I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, any help really appreciated.

 

 

I have wing sweep buttons configured for

Up - wings forward

Down - wings down

Left - Auto

Right - Bomb

 

 

I have checked the button config and it all looks good within DCS. In the config menu when I click Right on the hat it jumps to 'WINGS - BOMB Mode'

 

 

However, when I click Right in flight or on the ground, it goes to 'MAN' wings. I can't get the wings to go to 'BOMB'. The auto, up and down are all working fine. Wings are moving. Flaps aren't blocking wing movement. I've tried at slow and fast speed, with or without Master Arm.

 

 

I'm really not sure what I'm missing or doing wrong. Any ideas how I can get the wings to BOMB mode?

Nothing. You're doing nothing wrong.

 

I think of bomb mode as a manual mode preset. As long as the wings sweep back to 55 degrees (as shown by the moving bug on the sweep scale) when you press your bomb mode binding, that's bomb mode.

 

If you're thinking one of the 5 windows next to the sweep scale should say 'bomb' when you're in bomb mode, you're mistaken.

 

The five windows on the right side show:
• OFF - System inoperable.
• AUTO - CADC controlling wing-sweep.
• MAN - Wings set manually with the control on the right throttle.
• EMER - Wings set with the emergency wing-sweep handle.
• OVER - Wings in oversweep.
