Can you get the artificial horizon back? No. With your last remaining engine gone so went the generator supplying electrical power to keep the instruments gyros energised.

In this case you should have gone to limited panel; use your Airspeed Indicator, Vertical Speed Indicator, Compass and Turn and Slip indicators, scanning each for a second in swift and regular pattern to try and inform you what the a/c is doing.

It's called flying limited panel and is very hard. It will take practise.

I didn't even think about the fact I lost the other engine so all power was gone.

But to be frank I was in alot of trouble even before the engine went out.

 

I have heard about limited panel flying before but its over my head/too advanced

I just watched a video about the radial scan and i think that will help alot, instead of relying  on just one instrument.

I look away and the artificial horizon line is gone. Pretty much could be upside down for all I know at this point.

anyway of getting that line back quick?

Here is an example

 

[Stuka lands in village street to avoid fighter]

il2 battle of Stalingrad

 

- crashes 'n' fails

[Graphics issues]

I have a 1050ti

If I find a problem I usually just revert to a older version of driver.

I agree the 1050ti isnt the best card but it can get you by on high settings

 

 

[under attack and landing. Should you continue landing?]

some more il-2 battle of stalingrad crashes. This time mainly engine fires

[he-111 chased by yaks]

Its was like a flying torch I like the black smoke but it does bog my pc down abit

 

 

[Battle of stalingrad : crashes, kills and explosions.]

Been flying alot with the ju-87, particularly with the the mounted twin 37mm cannon. They are not so easy to use, especially against moving targets such as tanks.
Here is some sorties that didn't work out to well.

That last one in the Yak was as good as I've ever seen a Danger Dog pull off. For the emergency landings in a damaged aircraft, you are better off forgetting about the landing gear all together, it's more harm than help on rough ground. IIRC the Stuka had a charge to blow the gear off for just this reason. (I don't think it's in the game though)

I never knew about that with the Stuka. That would be awesome if they added that to the game.

here is a collection of some more heavy landings I think i use abit too much flaps

[Off field landings]

usually when I do off-field landings the plane pitches forward and destroys the prop. Maybe 1 out of 10 I don't destroy the prop. Any suggestions on howto improve that % would be great.

Nice video Grant.

Can I make a suggestion?  Instead of making a new thread each time you post a video, why not just add a new video to one of your existing threads?  Then we can keep track of it all a bit better.

S!

sure ill do that

 

 

[pilots bailing out under fire]

il-2 has good flight damage model, but i like the bail out animations aswell. Think it would be great if they added some more variation in pilot appearance.

Like the HE111 landing at 5.10

I got to learn to put it down lightly

Its fun trying to limp back to base after getting shot up!

 

[Aircraft Pilot's notes and engine management guide]

I see Combat power is limited to 30 minutes what happens if you go over that?>

 

is it an engine overheat? or oil pressure problem?

I didn't know that they were using the merlin engines.
