| - | The Ju-88 has two Jumo 211-B-1 engines that use a variable pitch prop controlled by an electric motor. It has a two mode autopilot that controls just the rudder in mode 1 (course); or controls rudder, aileron, and elevator in mode 2 (22) for level bombing. This bomber also has dive brakes that let you dive bomb at high angles with an automatic pull-out for pin-point accuracy. The 88 is equipped with aileron, rudder, and elevator trim. | + | The Ju-88 has two Jumo 211-B-1 engines that use a variable pitch prop controlled by an electric motor.
