Nice video :D, do you have any advice on how to improve aim in situations like dives or high speed engagements ? I got trouble hitting targets unless they're slow or in a stall or something.
Practice. It's something you'll eventually get a sense of, like throwing a ball. BnZ planes are the best for practicing shots at oblique angles. Also, make sure to practice with only one gun at a time. For example, if you're trying to get a sense of shooting with M2 .50 cals, only use planes armed with M2s.
@@Renta352 Ah ok. Well at the moment I'm mainly playing Russians and getting the feel of ShVaks. They're a bit awkward to aim sometimes lol. Also do you use vertical targeting for planes with multiple calibers of guns ? Like fw190
I have: - throttle mapped to "W" and "S" - roll mapped to "A" and "D" - yaw mapped to "Q" and "E" - pitch mapped to the buttons on the side of my gaming mouse ...such that all of the aircraft controls are nearby when I'm using WASD and the mouse.
ah, so when your enemy is energy fighting, aim your mouse at him to perform roll with enemy and extend flaps to make enemy overshot. got it, but how to know when to cut throttle without fearing losing air speed?
How to counter an energy fighting enemy depends on the aircraft you're in and what aircraft you're facing. In the Fw.190 vs. Bf.109 example, both aircraft accelerate well in a dive, but the Fw.190 is slightly better at it. So, I could afford to cut throttle for a short while, let the 109 accelerate past me, and then pour on the coals to follow. Energy fighting tactics really exist on a case-by-case level.
My problem is i always chicken out when the enemy knows I'm diving on them and they perform a break. I always pull off and gain alt again as I'm too afraid of over commiting to the attack and being dragged down to the deck.
It's a matter of experience. Eventually you'll get the right approach and you'll know when to commit. Try Do-335 A1 and A0 for practice, They have excellent high speed handling and guns that work very well vs targets pulling hard due to v. high muzzle velocity (MK103, and in case of A1 - MG151 - 15mm, A0 has an option for 20mm and I'd recommend those because MK103 runs out of ammo v. quick and 2 20mm will still get the job done, just with more deflection).
just one thing, i know the symbol on the tail of the plane is historically accurate but they can give you trouble if you edit the video like this. otherwise nice and useful video
Is there any way to actually learn without having to spend 5 minutes flying to the fight every single game? It's incredibly frustrating to repeatedly die to people that clearly know what they are doing when I'm still trying to figure out the basics.
Loved the addition of the phase of combat at the bottom. Haven’t seen it laid out like that before and this is really informative.
I always love seeing your interactions with your squadmates. You bring such good energy to the table, and you are supportive and fun.
Attack phase and defense phase information was definitely a nice addition.. Nice hunting!
It's very cool to see someone put this much effort to making quality guides :)

@@Unused91287 I never use vertical targeting, because the adjustments only work at a certain range when flying level and uninverted.
@@Renta352 Yes, My aim did improve since I turned it off a long time ago lol
You really are a beast, man, making it look so easy. what set up are you using for the controls?
I have:
- throttle mapped to "W" and "S"
- roll mapped to "A" and "D"
- yaw mapped to "Q" and "E"
- pitch mapped to the buttons on the side of my gaming mouse
...such that all of the aircraft controls are nearby when I'm using WASD and the mouse.
You are a really good Focke Wulf Fighter.
Thanks man, this is really helpful.
Why universal ammo belt on both the mg151 and the mg FF?
I thought air targets was best because it has more of the mine shell rounds
I prefer the tracer ratio in universal belts. It helps with my aim.
Hi, I enjoyed this video. Do you sideclimb? If you do, in which planes do you sideclimb in?
No.
Beautiful video. Can we help somehow with your subscriber base? It looks like you should have many more than you do. Keep them coming man!

This is my favourite aircraft
:D
Good hunting!
What key do you push to look around and not turn please!!!???
Press and hold c, the button mapped to "free look" by default in the Controls menu.
Thank you very much. i love watching you fly!!
How do i find out each ideal climbing speed for each plane that i have sir??
Looking up historical references and using a stopwatch to test how long it takes to climb in-game.
just one thing, i know the symbol on the tail of the plane is historically accurate but they can give you trouble if you edit the video like this. otherwise nice and useful video
History must not be erased
The iron cross? Its not even a hate symbol lol
Its the swastika on the tail.
As what @SpecWar71 said; History must not be erased

Try arcade mode or custom games. In customs, you can fight in any gamemode against other players and/or bots, and you have unlimited lives.
how can you fly with such massive balls
this is arcade mode? or realistic mode?
It's Air RB.
Not bad
r u sure u r not Adamtheengineer?😝
Hahaha oh if it was just that easy
my exp in this climb die lucky to get
1 kill even luckier to live but at my
age i suck at most games lol
