This MIGHT be growling sidewinder ‼️⁉️

[@platypaty5007]

Well he went into the merge without firing which is very respectable

[@flop22222]

I love watching dcs for content like this and always wanted a vtol vr version of it. I didnt think it would ever come. Thank you. I would love to see more.

[@butimohammed3264]

hello flop.

[@thexlonewolf671]

I feel like the T-55 is very underrated as a PvP fighter. It may not have the missile capacity of the F/A-26, nor does it have the stealth qualities of the F-45, but it can be deadly in the merge, especially if you can force a rate fight on the deck.

[@EyosYT]

Plus having a person in the back seat is really big for providing increased situational awareness which is really useful in any PvP engagement.

[@immortaldev1489]

not really, the F26 has a better rate if they know the speed

[@dubyaaa]

@@immortaldev1489 rate is deg/sec not a set speed. Also dependent on TWR

[@immortaldev1489]

@@dubyaaa in order to achieve your best rate, there's an optimal rate speed dependent on things like altitude, TWR, lift produced by wings, etc, and the F26 has a better rate than the T55 if they do the right rate speed

[@AustinMoore-hs1xj]

​@@EyosYT Idk if this is in vtol but the F16 two-seater has a tighter turn radius since its center of mass is further back in the plane.

[@fingergunpewpew760]

bro STYLED on him with the landing gear

[@Dralaios]

Been watching Growling Sidewinder? :P Personally, I think the planes lose airspeed too fast in VTOL VR. That being said, the planes can also reach an angle of attack like a F-22 with thrust vectoring but half the engine power.

[@EyosYT]

Perhaps I took some inspiration :P

[@Dralaios]

@@EyosYT Hehe :P Interesting to see merges under similar fashion in VTOL👍

[@Jayplays749]

you are the best vtolvr channel

[@Toast2812]

Love how the videos setup with the first person and the s cam

[@dadaddy1677]

This is actually a growling sidewinder video but vtol vr Nice!

[@frozetti434]

VTOL VR and Carl Casey is what I need right now. I love these types of videos :))

[@F0XX3r]

this was awesome, you should do the F-45 v F/A-26, and F-45 v T-55 also

[@EyosYT]

I plan on doing all of the planes eventually

[@mintman825]

Id love to see how the t55 and fa26 fair against the f45 in the merge

[@lucasZr113]

Just found the channel, good stuff man. Subbed!

[@whodoesnt3745]

it can do some crazy stuff with the g-limiter off. falling leaf baby! pulls cobras too (kinda)

[@joshuagriffith6787]

*Growling Sidewinder at home*

[@EyosYT]

Mom, can we have DCS? No, we have DCS at home. DCS at home... XD

[@Soldierus3003]

Just like GS this was really well done dude

[@pieppy6058]

Turns out the socks give 10% extra turn rate

[@AustinMoore-hs1xj]

Awesome man keep it up!!!!! ❤

[@brendondavis440]

VTOL version of growling sidewinder

[@ryancastillo4938]

You sir have earned a new sub

[@dobryrusk]

Love ur vids

[@bitsandbytes-code]

I play it all day! And I can say, its not about the plane its about the pilot. Because no matter what plane you are! When i MISSIL FOX 3 or FOX 2 is chasing you! The other plane no matter what kind was... Only the MISSIL MATTERS !

[@jacob_morin]

Hey - question, how did you record a S-CAM of your interior view and of being shot down at 2:42?

[@EyosYT]

I use an external software called LIV first person stabilizer for my first-person view and S-Cam Chase TGT 40 for my external view.

[@jacob_morin]

Much appreciated!@@EyosYT

[@3ch0_17]

I know this is an old video, but i would live to 1v1 you sometime soon

[@AlekCinematics]

Yo quick question if you dont mind. I was wondering whats ur setup? For all this especially ur VR headset. Been wanting to get into this for a couple months now.

[@EyosYT]

I just use a quest 2 connected to my PC with a link cable.

[@AlekCinematics]

Thanks! ❤

[@flop22222]

Where did you find the information on the best turn rate for the tyro? Is that information available for all aircraft?

[@EyosYT]

OverSavior on the VTOL VR Reddit made a great chart of it. www.reddit.com/r/vtolvr/comments/127mnda/i_discovered_that_seemingly_nobody_has_made_ed/

[@flop22222]

@Eyos Wow! Thats that kind of thing ive bee searching for. Thank you! One thing i did notice was that you chose to use flaps in the radius fight and none in the rate despite what the notes in this reddit post say. Im curious about your thoughts on that.

[@EyosYT]

@@flop22222 For me in practice Ive found that if Im using flaps in the 55 and my opponent isn't I tend to lose. Though that is just my experience and the data might say otherwise

[@TheWhoamaters]

I don't feel like the vertical is the best place for this thing

[@keepscrollingbuddy5471]

Bro thinks he’s Growling Sidewinder Jk please don’t rifle on my house

[@federalinvestigator]

10/10 you have earned a sub

[@cattoz3233]

nice

[@50percent_cool]

I did something similar with the 26 and 45 and the 45 crushed it the front fins just let you out turn anybody and was a little unfair

[@user-lc8st6nr1d]

definitely fair: F45 vs T55

[@BabyKermit_]

The real question here is why didnt you use flaps 1? aka combat flaps

[@youraverageamerican3514]

In the 55 do you prefer sitting in the back or the front? Me personally I enjoy the back more

[@EyosYT]

I love just chilling in the back and using the weapons. But for flying, the front is the only way to go in my opinion. Especially for carrier landings, it can be hard to see the deck if you are flying in the back.

[@KayoMichiels]

​@@EyosYTWell.. you can use the tgp to look through the plane.

[@networkgeekstuff9090]

How much fuel was on the FA26? I noticed you have about 40% in T-55.

[@EyosYT]

We kept the TWR of the two planes the same for this video.

[@BULLETVR153]

Dcs vibes

[@NietoKT]

I always said, that skilled pilot can kill his opponent flying a school bus. I think trainer jet is close enough.

[@canismajoris6733]

And what if the other guy knows what he's doing too?

[@gameinsane8984]

The 26b is just overall better for dogfighting

[@unsocial399]

When you buy the T-55, does the person who bought the jet sits in the front or back. And can you switch seats With the second person in your plane?

[@EyosYT]

You can choose which seat to sit in when you pick your spot in the briefing room. You aren't able to switch seats mid-flight though. To change seats during a mission, you must go back to the briefing room.

[@Edexus1k]

Landing gear meta?

[@D1mike99]

This video is like growling sidewinder but vtol vr instead of dcs

[@simulacra7885]

[@thetreen00b]

GAME WINDOW NOT IN FOCUS

[@marcdoran5994]

Its not the plane Its the pilot

[@FathiZaynMuhamad]

why are u using flap ?

[@elfferich1212]

It can give you an edge at getting your nose on if you have enough speed. But increases drag.

[@FlockersDesign]

Okey one dont use AB in a dogfight this fucks up youre movment also in Vtol flaps one 1 is combat flaps this will also help a lot

[@mintman825]

Whats wrong with ab? T55 has bad twr and wont be able to gain speed back without the ab

[@FlockersDesign]

@@mintman825 like i said it fucks up youre movement But let me explain it for you like this When using after burner in a dogfight youre pushing to mufch trust why turning gets way harder and this is normal When you pull down the trust this is were youre mobility get way better yes you lose speed also normal why you need to learn how the plane handels so you know how to fly it properly its a classic and the most commen mistake i see players make in Vtol And that a training yet like this loses more speed and has a slower accaleration time is also normal

[@mintman825]

@@FlockersDesign i dont think thats true but im willing to trust you on this because i dont own the t55 yet

[@mintman825]

@@FlockersDesign AB doesnt affect rate or radius preformance being at the right speed does i just checked with a friend therefor having th AB on is more favorable

[@FlockersDesign]

@@mintman825 i just did some research just to be sure because now i also got doubts if i was right and I was not so after burner is only used by takeoff on a small airstrip or career and only in a HIGH manuver in a dog fight and not all the time and not in the entire dogfight and CAN be used to prevent a stall but other then that its not used

[@dezyVR]

This being in GS's style is freaking awsome for vr
