Bf110 landing gear and quick take off

The tail wheel rises itself when you reach a proper speed. But the plane just can't reach that speed. Actually, I could drive to the target, if I had time and a bridge over the channel

I made an edit to that post if you what to take another look

edit: assign a key to full power and another key to full pitch, use them and see if you get the RPM's

Prop pitch: I'll check it again, but I don't think that a wrong pitch, even sail position, can reduce the rpm from 2500 (normal full throttle) to about 1300.

Throttle calibration: it can't do that, as it works perfectly when I start the mission with engine off, or even in flight.

Since only a problem for you, then you have something wrong with game or controls

I tried again and it was in effect the prop pitch... In scramble mode, the aircraft starts with a pitch of 9,50 instead of 12,00, and this affects so much the RPM. Strange that this happens only with Bf110. Thanks to all of you for your answers and, above all, for your patience

That's why you fly with a wingman

Glad you got your problem sorted, see you in the skies
