Controlling the fight and not giving the enemy any opportunities
Not a very exciting clip, but I'm happy with how I handled my plane defensively. My gunnery and offensive flying leaves a lot to be desired, but we're getting there slowly but surely.
Not bad for a 2v1 situation and being able to serve one of the Spitfires up for an ally. I also kept them from noticing the stricken BF110 from the beginning of the clip. I got a glimpse of the 110 as they were egressing below the engagement. -- Watch live at www.twitch.tv/blackcatactual

Really tested my patience because there were other contacts in the area I wanted to shoot down, but I wanted this P51 first.

    I think you made a mistake at 7:06 that's worth analyzing. You make a pass on the mosquito, no hits, that's fine. But then as you overshoot him, you turn towards him which puts you right in front of him. Then you reverse your turn and put yourself in front of him again. At that point you're in a scissors with him which means you're wasting energy maneuvering.

    Hi Are you associated to Frog Actual? I note on the forum he said he lost access to his IL-2 purchases on steam. I note this was a few days after I myself was banned again from multiplayer. I criticised Enigma on the 13th July, then on the 14h July I found my multiplayer list was empty.... Then about 5 days later (19th??) Frog Actual's post in the forum. Looks like support closed his ticket without resolving the issue. To me it looks like Frog Actual has been unfairly and erroneously targeted by the 1C company for simple similarity in name to myself, even though there is zero connection between he and I....

    • @blackcatactual
      @blackcatactual 6 дней назад

      Keyword is "somewhat" Kills can still be stolen in IL2. If you shoot off someone's rudder and they fall to the deck and hit the ground, they count as your kill. However, if you do the same and someone else shoots them before they hit the ground, it counts as an assist. It's why people still dive at falling planes. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  • @cutthroatawesome
    @cutthroatawesome 8 дней назад

    So I'll just throw out a few things. I will say I don't have much experience flying the 152 but here's everything I can think of. If turn performance seems worse than expected the first thing to consider is weight i.e. fuel. Again I'm not too familiar with this plane but based on the stats the full fuel is heavier (relatively) than some other planes. e.g. full fuel load 388 kg 190 D9 and 736 kg for TA-152. I couldn't get a great look at your fuel gauge but it looks to me like your fuel level is quite high. Second is battle damage. Obviously only matters after you took that hit towards the end and certainly when it caused the wing to break off. Some say that the adjustable stabilizer matters. If wing stalling is your problem then the stabilizer shouldn't be the problem since it should only increase elevator authority but a lot of folks like to go tail heavy on the trim while turning. That's about all I can think of.

    • @blackcatactual
      @blackcatactual 8 дней назад

      I've had some help since this flight and I had the following problems. 1. Not turning coordinated. IE not using the rudder. There is a lot of nose yaw in my rolls, which shows this. 2. I was on full fuel, yes, which I should have reduced given how efficient the TA152 is with its fuel load. 3. After taking hits, my wings snapped. Which I failed to notice early enough to bail out as there was no audio cue. 4. It's quite well documented that the P47's flaps are busted in this game and turn it into a UFO. I've used the TA152 since and have done better with it. Thank you for your help though,

    • @blackcatactual
      @blackcatactual 12 дней назад

      This was maybe the 1st or 2nd time I flew up in the 51. I rarely get to fly allies because the allied player population is always higher than the Axis side during late war and I don't want to add to the imbalance. If I had my preference, I would fly the following planes as often as I could: P38 P51 Spitfire BF109 FW190 TA152 I often find myself in the 190, especially the Dora, because I rather like the way it dives and rolls. In a high speed dive, you can roll with anyone and pull sharp to get guns on, which can catch a pilot out if they aren't careful.

      It was an annoying and frustrating dogfight. The plane kept constantly wing-stalling at the slightest elevator input and I couldn't understand why. It had never behaved this way with me before. I was flying it the day prior with no issues like this, turning hard in dogfights with Spitfires so I really don't know why it's getting out-turned by a P47 suddenly.

  • @traffic-2413
    @traffic-2413 19 дней назад

    Good content. The P38 can effectively outclimb just about everything at 4100ft/min below 10k. So if you have energy, don't get trapped into a deck turn fight. Hit and run tactics work best. I have a couple hundred hours on Combat Box in the P38 in VR. It's plenty capable when flown correctly. Good job on the video.
