I've had TrackIR for a few months now and some days I feel like having more immersion so I turn all axes on, in which case I will either line up manually or have a view that pans to the vickers sight.

I never used TrackIR and in fact never heard of it before I played RoF and so I learned how to align my view centered on a gunsight. It comes down to what you want to do with your Track IR, or rather if you even have it. Ever since I watched Reflected's boom and zoom tutorial I've lined up offset to the left for the ring and bead sight of the Vickers. Looking at the SE5a videos you seem to have your sighting lined up on the centre line, which I assume is for the Lewis. If you can grasp those three things then you are doing well. This is where the combination of situational awareness, energy management, and aircraft proficiency come into their own in air combat. For example, just because loops are supposed to be a perfect circle doesn't mean there aren't uses for elongated loops, there are always times where you must recognise that the situation calls for the maneuvers to be modified to fit. I hope that helps illustrate the point Squid made air combat is very fluid and there is no formula of strictly executed maneuvers to win you a dogfight once you get into one.

Just because I did half a Cuban Eight after the first pass then a wingover on the second doesnt mean I couldnt do two "half cuban-eights" back to back to make a full one It is simply a maneuver that lets you know just how in control of your aircraft you really are, rather than just thinking you are. I wouldn't say there is an exact situation in a dogfight where a Cuban Eight is called for.however, you could still use an entire Cuban Eight in ground strafing a stationary target. So…it's the matter of what Combat use is a " full" Cuban 8 of which I am curious…?Ī rhetorical question, at this point, I suppose. I'd seen that I do understand the utility of a half-Cuban eight…though I prefer a simple wingover after pulling out of a high speed/energy strafing run, if I want to turn back for another Go.Īs someone mentioned, he found himself "hanging" in the air at the top of the loop…I've always considered loops as placing oneself in a very vulnerable position… I posted the reason for inclusion and purpose of the Cuban Eight at post #15 Perhaps people could add their own wish lists for maneuvers/explanations of things they are uncertain about….it would at least provide you with some useful feedback on what the community is lacking in the way of tutorials etc? Thanks for the feedback so far guys, its really important This is so viewers can see what should be happening and then extrapolate it to their aircraft of choice. I will be using a variety of aircraft (like Central aircraft in a BnZ defense situation), but I just wanted an aircraft that provided good visibility and speed for the maneuvers. If an aircraft can perform a loop correctly, then by rights it can perform a Cuban Eight. The Cuban eight is more about having maximum control of your aircraft and knowing how far you can push it while keeping it stable. You can either do the half cuban eight or a wingover, I just included it for some variety in setting up ground attacks. Ie - The 2/3 of a loop, inverted roll out, and then your bang on target for the next pass. In ground strafing after you make your dive and pass you have an increased energy state (speed) which you can then use to perform a "half cuban eight" which is essentially the first half only. I included the Cuban Eight since I referred to using it in the ground strafing video. I can't be expected to do every maneuver in every aircraft (not at this point anyway lol ) For instance, I'll have a video on Chandelles soon, but I'm not using the Nieuport 11 for it.
One minor constructive criticism….can you explain the uses for the Cuban 8? Is it just used to shake opponents? I find it difficult to see what practical value it has as you basically retain your speed, heading and altitude after doing some acrobatics?Īlso, you perform most of these vids in the SE5a.one of the most powerful planes in the game….the cuban 8 for example, I would be surprised if some of the other aircraft in the game could perform this maneuver.įor illustrating the concepts I just wanted to use the best aircraft for the maneuver. I think there are probably a lot of pilots out there (including experienced ones) who like myself have only a rudimentary knowledge of Air Combat Maneuvers and these tutorials are a gold mine for them and the community in general. I basically taught myself to fly, then i read up a bit about ACM's including the high and low yo-yo which I would like to see you cover at some point. Requiem…to the point and very informative.
