i have found that instant turning is vastly improved the lower you stick the throttle. after starting the turn you need to power up to full, or to a certain degree, depending on the turn speed and tightness, untill the turn is complete and you come back to level flight.
you have great guns which ever package you take. some people might say taking a light gun package will do wonders, i dont think this is true. for the small amount of gross mass reduction, the lack of the second set of 20mm is a big loss.
slashing BnZ attacks are the most likely to keep you alive, but try not to go overkill on the speed. its a fine line between staying fast enough not to waste Energy, and getting a good enough chance to hit your opponent.
you have so much ammo, dont be affraid to really hammer the guns on the solutions you get. the convergence will most likely be best suited between 300-400 yrds, as most of you attacks in BnZ mode you should be opening fire from 500 yrds, and finishing the kill by 200.
It turns the best out of any 190, up against a green pilot in a spit16 you should give him something to think about if you are stern with your E management and throttle work.
forcing overshoots is anotheer sure fire killing method. 90% of 190s will run when in a turn fight and losing. if in big trouble a good tactic can be to make a steep dive as if to run away, but keep your throttle closed. good evasives and a decent head for closure rates and E states will give you the chance of fooling your opponent into overshoot. bleed E faster with sideslips and hard G turn and rolls.
against a good stick, in any ride, your 190A5 will not be a good plane to be in a turn fight with.
a common myth is that the 190s will out climb anything with ease, the A5 especially will not even rope a P40 unless you hold a large ammount of E over the enemy.
its accel rate in a dive with the power on is very good, you can simply run away from alot fo the turn fighting rides if you nose down and head for home. E retention in turns and climb will not impress you as well. a spit 800 on your 6 and hold? do not try and turn or climb steeply unless you intend to turn fight or die. even a flat turn of 90* will give the spit a fine chance to close to within leathal range.
Fly with nother 190 as a wingman.
2 190s working together will take out any single plane in no time as long as you both cover each other and start with a good alt advantage. there are many good squads that excel in luftwaffe rides, try and find one. they usually start with a name of 'JG##'
well, i could say some more but most of what i write is just my experience. if you see me online feel free to ask me to the DA we can do some practice.
S!
