Any tip would be appreciated.

I found the tip of quickly turn on/off autopilot to lock tailwheel a tremendous help while warming up.

According to Blackdog and Fleas manual I should take off with rads closed but that doesn't work for me. Overheat before tailwheel lifts.
Real pilotmanuals dont help much in game , and in the Blenheim even less!
You have to start with open cowlingflaps. I personally start with flaps down (unfortunatly you can set them only between full out and in ) and tray to keep the engine rpm between 2200&2300......not much, i know, but so i am at 90% of my starts on the save side.

Sa alread said, this plane needs a second look from 1C, even more important as it is the only RAF bombcarrier in game.
