One just has to be patient as a mechanical system with a slow reaction (dampening) is simulated. No instant success like in 1946.

Interesting. Could your provide some details please?
The reason i'm asking is that i keep pressing the key i have mapped to it but i don't even get the kind of confirmation that i get for other controls (the blue text on the right-hand side of the screen that tells me for example, that i switched my fuel tanks to main or turned on my lights, etc). Maybe it is tied to the realism setting for bombs, preventing us from using it if the setting is on? I'm just guessing here by the way.
I'm also very interested to see the implementation you describe, since in the real thing most of the times the manuals advised pilots to trim for level flight before engaging the autopilot and not expect it to work all by itself.
I can't wait to start experimenting with some level bombing
