The American pilots in WW2 had the same problems as we see here; the corsairs were heavier and much faster than the zeros (in a dive). The yanks decided to use that fact. They'd start from high and dive through the Zeros firing at one in particular then continue the dive and fall away; at speed. Then they'd use the speed to climb back up too far from the zeros for them to do anything about it and repeat.
Thanks for doing the corsair again guys, I had the fortunate encounter with a naval classmate of Robert Hampton Gray it has been one of my favorite aircraft since.
I really struggle with those .50 cals for some reason. I have tried adjusting convergence but no matter what I do I can't get above 10% hit rate. I can't blame the Corsair either because it is the same with the P-47 and P-51. I just don't get along with those guns!
This looks like fun.... because of work i kinda gave up sim, but next year im building a rig, and if you guys still fly and have a spot maybe i will join
Japan started WW2 with the Zero as the main fighter of the IJN, by 1944 when the US was invading Saipan it was still the main fighter of the Navy.....that is like the USA using the F4F Wildcat and the P-40 as their main fighter in 1944 and 1945, not the same model but upgraded. still would be no match against late war German planes. Wonder what was going to any Japanese pilot that started the war in the Zero and then watching Americans replace their F4F for F6F Hellcats. must have been insane
One suggestion, try to aim more ahead of the plane you're attacking. You played War Thunder before right? Where they have those circle things in arcade mode in which directs you to accurately shooting a target, might actually hit more stuff then.
Yeah, please specify that, don't just go "you". I do apply a bunch of effects with Audacity. I would be willing to elaborate further, just message me on Discord if you want more details :)
Ah, Hayabusas... the one thing *even more agile* than a Zero. And a better climber as well. Thankfully they only have 2 12.7mm's, they really need to stick with you to get good shots in. *watches Typhun get shot down with a short burst* Well, most of the time. >_> Also... I can't believe I heard this: "Could just be that the Corsair sucks!" - Shoot that man! SHOOT HIM!
@@Fishyyy A Ki-84 Hayate/"Frank"?! *gulp* Yeah that would be a wholy different caliber of enemy... one of the best performing japanese fighters, not as good a turner as the more well known ones(at least without using it's butterfly flaps) but fast, great acceleration and climb as well as good diving characteristics, even if high speed ease of control can't begin to compare to most US fighters. I'd rate it as overall superior to the Corsair when not troubled by unreliable engines and sub-par quality avgas. Yeah, that's an opponent where the Corsair should never slow down below 400 kph to be safe. Would also explain why they looked a bit chunkier than I am used to from Ki-43's. ^^
yeah, if you get shot down though no ones gonna come to rescue you after you plunge into the ocean. if its too out of the way of your carrier or other ships so imagine how terrifying it is to know you will be suffering a torturously slow agonizing death from exhaustion and dehydration over the next 5 - 6 days? war irl is a fucking nightmare
maybe it's just me but i think the corsairs are the worst planes in the game, it just seems slower than zeros unless you're in a dive (i've just been caught by a zero) and no other plane gets into a stall and spin so easily, as well as this you can't even see out the back so i'm watching this to see what i'm doing wrong
We are not trying to talk like americans, that's just our english. Cannot swear on RUclips, we will get demonetized. I actively cut out the curse words.
21:55 was my favorite "Come on!!!"....*BOOM*
I just started flight sims and man there is so much to learn
Grew up watching Baa Baa Black Sheep ... so glad to see a Corsair mission
I like your Pacific online missions!

Excellent video
those gun cameras are genius idea
This is the best vid you made
Amazing
Great video !!!

Yup a k45 toryu
I have IL 2 1946 and it has nothing like this. How do I get this?
How do you do the audio like that?
How do I join you guys?
How do you look around like that, like that smoothly?
Track IR or something similar, probably
He uses TrackIR I think.
TrackIR5 according to his info.
The Visual Mod smoothes the camera. Funny how three people's responses are all wrong.
@@Fishyyy Still its trackir, and how did you change the view distance so you can see the planes further than standard?

20mn avant de voir apparaître les avions ennemis, ça fait beaucoup de tps perdu.
Hey this is amazing. Also was wondering where you find your 10km view distance mod?
You can change it in your config in. Standard you just cant see the planes at all untill there on your tail.
Name mod please. Thanks
Read description, please. Thanks

Are you freaking kidding me?
@@Fishyyy Not really directed towards you, but some of the guys flying with you. And how do you do the fuzzy audio like that?

Well, most of the time. >_>
Also... I can't believe I heard this:

I think we used the wrong nickname. The aircraft that killed Typhun was a Ki-84 with two wing cannons.

AAA+++👍
Nice... I can't aim for crap
i want this to be a real squadron in ww2

I have just killed corsairs in an il-2 1941 and ki-27 otsu in quick missions to prove my point
When Europeans try to talk like Americans, where is the swearing, yelling, southern drawl ?

Great Video Fishyy love these planes Doatg fyi
