Out of combat
Startup
- RPM 100%
- Throttle 10-15%
- Yaw trimmer strongly to the right (30-50% according to your preference)
- Begin engine startup sequence
Takeoff
- Open the radiators for the initial climb to altitude (20% in winter, 60% in summer)
- Smoothly throttle up to full power
- Takeoff speed is around 100-120mph
