You can make it blue by changing mixture setting. (     )

Also airplanes don't have mufflers.

Silly you, but not as silly as me, I thought it was maybe pictures of a Scottish girl taking her kit off

I thought the way to to that was to listen for rpm drop with altitude gain and lean until max rpms are achieved. I'm a little confused. What exactly is best power mixture used for combat. Do I lean after initial climb to achieve blue flame even though the rpm will go down?

It's hard to hear those small varaitions in rpm (if they are modelled that smoothly at all), but you can look at the tachometer and see if you can make out the rise and fall in rpm. This was the easy way to do it in RoF, however, you can't do that easily with a plane that has a constant speed propeller, where the pitch governor is constantly correcting to maintain a constant rpm. However, the governor always lags just a Little behind, and you can actually see the small fluctuations just at the moment you adjust mixture.

 

It's not that easy to do however, at it definately limits your situational awareness when you have to focus on the tachometer every time you adjust mixture. It's propably better to watch the flames in solo flight and just memorize the approximate settings for different altitudes.

Easiest way to remember it is, Rich orange colour = rich mixture
