Does the 109K4's bomb control panel work?

[BabyFox]

I came from the dcs, so I'd like to start with an aircraft I know well.

But after I checked the key binding settings, I can't I can't turn the knobs on that panel.

 

In fact I feel like there's less information on the bos and I'm having a hard time figuring out what features the airplane has. It's especially hard to know which features are simplified by the game. For example, I found it impossible to control the weapon safeties in the game. So is there a website or video with more complete information on BOS?

Try this... the video will show you most of the actionable controls

 

 

 

In general though, GB doesn't have a lot of actionable control systems, they are mostly automated. I don't fly the 109 K4 a lot, but I'm pretty sure it only has single release for bombs. 

 

GB isn't a switchology game, more head out of the cockpit flying

G'day BabyFox,

things like safety switches for guns are not modelled. There is however a bomb safety switch as well as a bomb series selector (both in the weapon control). I don't have in mind currently if the K4 has the option for 4 SC 50 (that should be selectable with the bomb series selector).
 

Besides that could be this helpful for you

which isn't animated, though. So you can't see in your cockpit, if your bomb is armed or safe. You need to use the HUD, which is pretty poor.

You'll never need to check your safety, if you never turn it on.

That's quite useful, I'll check it tonight. Maybe it's the " Bombs safety switch". I only tried "Drop bombs mode toggle" and "Drop bombs delay toggle" before

Unfortunately the bomb safety switch isn’t animated in the German planes. Most allied planes have an visible safety switch but also not all, it’s a bit like lottery and in my opinion a gap in the game because the box for that is visible for example in German planes.

Most players ignore the bomb safety switch…. It should simply much more dangerous to fly with a almost armed bomb 😅😅😅

 

And of course the German bomb box of the does not have the diverse functions/animations as in DCS

Oh, and by the way:

 

At all meanwhile you can set separate buttons for armed and disarmed, that eases a little of the pain of the missing animation 😅😅😅

With all the Bf 109s, you can only drop one bomb at a time, like in reality.

Animated German bomb arming switches are still on the list and haven't been forgotten. 🙂
