That is something that can be adjusted as well in the loadout screen - if it worked. Just don't forget to adjust it for every single gun once they have it fixed.

yeah but i dont know the meaning of it.as i understand,the horizontal covergence is the distance when the bullets shot of each gun, would "meet" each other in one point.meaning the guns aim to the center of the longitudinal axis of the plane.but the vertical??since the guns are placed at the same "height" i dont understand it.

It's simple: Bullets don't travel in a straight line but in a ballistic curve. The point of convergence thus is the spot where the bullet meets the theoretically elongated point of sight through your gunsights.

If you set the convergence to 200 meters horizontally they will converge at 200 meters but will land long of their target at the default vertical convergence i.e 300 meters. So they actually disperse again before they reach the vertical point of convergence.

If you have i.e. a tendency of not leading the target enough, this can help you score hits in your convergence.

That's why it needs to be set horizontally and vertically.

Thumbs up

If you put a dead zone in the axes and rudder of about 5 and set sensetivity to 0 aiming will be better.

On the joystick? Or the IR?

maybe you played some other games than counterstrike, or battlefield. or maybe you shot a gun by yourself.

bullets always drop down and dont fly in a straight line. the vertical conversion makes the bullet going up and meet a special point at the specific distance. for example. You got a normal gunsight. put the vertical conversion to 500 meters. you shoot. the bullets fly a little over the middle of your gunsight and finally pass the middle of it at 500 meters
