The keys are " Einachsiger Autopilot - Modi durchschalten" single axis auto-pilot switch modi
"Einachsiger Autopilot - Kurs nach links anpassen" single axis autopilot - adjust course to the left
"Einachsiger Autopilot - Kurs nach rechts anpassen" single axis autopilot - adjust course to the right

You trim the plane for level flight and switch on the autopilot.
Now you adjust the course until the autopilot - instrument has the moving marking under the center of the 3 fixed vertical markings.
Now let the plane settle.
With minuscule course adjustments you can steer your plane relatively stable.
Your joystick is still active! leave it alone!
Now go to bombardier, do your adjustments and look as far forward as possible.
Do your course adjustments very careful and wait for the plane to settle.
good luck!

What you are explaining has some merit to it... I will try it out. But I wanted to avoid hitting Auto pilot and have the plane radically change course or the engine settings to be changed. But if it functions this way and I can pickle my bombs... then what the hell.

But you would need a long time to set up your bombing run. I mean a very long time right?

At least I have something ro do now.

Tricky but it functions
Pretty good tip!

yep, but with this kind of support for online bomberpilots the diveability of the Ju88 will be a very often used feature...

well, one could play together with a friend as bombardier, he can command you via teamspeak.
Next time you are the bombardier
See it as "slightly enforced teamwork" ;-D
And for the long time needed, that should be no problem with the full sized map
Final approach to target 50 to 100 km.

I got this to work before the patch but after the patch I cant seem to get it to work.
Has anyone used this after the patch?
