Title: Rox n Mudmoving stuff
Post by: AKFokerFoder+ on April 30, 2004, 05:45:15 PM

Anyone know of a place where I can get some film of rox and bombs from a Pony/F6u/F4u??  I can't seem to hit much with them.

Also good recommendation for mud moving sights would help.

Many pilots seem to be able to take out my gv's from close to D1000 with rox.  I'd like to learn how to do that also.

Dive in with the rockets, the faster you're moving when you start, the better.  At 1k out release 2 rockets aimed right for or right above.

You should hit near them if you don't hit them exactly.

Try my sights:

the ones with the circle and line, use the 6 oclock position on the circle where it intersects the line as an aim point of the rockets.

Make sure you are flying level with no slip if as rockets will travel in the direction you are going NOT in the direction you are pointing.

For bombing, its a matter of feel, practice practice is the best advice.  I usually try and dive fairly steep and use the top of the nose cowling as an aimpoint.  As soon as I lose sight of the target I will release and pull up.  Usually around 3-4k or so I think...

Against CV's I will use same tactic but pull out higher

Each plane is a tiny bit different, but a 60^ dive with the bottom pixel of the default sight on your target is a hit.

get speed up...use guns as target marker..when u see a ping flash from your guns..fire two rockets...works incredibly well..dangerous for flaks though
