See the UV Mapping, Texturing, Bump Mapping and Reflection Mapping section below. It is still a work in progress as it still needs to have a lot of normal mapping and livery work done.
Do not exceed 61 inHG Mainfold Pressure (military power), except 71 inHG for maximum of 7 minutes (war emergency power).Do not exceed 3000 rpm military power (aerobatics).If the supercharger speed switch is at AUTOMATIC the supercharger gear ratio will be controlled by an automatic system.The mixture control is also automatic if it is set in the RUN position.It will hold 46 inHg to about 30,000 feet. The throttle has automatic boost controls and will hold the manifold pressure setting as long as the supercharger has enough boost to provide the selected setting.You will need to start removing right rudder trim almost as soon as you leave the ground and rudder trim will continue to change significantly up to about 275MPH indicated. All of the take off trim settings will need to be adjusted as you pick up speed so this will contribute to a high pilot work load during the take off and climb out.Be careful to avoid stalling or loosing air speed as the gear is retracted. As you raise the gear the trim will change in a nose up direction.If the aircraft is light you can rotate at slower speeds but never below 120 mph (short field only). If the aircraft is heavy rotate at 150 mph.Stay on top of rudder and elevator with small adjustments and keep the nose down until rotation or you'll do a ground loop.As you gain speed the amount of rudder correction to the right will need to be decreased and you may need to use left rudder depending on how much right rudder trim you set.
Once the tail is up increase throttle to 61 inHG.The tail will start to lift and the airplane will want to go to the left as the tail is coming up. At about 50 MPH indicated start releasing stick back pressure.Be ready to actuate rudder during the take off roll particularly if there is a cross wind.Slowly increase throttle to 40 inHG Manifold Pressure as you pick up speed.
P 51 COCKPIT FULL
Initially hold the tail down with full aft stick.
