Can someone explain the new drop cues to me?

This....I can find no documentation regarding the new CCRP cues.  The only place I have seen them mentioned is in Wags video regarding toss.  But NO explanation is given for dropping LGBs from level flight at 24000 ft.  It has changed (or it's bugged) and the manual isn't updated.  Hasn't been in quite some time.  It's a little important for us to get instruction on what's changed and not only what's just been added.  Please, where is this documented?  And if it's not please do so.  I've just wasted my morning trying fly and use LGBs but can't get them to drop.   Maybe it might be a good idea for Wags to do a quick vid on this.

CCRP is also discussed in the guide. 

thank you

That video is like 3 years old.  I've seen it many times.  I'm looking for documentation for the changes made to the cues in the latest update. I'm getting the toss cues but I wish to drop in level flight.  I select CCRP but I get a mode that keeps giving me toss cues.  It has changed.  Where are the changes documented?

They are described quite well here:

For level drop in CCRP just ignore the toss cues and drive straight forward. When caret = bottom of scale and timer = 0:00 level release should happen.

The cues are the same for level or toss:

So, there's just always a first set of release cuing telling me when to pull up and toss it if desired?

[Moonshine]

yes. just ignore it and wait until the little release cue starts wandering down the bomb fall line. while thats happening, just hold wpn release, bombs will fall as soon as the release cue passes through the flight path marker

I spent my morning (day) trying to drop CCRP LG bombs, eventually I discovered that I had to ignore toss cue and wait for the second drop cue :smh:

I set the launch angle to 0 thinking that might get rid of the toss cue but it doesn't.

Is there a way to disable the toss cue, when you aren't going to use it? or do I have to just continue ignoring it?

i dont think you can disable it. for level drop, just ignore and continue
