    These were painful 5 days of grind, its so annoying that every single battle lasts ~5 minutes because nobody can dodge a single attack run these days. My sanity can't take making these types of videos any more...

    I find it amazing how you've got this sort of shot down to a science; the throttle drop, the flaps, and the precise use of rudder. By comparison I think I overuse the rudder at times, it's a new skill I'm learning so I tend to use it even when I might not need to.

    • @smigoltime
      @smigoltime  Год назад +18

      Tbh it doesn't always work XD it requires the enemy to follow the flight path and not do any sudden evasive maneuver. It's also not a very smart thing to do (0% throttle in a plane that can clearly win a vertical fight), but I just love doing that

      I sadly have had to 'downgrade' from BEng to BSc Engineering, due to struggles with Math (terrible Uni management during covid, + race quatas here in 🇿🇦)
      Did you apply for BEng or BSc?
      Have you also maybe tried looking into Technical Colleges for Aeronautics?
      I had a friend of a friend attend a Technical College of Aeronautics (In UK) and it looks pretty good as well.
      Less reliance on Maths, but obviously this comes at the trade off, with limiting what work research and design work you can get into/quality for.
      But you get right into things, designing aerofoils from 1st year already.
      I know of people here in 🇿🇦, who couldn't get into BSc or BEng (pre race quota)
      and first went into Technical College, went into work sector for experience, then had company set a bursary to get higher qualifications at BEng as their potential was seen.
      Maybe the same can be done over there.

I guessed that i'll probably loose but i wanted to give it a try anyway. War thunder had other plans because a single hit from your 20mm shot me down, the plane was still in good condition but the game decided i was shot down. Welp, perhaps there will be another day and another try.

    hey smigol,
    i have been watching you for a long time now,
    and i have always wondered how do you control your planes,
    what i mean is what keybinds do you use, is this all with default mouse and keyboard settings? or do you use a joystick ( i dont think so) u use keyboard and mouse right?
    i think we could all learn from you by how you set up your keyboard & mouse controls.
    i want to be able to fly like you or atleast have the same same starting position.
    whenever i watch your videos i feel like i am doing something wrong with my flying and i highly suspect it has to do with my settings. dont get me wrong im not a noob with 2000h
    could you make a video showing your settings and maybe explain a little bit about each?

      I have a Ki-43 video in plans, however given it's a 2.7 (not talking about the Ki-43-III Otsu), it's gonna be hard to find good fights
