Some P-47 action
« on: August 08, 2013, 01:47:10 PM »
Found a new home with the 56 FG "Zemke's Wolfpack". Here's a few of the better fights that I had recorded with my new squad to keep you all entertained until I finish my other video.  :D
(Didn't get to record as much as I wanted with the random game crashes we've been having with the latest patch  :( )

I think it's just that I have 8 guns instead of 3.  :P

and the .50 cal has much more dependable ballistics.

Great flying trobe!  :aok

Nice flying, I especially enjoyed the three spits at the end!   :rock

  :salute How the....what the...you sure showed those spitfires who was the boss. Excellent flying sir, congrats on joining the 56th.  :joystick: :banana:

Watching the video again, the last clip, you were tooling around at 200 mph, went vertical and roped a spitxteen (who was slightly below you at first). Everytime I try that move I get in trouble.  :rock

You just have to make them fly the longest path to you and force them to use up their E while hanging onto your E. I went into a gently climb away from him instead of just going straight up. What that did was use the minimum amount of my E while the spit had to do a 180, roll over, and then pull up to me... all while climbing. That's why he was unable to climb up to me and I got him at his stall.

I seem to be the only one talking in these videos...  :headscratch: Does my voice really sound like that over VOX?
