Dropping clusters of 4 bombs

[Cardolan]

What is the entry in the key mapping to drop the cluster of 4 50kg (lbs?) bombs that BF 109-E7 loads in the fighter bomber role?

I was surprised when pressing the assigned button that drops the single 250Kg (lbs?) bomb it does not work for the 4 smaller bombs. Can someone help me?

 

Thanks in advance!

It can only drop one bomb at a time.

I have a button on my joystick [Thrustmaster T16000m] which is the bomb select and for the 4x50Kg its just " Click -Click -Click -Click and down they go

Wouldn't work for the Mosquito though - there are time delay is inserted to simulate the crew member having to flick the switch to arm a new bomb in between each release!

 

The sim does a pretty good job of modelling systems, but it isn't advertised well (e.g. some Soviet rockets have two rails wired during part of the sequence - so you fire rockets in pairs and then a group of four at the end - because that is how they ended up having to wire it in real life).

In the Mosquito, you can select different combinations though. If your bomb bay doors are open, you can drop them all at the same time.
