How I Became a Bf 109 G-10 Fighter Ace

[@dravenwintle2313]

Ive been waiting for a video for a while. Started watching you 2 weeks ago and got a hotas. I got a double ace + 1 in the P51d30 a few days back and i cedit it to you. Thanks for being a good story teller and teacher ❤

[@involuntarycommander8804]

Hey man, that's awesome! I'm glad you're enjoying sim! What hotas did you get?

[@dravenwintle2313]

@involuntarycommander8804 a really cheap one second hand. I paid 10euro for a Logitech extreme 3d pro and its really good(for the price). Really heavy but it is really good for accuracy. The deadzone is so pronounced and accurate. Definitely will upgrade later but for now its perfect 👌

[@involuntarycommander8804]

@dravenwintle2313 you gotta start somewhere! I had a cheaper controller earlier and it worked great. Gl to you and see you in the skies!

[@dreamy150]

Yay he uploaded

[@Cross242]

Inputs section is really cool. Nice flying!

[@involuntarycommander8804]

Thanks!

"That's the thing with the Zero, you can't go around low and slow whitout exposing yourself to the Zero". The A7M as the Zero in question: =_=

[@involuntarycommander8804]

Yeah, I overstayed my welcome!

[@davidfans5852]

Ny tactics for Zero with P47 is fly low above ground high speed they wont see me and if i wont kill him on first burst i fly away and they wont get me because they are too slow.

[@involuntarycommander8804]

Yeah that should work. Works in the F4U aswell against slow enemies

[@invfamouzz731]

Could you show your joystick settings? I can't get WT to work, every plane is a wobble candidate. Love youre Vids btw keep them coming mate!

[@involuntarycommander8804]

Hey man! I'm happy you enjoy my videos. Quite a few people have asked the same questions, so I'll try to make a video about my settings. In the meantime, I will gladly help with any specific question. As you mentioned wobble. I recommend lowering the pitch sensitivity a lot, as low as you can. And you can also you into the pitch axis controll settings and lower that sensitivity and look into introducing non-linearity to make small adjustments easier. You'll notice the wobble goes away but the plane may now feel less responsive, so you will have to increase the sensitivity until you have lost the wobble but are still able to make a reasonably tight turn. Hope this help mate. Good luck to ya, see you in the skies!

@@involuntarycommander8804 Thanks i will try that later!

[@Jomchen]

Been really enjoying these vids recently as I'm getting into WT sim. Could you please let us know what you're using to display the control inputs in the bottom left? I play on an xbox controller, so I figure it might be useful for me to have a representation of my controls so I can be a little more consistent. Thanks very much.

[@Herrcampzalot]

That's why I can't wait for aces of Thunder to come out cuz I hate track IR. It's so hard to sneak up on a guy when he can turn his head to look behind him like a damn giraffe. 😂 Good flying though.

[@involuntarycommander8804]

😂 ..wait a minute. Are you not able to look around just like that in VR too?

[@LupusAries]

The problem is actually that the Headtracking/VR in WT is gimped...because they don't have a proper neck simulation. It was discussed a few years back on the DCS forums, because DCS had the same problem, namely that the viewpoint is the same as the twisting/movement point of the camera unlike in your body where the eyes (viewpoint) are above and to the front of the twisting point. Which makes looking to the rear much easier, as you look over your shoulder and don't rotate your view in place. @@involuntarycommander8804 The problem is that he needs to do way more work with his neck. As for the G-10 it has always been my favourite late war 109, the gun setup is much better for anti-fighter work and much easier to aim, and while the engine (in games) is usually not as strong as the K-4, it is also slightly lighter, giving it better wingloading. It's also set up with a higher maximum pressure altitude which does help sometimes, especially on the Channel Map when you have actually intelligent US-Bomber players on the enemy team. Just hope you don't meet a P-47 or P-51 or P-38 while at 8200-8400m. ;)

[@riffy4]

any chance for cold war jet video?

[@involuntarycommander8804]

Yeah, definitely. I have started dipping my toes into the early cold War jets.

[@littlep0d305]

could you play the Sea Fury? its a little lighter and faster than the Tempest II but is still quite heavy, was curious if you could play it, i personally thing its armament is quite powerful especially when the shots land they tend to leave a large impact on the fight.

[@k41kai24]

Insane comeback. Very late viewer here

[@KillerDudeT19]

how did you get to see your rudder controls in the bottom left?

[@th1ng1296]

what is your setup for this video in particular

[@SoulAir]

im trying to figure out if im watching a sim WT youtuber or just dreaming

[@k41kai24]

I have 20/20 vision... Still can't spot any of these planes

[@involuntarycommander8804]

What kind of device are you watching on? Maybe double check the quality settings in the video. Also spotting planes is something you have to get used to. It's not easy!

[@MooCow_o7]

mate, DCS World when?!?

[@de_masi9813]

What’s the difference between the g 10 the g14 and the k 4?

[@involuntarycommander8804]

I think they have different engines. I'm not able to look atm, but the g10 definitly feel a lot better to fly than the g14 and you are mostly up against BR 5.0 enemies which the g10 performs pretty well against. The K4 which might be even better performance wise than the g10 is facing scarier planes at BR 5.7 such as the F4U-4B.

[@de_masi9813]

@ thank you

[@th1ng1296]

@@de_masi9813 the exact differences is the performance at altitude, where the g10 excels at 7000 metres, and has better rudder control and it is lighter, the g14 excels at 5500 metres but a bit heavier and less rudder and turning, the k4 has an upgraded engine overall which excels at I think 6000 metres correct me if im wrong, and is aerodynamically improved with retracting tail wheels and fully covered gears, less bumps too

[@korn16232]

how do you get third person in sim battles?

[@shammgodwmmg5898]

You can’t, you can only see from the cockpit view, bombardier view, gunner view, or if any targeting camera’s are on the aircraft.

[@rockyrowlands3652]

Dive on who … I couldn’t see a thing 😅

[@involuntarycommander8804]

I have the eyes of a hawk and the ears of a fox

[@rockyrowlands3652]

@ and you went ti Spec Savers.

[@HUEEY]

didnt even reverse a zero smh ur not worthy for the g10

[@involuntarycommander8804]

Haha, yeah the G-10 must have deemed me unworthy for flying so low n slow. 😆
