    The F8F-1B and the Ki-84 hei are probably my favorite prop planes to fly in this br range. Absolute powerhouses

    If you're willing to use MEC the engine overheating is a non-issue. 75% for both radiators, 85% prop pitch, 90% mixture and your engine will stay cool for most of the game. First supercharger gear switch is 800m.

    Seeing this just makes me nostalgic, the days when this and the N1K ja were the meta in props especially when the N1K had a completely useless center pylon fuel pod

    Gaijin nerfed this plane too much. It was very good before. It doesn't make sense, the plane was really powerful in reality.

    The Bearcat is such an amazing plane. Kinda odd my playstyle matches that of an aircraft that you must play in a VERY particular manner :|

    Never would have guessed that first Spitfire couldn't get his guns on you.

    I used to play this plane in Arcade by itself, because it has a 4.3 br in arcade, lowered to 4.0 by being brought alone. Even with all the simplifications, buffs to performance, and air spawns, it was still seal clubbing with the thing.

    At first (even after the BR decrease to 5.0) I hated flying this plane for the reason you mentioned in the video… but, I gave it chance, leveled up the crew and holy crap, I LOVE this plane! It is an absolute beast of a plane at 5.0. The climb rate, the speed, acceleration are incredible at 5.0 to say the least. Yes the guns suck, but you do have the option to run APT-I belts with this thing, so you’ll create fires like no other.

    Ooohhhh that's where energy is stored... No wonder I'm constantly stalling out 😅

    Been missing your prop plane vids, top tier is fun for a bit but really a completely different game at this point. Would love to see you go back and revisit some of your older prop/low tier jet reviews, even if they haven't gotten any flight model changes alot of older planes are still affected by new matchmaking and new matchups in their br bracket.

    I do find the lack of energy retention useful cause it makes it easier to stay on someone's six whenever they decide to slow down and try to reverse me. But I'm sure, at that point, I'm not playing the F8F correctly. But it is still useful when I accidentally get into those types of situations.

    I have the worst time flying the bearcat, it's good but man that handling gets me every time and I burn the engine up pretty reliably to boot, i'll take my P-51D-30 every time

    That spit showed you a lil trick he learned from being constantly stalled out 😮😂

    Most amazing part of this video is watching Defyn give his teammate a kill
