Aligning sight

[grafspee]

As tittle, i ask for ability to set guns vertical aiming to much expected  Speed and G loads during fights, right now i always have to shoot blind in P-51, spitfire or P47

If the total adjustment available is only 21 mils (less than 1.2 degrees), then at the convergence distance of 300 yards, this equates to an available vertical movement of about 3 ft either way from the default setting. Not insignificant, but not enough to cure 'shooting blind' problems in most cases, I suspect.

Yeah it will not fix problem completely, but as manual states it will help

It doesn't really say anything about helping with shooting blind. Instead, this seems to relate to setting the guns up so they converge directly ahead of the aircraft 'velocity vector' under specific conditions. If you adjust the guns to their highest available angle, it will give a marginal improvement to visibility, but at the expense of making aiming harder under other conditions.

 

Which aircraft is this manual for?
