I don't know it seems strange I tried many times but the only way is to have a lean mixture. But if anybody else have this problem I'm doing something wrong...

okay, it might be possible that this is another case of "Hey, the auto-rich mixture setting is actually 'lever down'".

This could become the new Strg+F1 feature :rolleyes:

No I know that rich is lever down. I read somewhere that in reality pilots move the throttle together with the mixture. In this case they lean also the mixture but this is in contradiction with what everyone else is saying: that rich mixture has to be kept... I don't know...

After warming up the engine to at least 60 degrees and with prop pitch set to fine, I, too, have found lean mixture on the Hurri makes it much easier to take off.

On take-offs I haven't yet tried lowering the flaps at all, though.
