 Don't take it too serious. Have fun.


This. It's a game, or simulator. Real world is out there.

Everyone can get upset or frustrated, when for example 100 mph slower kite outclimbs yours with ease or one gets killed a way what looks ridiculous or impossible, but then it's better to have a break or at least a beer. And one good way to keep blood pressure normal is to avoid ch 200.

  I haven't done that YET! But I have lost to bombers, boom an zoom planes in a slow fight in a turn plane, lost to a lower plane....The list goes on.

 Just a freaking game. Not having fun. Walk away for a bit. Come back later.

Fly in the Offline Practice arena a bit.  Shooting at the drones is not as much fun as real players, but you do get to watch the planes go boom.  Pick a nice map and fly around just for fun and do some sightseeing.
