He111 takeoff

[seacondor]

How do you takeoff in the He111p? I have tried 20x to get it off the ground.:confused:
Nothing works. It just won't lift off. The AI aircraft do.
It has default bomb load and is on a concrete runway.
Can someone give me a few tips?

long runway... take off speed about 170 - 180 kph... flaps at 0.2-0.3 ... dont climb too sharply!

I flew the he111-p with 8x250 lb bombs!

Full tank of gas

Thanks for the reply. Can you tell me which airfield you used?

Ok

Had a play about on fmb and choose 7 air bases at random... created spawn points etc etc...

On testing... DONT USE 2 to 6 - clearly designed for fighters lol - blow up everytime trying to spawn!

However blue 1 & 7 are ok :D

Did the same load... 8 bombs, full tank of gas... and took off...

If you look at the personal load outs, you will notice that if you have full fuel and 8 bombs, the aircraft is technically (from what the game says) over weight... so maybe have less fuel in the aircraft will help!

Attached is a movie track i made plus the map (all bases in france - the two bases you want are Boisjean ecuries and calais marck)

Take off video from youtube, found it interesting myself...

I hope the team can make 'better'/ more take off procedures or training missions

I'll let you know what they are after some other members might possibly spot the mistakes also.
