I normally not work with tail gunners, so just a wild guess, since your models gun faces backward, an your Y pivot faces front then the deffaultyawangle=180 turns the gun around( or vice versa). If you make the gun's pivot facing the other way to the current one, it might work as you intend it. But like I said it is only a guess .

yea  reset to 0 and it faces left then stays there now...its not following the numbers in the data.ini...this is weird...did the same exctly in my B58 and that works fine....odd.and that pivot is same as this..

I remember I read formerly somewhere in the forum that the gun must always be at 0° in the LOD (hidden in the fuselage then).

Is that a He-219 with hi-bypass turbofans????????????

No, this is clearly not the 219th. This is probably something from the "What if?" hangar.
