Don't know much about the 111 if anything  but I would say Feather Prop  NO flaps max power and hope you have a lot of altitude to start with ! Anyone ! Nice footage btw

wombat do you know if the he 111 can even fly extended periods with only one engine?

You dont use rudder trim to younter the left engine pull, that's why your aircraft enters a sideslip creating massive drag. Incase of engine failure you have to do the following:

 

1. Adjust rudder trim to counter the working engine's pull (watch you bank indicator)

2. Increase engine power to combat.

3. Drop all leftover ordinances.

4. Feather the dead engine's propellor.

5. Close the dead engine's cooling flaps (water, oil, cowling)

6. Fly level and climb only at shallow angles.

7. When required to turn keep the working engine on the inside of the turn and bank at a shallow angle.

 

All german bombers are capeable of single engined flight. In combat heavy damage migh put restrictions on single engined flight.

Without searching forums I would say no given its size and resistance

Not true. German bombers were designed to handle single engined flight for extended periods if not overloaded or too damaged.

I tend to agree with this also. I also tend to never hold altitude when engine goes out

Take a look at Requiem's videos on multi-engine principles:

• Principles #13 - Multi-Engine Basics
• Principles #14 - Multi-Engine Advanced

Requiem's videos are very helpful. Here's another He 111-specific trick on page 68:
