In 2017 that latter released an improved version of the game under the name IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover - Blitz which started the so called Dover series.

It was originally developed by the Russian software house 1C:Maddox Games but since 2012 it is under development by Team Fusion Simulations. In this case I am messing around an airbase, showing my finely tuned braking abilities.IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover is a World War II combat flight simulator released in 2011.

The regular keystroke 'B' is just for full braking and will most likely end in a tip over after landing.

In this picture I trimmed the aircraft for a very slow approach speed.ДЄnother control to put into an axis: wheel brakes. The difference between an axis and just the keystrokes is very noticeable. I mapped my elevator trim to an axis in my Warthog HOTAS. Everywhere, including here.ДЄnd just to add some extra value to this blog entry, a couple of tips that will help you much flying aircraft in Cliffs of Dover.Д®levator trim is very important to be relied on key pressing.

Be wary of the 'internet specialists' hanging out there in forums who are very good at looking important by using second hand buzzwords they don't even understand. My advice is to get the book and read it. Which makes sense given that the propeller pitch has an impact on the amount of air pushed back into the slipstream.ДЄnd that's pretty much it for today. To achieve this, it was very important to adjust the propeller pitch at ~ 50%. I've tried that in Cliffs of Dover and there was my Spitfire, cruising at 200 mph straight and level. There also a mention of staying off the rudder, giving the opportunity to stretch the legs to improve blood circulation.

In any case, many versions of the Spitfire's pilot manual have an explicit mention that at 200 mph, the aircraft will cruise in a very stable manner needing very sporadic inputs to the ailerons or elevator. That explains why the Spitfire has a rudder trim and not an aileron trim? I wonder.

Much to my surprise, I've learned that old timers would use the rudder to counter the banking tendency of aircraft of that era. In chapter 8, the 'other torque' effects are dissected, including the spiraling slipstream and gyroscopic precession. The caveats of believing the most popular explanation are masterfully explained in 'Stick and Rudder', by Wolfgang Langewiesche. Try it in the Spitfire, you will find that most of the times it shows a tendency to bank to the right. The most popular theory about that is that the 'torque' of the spinning engine causes a reaction that results in the aircraft rolling and banking in the opposite direction.ДЄlthough the torque by the engine exists and poses a great danger under certain flight conditions, in near cruising conditions the banking tendency is mostly not due to torque. Thanks!ДЄnybody who flew a single propeller aircraft has noticed the tendency to bank, even when the aircraft is not climbing or diving. By the way, the awesome Team Fusion mod, now version 4.31, has tamed the angry birds of the original Cliffs of Dover into a stable, visually impeccable and worthy WWII flight simulator.
