What the heck are you talking about! Because he didn't fly in a straight line with someone behind him he did something wrong? Stick stirring is just making rapid motions of your stick flopping the plane around, not veering side to side and altering alt to make himself harder to hit. He is lucky he wasn't damaged when his opponent collided with him. I just want to know why he bailed after getting the kill? That is inexcusable if his plane was sound.

that funny, I have a video were I shoot of a yak9ts tail section at around 15k and a few minutes later once I still see his planes upper body section floating around. He wasn't able to maneuver much be he was able to keep a tail-less airplane in the air for a long time. I finally decide to finish him off while he was slowing fluttering down.

The rolling from side to side going up and down that is known as stick sturring. A yak can hand it to a n1k1 in high speed turn like that, the player just didn't know what he was doing and did a flat turn instead of a climbing on the force the overshoot.

EDIT: Stick sturring isn't bad in a no win situation but you asked if you where or not and I told you  :salute

You know to be pefectly honest, I never thought of going vertical to cause an overshoot

I like to start into a flat turn and when they con starts to get around -800 i start pulling up slight at first then harder and harder, then if you're feeling lucky roll back over quick for a snapshot.

That was epic!  And no, you weren't stick stirring at all... looked like decent evasive maneuvers while retaining as much E as possible, to me anyway.

But I wouldn't call them decent.

Stick stirring is what happens when a complete noob thinks that spinning his joystick around with the goal of just making the plane "flop" all over the place is how you avoid getting hit.

Stick stirring relies on pure luck and technical loopholes to survive.

What you did were purposely executed moves meant to keep you out of his guns, but they could have been better planned and executed and you could have force an overshoot rather than simply hope that he didn't hit you as he closed in on you.

I don't know how to properly force an overshoot on a saddled plane, it's easier when they have a greater energy advantage than me.

You take risks. Gamble.

Pull your throttle all the way back and pull the stick back so that it completely blacks you out if necessary. Just make sure you don't pull into his guns.

When he was 400 off your six and still hadn't hit you, if you had done what I suggest he wouldn't have been able to avoid the overshoot. even 600 out would have been a fairly certain overshoot.

A half a second later you push your throttle back to the wall and go on the offensive.

If I pulled back I would have gone into a wing stall, I didn't have enough speed for a blackout , plus being a nikki I didn't think it would work.

If you weren't fast enough to blackout in a hard turn, you wouldn't have stalled at all if you had even an inkling of familiarity of the Yak.

Him being in a niki had no bearing at all.

Your right, I'm a noob and I suck. I know nothing about yaks, anymore constructive critism? The whole point of me posting this was to show off a lucky shot, not dog me about the way I fly, so can we keep it that way?

I'm sorry, I didn't know you had your suck-age permanently implanted or how protective you were of it.

I look forward to more of your "luck" films.
