Great stuff. Thanks Sheriff. They're a GREAT addition to Req's videos as they go deeper into the machines. NOT that I haven't used the plane but a refresher is always a great thing.
Just picked this plane up and it's real fun to fly but feels so slow compared to german aircraft, I'm hoping there will be a video for combat tips in the future.
Hopefully the improved fuel system that the devs are working on, which will bring things such as drop tanks, will also allow us to manually operate fuel gauges.
Thx for the video and work...i am curious for the engine management video..i hope... then it is possible, to bring back the Spitfire to the airfiled...most time i walk.
I think you are confused about the compass. It is for setting a course and following it. You set the compass to show the direction you want to go at the top then turn the aircraft until the Needle (which points NORTH) is inside the two lines. In real life it was also used to calibrate the gyro when it drifted away (by turning the dial to match the needle instead of the other way around). It was horrible and was basically a ships compass shoehorned into an aircraft.
@@SheriffsSimShack Sorry. I see now that you were just describing the bodged way that 1C had put it in. I think they had to make the needle work backwards in order to make it point at a useful number. I know either Cliffs Of Dover or DCS has a working P8 compass with an adjustable dial and a way to recalibrate the Directional Indicator (though to be honest, it is a real pain :-) )
After watching you and your unindicted FTC co-conspirators murdering Spitfires in later videos I decided I needed to watch this series to learn how to avoid sharing your innocent victims’ fates.
@@SheriffsSimShack Dammit..alright guess thats what im getting lol. Hopefully they put out an early war western campaign. not nessesarily battle of britian but perhaps north africa. Id love a defence of egypt campaign as the british. (or any pacific campaigns at all)
At the end of the video, you can see the Spitfire lie down in order to gather strength for the next sortie.
lmao
I’ve been waiting on a Spit How To for a while because that’s the plane I enjoy the most. Thanks for this.
Happy to see this serie back
You making these videos is great for the il2 community, I learned so much from them when I was starting years ago.

Sweet! I missed your how-to series. I know these are time intensive for you to write and compose, so thanks for taking the time!
HI Sheriff, thank you for this great vid. I'm looking forward to the rest. Have a nice day.

I'm not far off my first foray into DCS. Great encouragement. Thanks!
I think a dcs tutorial would help you more :)
@@SheriffsSimShack Any suggestions?
I don't play dcs. But i am sure Google will help :)
@@kiwihame Can't go wrong with Redkite. Grim Reapers also have a lot of tutorials on just about anything in DCS
great stuff as always sheriff
I hoped you might do this one day , I am looking forward to seeing more great job.

Nice, thanks. These 'how to' vids are great.
I love the tempest but I hate how the compass is right behind the stick, pretty much the only thing I don't like about it
I really enjoy your content. Thank you.
Love these How-to videos!
👍🏻 thanks for the content, very good like always. May i ask what kind of hardware you are using?

May i ask the screen/video settings for wartunder, your content always looks great 👍🏻.

Correct. But we can't calibrate. The t shaped indicator ia pointing the wrong way

Correct. But if the needle would point north it would be useful.
Is this the one from Battle of Bodenplatte or Normandy?
the mark 9 i believe is Boden Platte dlc on steam version and il-2 s stand alone
@@RigstersJourney Cool so I already have this one
@@TheWhoamaters yes should be able to fly it :). long as you have that dlc regardless of standalone or steam :D.
@@RigstersJourney Yeah I got it
Once the IX series is done will you do Griffon?
1. Advice, don't drink alcohol or else you get motion sickness from spitfire wobble behaviour if you only fly axis planes all the time xD
Wobble dee wobble dee wop. I can't fly anything but the Spit. Once you've tasted the butter, you can't go back to margarine.

Excellent and invaluable review as usual! Superbly done. (".)7
