anytips.

 I have been flying the FM2 since Jan. I have recently been trying the Nik.

It is faster not as turnable, and compresses. I also seem to hang on the top of a loop. I tried hitting a notch of flaps, that does not seem to help. Should I use the elevator? I seem to be blacking out all the time . While I know the cause of this ( habits from FM2) yanking on the stick so much. I have been trying to soften my aproach to avoid to much speed.

Any help appreciated.

Use the vertical. The Nik is very good an vertical maneuvers when you have speed. Yes you will hang in the loops drop a few more notched of flaps and pull back down.

Hi yo-yo's, barrel roll attacks, climbing sprials are all good tactics. It's not quite the turner that the FM2 is but if your gentler with her and retain your E it should fly similar.

The NIKIs cannons can be devistating. Attack with an advantage, get in saddle up and hit them with those cannons and then get out and go vert. You've got 900 rounds of 20mm so take those deflection shots a few hits will take down most enemys.

Check out Soda eval on the NIKI, it will help a lot.
