Hello, with the Viper and a mixed payload of GBU12/GBU24 I wasn't able to release the 12's although I was on a level flight, armed, lasing, etc.

I wasn't able to find what I was doing wrong, since I was able to release the 24's, although they didn't track the laser, but that's an issue for a different ticket that I'll open now.

I have other squadron mates that have had the same problem with the Viper/GBU12's.

Track here: https://filetransfer.io/data-package/NVeZp89g#link

Another track from tonight, no mods. Min 15.00 and onwards: https://filetransfer.io/data-package/gU075zpO#link

Many thanks.

Hi, did any mod had the chance to review this? I tried setting different release angles on the CTRL page, since a squad mate suggested it could be related, but I encountered the same behavior with 45º and 0º.

I'm always launching on level flight below M1.

Thanks.

After some testing I can confirm that, in the case of the GBU10 and GBU12, the FPM has to be exactly over the steering line if these are to be released. Can we please get the manual updated and the tolerances for the FPM deviation published?

Thanks.
