Finally took the P-38 to a brawl

[Tac]

I agree naudet, the 190's and the 109g10 have their torque modeled about right. I cant say its right 'cause I got no clue on how much torque they had, but damn, you'd better not pull hard on a 190 when below 200mph or it will spin REAL bad. Sciscoring in that thing is a nightmare for me. The G10 better be flying nice and straight when below 150... and without WEP or it will tumble on itself.

And yet other planes like n1k and la7 can point nose straight up with full wep on and get to near 50mph without any kind of torque penalty. Heck the n1k stalls as gently as the P-38, and at lower speeds!.

And this is with Ctrim and without. The torque doesnt seem to affect them.

Akak are you talking about stalling until you flick roll over?? I have pulled so hard in a 38 and I done a nice uncontrolled snap roll. Using a dual throttle just makes doing snap rolls in a 38 more controllable. That is what I was trying to state. Akak if this isn't what you were talking please tell me how you do it.

Nope, you don't stall when doing it.  When extending, pull into vertical climb and when your speed reaches about 225-200mph, pull back hard on the stick to either the left or right, snap roll the plane.  Try to recover the plane after the first snap roll. If done right, it will appear to the enema that you flipped your plane.

Leviathn did a good job a couple of months ago telling me how to do it but I'm still not able to pull it off consistently in combat that I don't do it very often.

Delta 6 has some other example of this maneuver posted but doesn't explain how to do them very well.
