csThor 675 Posted August 9, 2014 Finally finished with the abbreviated Pilot's Manual for the Ju 87 D-3. It's based on the original operational manual for the aircraft, just cut down to what can be done in BoS. Quick note: Because of the strange (and wrong) way BoS currently models engine limits make sure you do not use the 1-minute-power setting for anything but take-off and potential emergencies. Otherwise the engine will blow regularly. Kurzbetriebsanleitung Junkers Ju 87 D-3 für den Flugzeugführer - english.pdf 20 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I./ZG1_Dutchvdm 330 Posted April 21, 2017 Good manual. I have no trouble with engine management, but with the 87 i always wondered about what would be a nice economical setting. Thnx M Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thnx M 75% cruise power with full tank of fuel last 5 hours (how much more economy do you want :D) 2100 RPM 1.15 ata i think Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I./ZG1_Dutchvdm 330 Posted May 8, 2017 hello where I could be wrong? I blow the engine also with 2250 rpm and 1.15 ata Are you keeping temperatures in check? The engine does tend to overheat quiet fast. Grt M Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oppolo 2 Posted May 8, 2017 thanks for answer, yes and the instrument on the right is almost 130 degrees...but if I decrease rpm or ata for lowering temperature I cant climbimb and I have only 1000 kg bombs, not 1800...what could I do? I have radiators on automatic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have radiators on automatic The Stuka doesn't have automatic radiators, so you might want to check that. And yes it doesn't climb well with a big bombload but that won't suprise anyone. You can reduce fuel load since you don't need all that on the BOX maps. Grt M 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oppolo 2 Posted May 8, 2017 thanks a lot for assist,it was fault of water and oil radiators, now I have set the buttons and I can fly with this Ju 87 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

III/SG77S-Falke 6 Posted December 28, 2018 I just started re-learning the JU-87 and though I can take it off and land it I couldn't figure out why the plane would fish-tail so much in either case. Turns out, I forgot to lock the tail-wheel. Your manual was very helpful in reminding me of what I had done previously... 😊 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
