Default IL-4 flight model

Interesting plane, hauls a good load but slower than He111 series. I can't seem to trim it up, always wants to pitch up. Once bombs gone it lurches up when you turn off level stabilizer. The AV circling torpedo is now calibrated into the bomb sight, great weapon once you get used to it. Supercharger and fuel mix change around 4000m, cruises at 80% power 2200 rpm at a decent 260kph indicated.

Makes for a good torpedo plane as well, from low to high altitude if using the circling torpedo.

We need cockpits for the earlier DB-3 to complete the package.
