You can reset the sight without a reset command.
POST UPDATED WITH NEW INFORMATION: See the proposed solution here.
What you need to do is follow the PDF for the FIRST angle, right?
And after your first run, you need to realize that YOU have to reset the bombsight yourself.
I've had the best success with the following
- CLOSE your bombay doors.
- Turn ON bombsight automation again until the hollow triangle (4) has made it's way counter-clockwise and stops. Wait a couple of seconds
- Turn OFF bombsight automation. UPDATED: NO! See the proposed solution. Do NOT turn off bombsight automation. It will turn itself off.
- Follow the INITIAL procedure as outlined in the PDF.
- Make sure you remember to open the Bombay Doors again.
HOWEVER, I've had mixed success with this. Normally if I "re-do" the procedure no matter what the bombsight angle is off by about 15 degrees and bombs almost always land 100-200m LONG of the target.
I'm posting a track for the developers to confirm. Maybe *I* am doing something wrong.

I've found a problem about the bombsight BZG-2 (it's not a bug).
What if a player needs to perform a recallibration of the bombsight before his bomber reaches the target?
Actually there is not a way to do it after the command "Bombsight Automation" is turned ON by the first time within the mission; and many things could happen: sinking of the plane, changes of TAS, miss of the chosen landmark by clouds, etc.
The Bombsight Automation of the BZG-2 works like a stopwatch; the elapsed time between the ON/OFF switching is computed together the input Altitude to solve the TAS internally, and finally we get the Drop Angle as output. Right?
Well... IMHO we would need a command "Reset Bombsight" to restart the BS callibration as many times as the player needs. By now, the only way to do it is... reflying the mission.  |
