Proper Gunsight/Convergence Calibration

[Skoshi Tiger]

Adjusting the gunsight for distance does nothing to alter the convergence of the guns.

It just moves the horizontal bars displayed on the gun sight closer or further apart. It does not alter the aim vertically in any way.

In sim as in real life, Changing the distance on the sight does not alter the bullet path on the screen.

To change convergence you need to get a set of spanners and alter the angles that the guns are mounted in the wings. Not practical in flight.

It is a useful way to judge distance to target. To calculate the distance you are from target. Set the wing span on the sight, agjust the distance until the gap meets the wingspan of the target object , then read the distance from the scale. Make any adjustments to your aim and understand that your not firing at convergence distance.
