The correctly angle is adjusted by Wimperis bombsight, based in TAS and ALTITUDE inputs
The only data you need convert is IAS >TAS

If one dont have a Smartphone and since Wimperis accept speed imputs only in 10 to 10 increments, a hand calculator is sufficient to convert IAS in TAS. Add 2% of IAS for each 1000 feets of ALTITUDE.
