FW 190 A5 U17 bomb swich wrong

[easterling77]

Hi

 

I wasn't sure to put this message here or under the Dev assistance/Sugesstions. (If wrong placed please corrct me)

 

Recently I noticed this and if I don't messed up badly there is a minor fault - If I missunderstood this I apologize and this Topic can be cleared.

 

 

 

 

 

After swiching the bomb drop mode from the wings (4X50KG bomgs) to the center rack  (250/500KG) bomb (Technochat protocolled this correctly as seen on the right) - the both swiches of the bomb control panel on the lower left went on "Ein" (eng "on").

 

The technical instruction on the left to the two swiches states "Bei Abwurf der Rumpfbombe beide Schalter auf Aus" (eng "For dropping center bomb both swiches on "Aus" [eng. "out"].

 

But as seen in the picture the swiches are set on "Ein" so IRL the pilot would drop the wing bombs and not the center one - so correctly the both swiches should stand in the uper "Aus" position as the center Bomb is chosen in this situation.

 

No big thing (I only did notice this after 3 years of BOX?), especialy when using the Technochat, but if you would like to use the plane without Technochat this could cause some irritations.

 

Greetings DP
