Fuhrer_Squiggles Posted September 5, 2017 Posted September 5, 2017 A friend and I have been trying to get Stukas safely off the ground. When we take off we experience sharp pulls either to the left or right. Correcting these turns just throws the plane in the other direction. Is there a takeoff procedure that we are missing with this aircraft? Yes, I am new to the forum. I just wanted to see if there was some information that could render the game to be a more enjoyable experience. This is the only plane I have had troubles with. I have come close to botching the Ju 88 hah, but the Stuka is a new game to me.

indiaciki Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 (edited) I made a video with max payload take off - empty is the same just much easier. Watch the rudder. Internal / external. The Ju-87 is very simple to fly. Just watch the engine. It is fragile. I love this plane. I use it for sightseeing. A very benign plane. Take off: Fun Landing: Edited September 6, 2017 by indiaciki
Fuhrer_Squiggles Posted September 6, 2017 Author Posted September 6, 2017 Thanks for the replies. Yeah, I need to use the flaps for takeoff. That has helped with the swaying.
indiaciki Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 (edited) keep your flaps longer when climbing and don't climb too steep. First gain speed. Here's an english flight manual: https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/9001-ju-87-d-3-abbrev-pilots-manual/ III. Take-Off 1. Roll stright for a few meters to align tail wheel, then set tail wheel arrestor to 'lock' 2. Check that flaps are in 'Take-Off' position 3. RPM control lever fully forward 4. Smoothly increase throttle until max 5. 1-min-setting: 2600 RPM at 1.40 ata 6. After lifting off immediately pull back throttle and RPM control lever to 30-minute-setting of 1.25 ata at 2400 RPM 7. Do not retract flaps until reaching a certain altitude (ca 200m) and V0 = 180 km/h because the aircraft will lose altitude when the flaps are being retracted 8. Reduce power setting no later than 30 minutes after Take-Off to maximum continous output (2250 RPM at 1.15 ata) Edited September 6, 2017 by indiaciki
