft should be set for a 100 mil reticle - does that hold true fro bombs and rockets ? How about the unit to the left of the windscreen for manual pipper ? How to use ? The available manuals I have found does not exactly tell (F-86E, F-86H) I do not request a manual, but some easy to follow steps would be appreciated. Maybe it´s still buggy !!

Scrim Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 Stick to manual bombing for now. The other method involves the A4 sight computing a solution, but since electric caging doesn't work in the bomb mode, it's very much broken. You can get it working if you go after some very specific steps, but IMHO, it's just not worth it. Until the caging starts working, it's not worth bothering with the computed bombing modes, as they really don't add enough accuracy over manual bombing.

But I still guess that even for manual bombing the radar should be turned off inorder to not interfer - right ? FinnJ | i7-10700K 3.8-5.1Ghz | 64GB RAM | RTX 4070 12GB | 1x1TB M.2.

TurboHog Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 Check this video for bombing with the manual pip bombing system. 'Frett'
fjacobsen Posted July 30, 2014 Author Posted July 30, 2014 Check this video for bombing with the manual pip bombing system. Wow.. Thx for the video - works great :) FinnJ | i7-10700K 3.8-5.1Ghz | 64GB RAM | RTX 4070 12GB | 1x1TB M.2. NVMe SSD | 1x2TB M.2.

FinnJ I don't know actually, but I get the feeling it shouldn't be necessary, as the radar isn't involved at all in the calculation from what I've gathered.
