Well ... when didn't you lick your chops when any plane decided to turn with your Spit V ?

I find that is true for all planes(including the Niki)..More challenging FM(stalls/spins) for sure and way more immersive.

I'm always right, it just takes some poepl longer to come to that realization than others.

Is it necessary to turn the stall limiter off?

Very, leaving it on just holds you back from finding the edge of the stall for your plane, then being able to ride the edge ( fly the edge) once you have found it......
"When one considers just what they should say to a new pilot who is logging in Aces High, the mind becomes confused in the complex maze of info it is necessary for the new player to know. All of it is important; most of it vital; and all of it just too much for one brain to absorb in 1-2 lessons" TC

If you want to be able to fly a fighter to its maximum potential then yes.

The stall limiter is there to help brand new players get a feel for the game and keep them from getting frustrated early on and giving up (At least I think this is the case).  I advise turning it off as soon as possible.

Heh...... That was true at one time and I do appreaciate the complement.  However......

Truth is that I havnt flown much AH in a while and Im a shell of my former self in an AH fighter, Spit V included.

I am back full time now though (Finally given up on IL2/FB/AEP/Pacific Fighters) and I hope to get some of the old feel back.

Speaking of which if anyone feels like giving me some DA brush up it would be appreaciated.  ;)

c yas up...... Dave

Heyas there Wadmaster;)

I will be lookin for ya while im on.  Although Im usually not on that late.

As for the BKs....... Todd had sent me an invite shortly before I cancelled my acct and I was into one of my "IL2 is the answer" phases.

I have since come to my senses and realized that I cant get away from AH.  Soooo......

Im really not sure what the situation is.  Im kinda in limbo .

c yas up......... Dave
