As you can see it does not have yellow rudder but camouflage and style of mottle are differ from side to side [larger on port side]. But you are right and other planes from units very possible have yellow rudder [or maybe light blue]

Another image which interest me is this one:



Any idea about the place and unit?

Cheers
Of course, you're right - now I'm back at home and have the prints to hand, it appears it has no yellow rudder

The second picture, Yellow 12+- of 6./SG10 was photographed at Neubiberg.

II./SG10 aircraft I've positively ID'ed at Neubiberg were marked:

6./SG10: Yellow 1+-, 2+-, 11+-, 12+-, 13+-, 14+-

Interesting points are Yellow 11+-, WNr 681330, was an Fw 190A-8 fitted with a F-type R1 wing and 11+-, 12+- and 13+- all had previous unit markings overpainted (III. gruppe 7+| for Yellow 11+-, unknown for 12+- and 13+-). Yellow 2+- had a dark rudder (poss. in a primer?)

Stab.II./SG10: Green <<+-, <o+- (an Fw 190F-9, WNr 440401)

I probably have more if I dig deeper into my files, but it's getting late and these tired old eyes need a rest!

Cheers,
Chris
