Drop a SINGLE bomb?

Is there a way to drop a SINGLE bomb when loading the stock Hellcat with the two heavy bombs?

While flying, I press the configured key to cycle to the bomb/ordnance a single time, and then I press the configured key to drop the bomb a single time, but BOTH bombs are released every time.

Is this by design, or am I missing something here?

Rich, it goes like this, if the bombs are set to salvo, they are config'd like so:

[PAYLOAD.4]
; Payload = Bombs Heavy
mount.2=WEP_DB_f4u1d_wing_pylon_sway_braces_a, 1, -1
mount.3=WEP_DB_US_1000lb_GP_a, 1, 5
mount.4=WEP_DB_f4u1d_wing_pylon_sway_braces_a, 1, -1
mount.5=WEP_DB_US_1000lb_GP_a, 1, -1

You see that mount 3 drops with mount 5 in salvo, which has its own singular trigger of -1.

By giving both mounts their own separate triggers, you config individual drops, like so:

[PAYLOAD.4]
; Payload = Bombs Heavy
mount.2=WEP_DB_f4u1d_wing_pylon_sway_braces_a, 1, -1
mount.3=WEP_DB_US_1000lb_GP_a, 1, -1
mount.4=WEP_DB_f4u1d_wing_pylon_sway_braces_a, 1, -1
mount.5=WEP_DB_US_1000lb_GP_a, 1, -1

Many thanks for the info, bearcat241! That makes perfect sense, now :)

P.S. I meant to say "Hellcat" in my first post (not Corsair).
