Gunsight

[Scoll]

A wish that his collimator be correctly adjusted, not like his brother D9.

What's the issue with the D-9's sight?

+1

btw A-8 have difrent gunsight then D-9

The gunsight should move up and down when modifing the distance to target (like in the Mustang). It don't do that. So the center of the cross is always placed for a 700 m shoot. If you place the sight on 100 m / 200 m and shoot at a plane that is at this distance, you have to shoot with the center of the cross under the plane.

 

So there is a little mistake on the gunsight but it's boring that it's still not corrected. The cross is precise only when you shoot at about 700 m.

i did not know, hope they do that sometime sooner or later^^

A-8 should have a similar gunsight to the K-4 (standard gunsight without lead prediction)

hmm i think you have to turn on gyro to make it working

[Groove]

The A8 has an Revi 16B sight, no gyro included.

No, Gyro work fine. When the plane move, the sight move with it. But the 0 position only correct when you place your sight for a 700m shoot. But for every distance, it work properly with the plane move (with gyro on).

 

But yes, A8 will have classic gunsight. In 109, it seem to follow correctly german doc so I think it's going to be ok ! :)

 

Wingspan of target X number of time in the circle x 10 = distance of the ennemy plane (in meters) !

Good instrument of measurment ! :smartass:

Good old Revi. Also confirming the bug on the Dora gyrosight. The guns are simply zeroed to 700m distance(verticaly included) and you cannot change it so when you have target 100m infront of you and the crosshair dead center on him youre lobbing all the rounds above him.
