Do the gunners work automatically as they do in IL-2 or does something need to be set up there. I noticed after I made a successful bomb run in my 110 that a Hurricane got on top of me and I never heard my gunner react.

I can tell you for sure, that your gunner will shoot at enemies, but i do not know at which distances he will start shooting em. My guess it´s at convergence, but that´s something i´ve to test first.

I bet you had moved into the gunners position earlier.

There seems to be a problem if you jump into the gunner's position and get out again, the gunner does not return to automatic mode.

I have not confirmed it myself but I never switch into the gunner's position and I have the privilidge of my gunner informing me about any enemy planes approaching (on a ME110) and keeps tracking them with his head and gun.

not necessarily, i flew 110 once on ATAG and the tailgunner didn´t shoot until the enemy was very very close. and i didn´t jump into that position, i was busy staying alive :D
