I mean you can only increase mixture as far as you've had increased your throttle to a certain degree, right? Whats the best settings for which situation?
I always leave the mixture as it is for takeoff, once You're in the air the idea is to set the mixture until you see a small blue flame coming from your engine. Bear in mind that as you go above 17000 feet you will have to throttle back somewhat to achieve this whatever your mix settings.
