"You cannot drop the bombs because of your current planes altitude"

This is so iritating, can somebody point me out on what altitude im meant to? It screws up every dive bomb, i start the divebomb at around 1200, then do the dive, but i try to release the bomb and i get that message, .and i ended up not being able to pull up in time due to the weight of the 1000kg bomb and crashing.

In the picture i tried at a higher altitude but still got the same problem, can anybody tell me what i'm doing wrong?

Yep at extreme angles (Like 90 degrees to the ground or Rolled over) you cannot drop bombs.

It's your attitude as pointed out by Agent Z. When you hit around a 90 degree angle downwards, on an steep sidways angle, or upsidedown, you can not drop your bombs. It's easy to missread it as "altitude" and I think it used to say "you can not drop bombs at your aircrafts current angle" or something similar.

drop on your uplift-zenith-the transition between dive and rise-imagine the bombs a tail-it need a whiplash to be slingshot-basically-dump ya load-from the rear''''-i made myself laugh''

I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be somewhere around 30-45 degrees, maybe a hit steeper.

Your angle is Way too steep

Depends on the aircraft. The Ju 87's used a wide dive range of 60 all the way to a direct 90 degree dive angle. In a simple description, spot, roll, steep dive, drop, and pull up (or let the reihenabwurfgeraet pull the plane back and set it back to normal if you were to pass out).

But you have to be on a REALY steep angle to not let you drop it in WT. Just a few degrees up and he can drop it fin (and even then he would easily hit the target).

Well, i am pretty new to war thunder so thanks for helping me out on that, ill try not to dive to steep.
