Most of the time I use the rule of thumb for using 90% pitch and 90% power with rads maybe open to 2 or 4. Sometimes I'll back off the power a bit more but as soon as I'm in attack position I usually increase to 100% pitch and 100% power when needed.
The Hs129 doesn't have a huge power reserve so you need to push the engines sometimes and plan your manoeuvring so that you maintain some energy prior to coming around for another attack.
