On this channel we like to do a lot of dogfighting most videos are some sort of dogfight between 2 different aircraft as we explore their different capabilities. From time to time I like to dabble in Virtual Reality, I think VR is a great new technology and I love to show that stuff off for the channel from time to time.
If you enjoy war thunder or Microsoft flight simulator 2020 or even dogfighting in Battlefield 2042, consider getting yourself into Digital Combat Simulator by Eagle Dynamics, the Combat side of Aviation with the BVR and Dogfights really provides a different and interesting perspective on aviation. You can fly all kinds of combat aircraft including the F-16, F-15, F-14, JF-17, Su-27, Mig-29, Mirage and the F-18 Hornet along with many other aircraft and helicopters like the Ka-50 and Mi-8.

Check out the Store: growling-sidewinder.creator-spring.com/ So I've been really struggling with performance with my DCS and OBS running at the same time and It's been resulting in some really low FPS issues, I finally MIGHT have sorted it out having Identified that the issue was within my OBS I believe. Please let me know your thoughts on this video and its "frames". Thank you for watching and I'll see you in the next one. Much Love.

[@shelby2561]

Big improvement as I already commented

[@bradys.7967]

Super smooth brother

[@heathb4319]

Didn't notice a difference in vid quality. I watch everything in 480p anyhow :))

[@DougLaneGPlus]

Smooth as butter - noticeable improvement - fantastic video as always

[@paulwalker6635]

Noticeably smoother

[@Chance5PY90]

4-2 here - Well played, wasn’t expecting that 120 in my face not too long after takeoff lol. PvP is a whole different realm from PvE, definitely need to get adjusted

[@noscopesallowed8128]

That almost felt a little spawn campy to me.

[@guidohorvall1484]

I agree 💯. Still there's ways around that..

[@Mako2-1]

What’s up dude! Happens to the best of us. I was the f-18 running away😂. Come check out my pov!

[@SpolzkaWarThunder]

@@noscopesallowed8128 nop it's not bro

[@Shirocco7]

Great sportsmanship. Shows good community spirit.

[@ratboy_]

Part of what makes this channel really good is that it's so accessible with GS giving explanations of all the terms he uses.

[@Patrick-zr8tv]

This channel almost entirely single handed has taught me and gotten me invested in modern air combat. This is one of the biggest reasons for that I think. I'm picking up my first hotas setup along with a TrackIR kit soon and hopefully ill be able to learn the f16 relatively quick. Pretty keen to get on it. Hopefully I can get myself a nice setup but we'll see how the budget stretches.

[@TemplarDCS]

F-16 shoving dudes in lockers since 1974

[@judeackland-patel6646]

Been playing as an f15 alot in your server last week or two. I'm a total newbie, zero situational awareness and i spent most of my time rearming and taking off, but seeing you play in that environment is really helpful, pls keep doing these :) (really entertaining aswell ofc)

[@NubbyEvo]

That's for the heads up, if I'm eating lunch and an F16 shows up at the door, I won't answer it.

[@thegameplayer474]

Well done for 400k!!! Hope you continue the great content.

[@mister_jab_mtb]

directly seen that the video quality has become extremely better, I think it's perfect for watching now

[@localbod]

Watching you engage real multiple bandits was very absorbing and you showed your skill. Infotainment at its finest.

[@F0X_two]

Feels definitely smoother, noticed some stutters in older videos, but now they seem gone… good job 👍🏻👌🏻

[@machinech183]

This is hands down my favorite plane growing up. Such a monster in the hands of an experienced pilot. Thanks for the video and the nostalgia GS! (Nearly forgot to add - frames look solid and smooth, nice work on that)

[@kaliningradtoczechrepublic8162]

same, mainly because it looks cool

[@Tommy2er]

Love your content. It's absolutely crazy how much you put out; pretty much every time I come on KZbin there's a new upload and every one of them is such high quality. I honestly never even noticed you were having issues with framerate but this video looks superb. Thanks for all the amazing videos Sidewinder

[@The_Elder_Weeb]

Coming in pretty hot on that landing! Congrats on surpassing 400K GS! Quite literally the best DCS KZbinr!!!

[@clairecelestin8437]

Thanks for including the landing! There's something satisfying about a nice gentle touchdown.

[@Stinger522]

Another great video of ruling with the Viper. When you were talking about the planes getting shot down after taking off from their base, all that came to mind was gear up, flaps up, blown up.

[@koffeekorner4207]

Great Video Growling! That F-16 is a real champion in the Sky! You were taking out F-15's and F/A-18's left and right. And yes, great work by that guy who was running away there at the end. Good Strategy.

[@c.shannon3914]

Congratulations on 400k you definitely deserve it. And the FPS seems pretty good to me. Video looks great GS

[@yamthirdnow]

Congrats on 400k! Found your channel about a month ago and I’ve loved all your videos. Please keep up the great content!

[@benbleuse8552]

Very good video and very good quality ! I really liked the engagements ! Congrats for the 400k !!!

[@itsducky3248]

Great video! I'd love to see more videos of you playing on your pvp server in different aircraft. Also, the frames are silky smooth.

[@banaantjexx164]

The video is looking great, GS! Whatever you did certainly did look different to me from the start of the video and it did look smoother to me. This server content is also great for anyone who wants to know how to employ everything they learnt from doing practice in an actual combat-situation in the game, so this type of video is also quite nice. Thanks for the food!

[@BSAtlantia24]

Well done on 400k 👍🍾 Would love to see another vid of you in an F22 sneaking up on other players in DCS and that moment of panic when they finally see you 😂

[@robertbarreuther8239]

Always enjoy the videos. Congrats on 400K. I was just getting into DCS but now I have a bum leg so my wings have been clipped for awhile but I enjoy watching and learning you keep it up

[@steve390gold]

4:45 "Data link contact at 35,000 miles!!" Lmao that's one hell of an AWACS!!!

[@Imugi007]

Love these videos of you just taking off and engaging BVR contacts. Keep it up!

[@rafatreseisconco]

Yo do a great job. I watch most of what you put out and have definitely enjoyed the mini documentaries. Keep them coming please! Congrats on 400K!!!

[@dystopianlucidity4448]

Master class! What an absolute treat. Thanks GS.

[@davidwhite8489]

Really like these videos. Looks good whatever you did. Picture quality is nice.

[@jackwieghat4249]

absolute enjoy your videos.. Love the WWII to stuff as well done!

[@davidhall5282]

I've been really wanting to see this type of video w/F16 Thanks!

[@jefftheriault5522]

Video quality seems very good. Excellent illustration of what our guys have to go through when the fit hits the shan.

[@aleksibovellan9821]

The BEST DCS channel on KZbin. Soo happy he updated his machine. Now the graphics is butter smooth and beautiful.

[@timvertz3687]

Great video! I really enjoyed the PvP aspect. Hope you make a few more like this. :)

[@RuBiCaNT5X]

Definitely better on the FPS. I thought it was a post-production issue, but glad its sorted.

[@SwingArmCity]

The F16 viper is a fan favorite, also, a DCS pilot favorite (that I've noticed).

[@patrickdavis8271]

Great video GS. Looking forward to watching more.

[@stevensutton2252]

Thanks GS for the upload is what I was requesting for

[@Ginuwine-kx2iv]

Just love your stuff, and you've been pretty busy the last week.

[@uglyigor3055]

FPS definitely looking alot better. Didn't see any stutter so far. Looks very smooth. Thought that's because you are on the Caucasus MAP and your MP server and not a 1v1 fight on syria map-

[@birbdad1842]

Video seems super smooth to me 👍👍

[@BringTheRain]

Congrats! Will always envy the casual attitude while being tracked and shot at by SAMs hahaha

[@orlandotowner601]

I noticed right away that your video seemed alot more smoother 👍

[@TheRaptorXX]

Vid seems smoother GS, deffo. 👌

[@moneykeegs7255]

The frames are noticeably better. Keep it up!!

[@SkylarKelly]

Definitely noticed a difference in visual quality. Seems like the changes you made were effective.

[@beatboxbuggi6884]

4:58 looks better to me man! Love the PVP, hopefully one day I’ll be able to be a part of it as well!

[@ronawitz7965]

Video is very smooth!

[@julians7268]

Looking buttery smooth.

[@DJTourniquet]

Does look smoother bud, gj

[@GG-gr2px]

Thumbs up for the color scheme choice of the aircraft !

[@levimiller6037]

I felt like the quality was night and day different in quality. Always enjoy your content.

[@davedeville6540]

Cool to see these types of scenarios. 👍

[@GunBuddy08]

I really like the PvP videos. Keep it up GS!

[@adamgarrison4737]

Would love to have seen the Tacview on that one. The high/low aspect range difference realities are striking.

[@evilcheesestick9306]

Video seems smoother, I think it worked!

[@adjudicator_heroic3093]

Always a treat to see growling in the F16 again

[@rickmasseur2008]

I remember you celebrating 70K. Dude, you're definitely evolving!

[@BrianDavis-rj7cc]

@growlingsidewinder Thanks for the video my wingman Raven4-2 | CHANCE is still learning but we both really enjoy your server keep up the great content brother.

[@cowboy10uk]

Very impressive. I’ve not actually used the F16 after the first release due to the many issues it had back then. I’m gonna guess that it’s come on leaps and bounds since then, so will I be right in suggesting that she’s worth jumping in again and starting to learn properly

[@koffeekorner4207]

This was fun Growling, those F/A-18s and F-15s couldn't do much against the Viper. With the F-100 engine, the maneuverability, and all that. The Viper is one tough customer. That engine is powerful for sure. And the video quality seemed pretty good, I didn't really notice anything out of the ordinary.

[@marcbow]

I always known that the Viper was a solid fightercraft, I didn't understand what a dominant platform it really is until this last summer. Not only does it work as an extremely effective 35,000lb can of bug swat but it's extremely capable of prosecuting violence with the ground as well.

[@koffeekorner4207]

@@marcbow That's incredible Marc, I didn't know how effective of a fightercraft it was either. It really is one of the most effective 4th gen fighter planes in the world. Hats off to the people who designed it.

[@briandp0560]

Nice flying, good f16 show.

[@nexusluthor4437]

definitely improved fps in this video. Love your vids

[@SPIN_89]

Frames are fantastic 💯👍🏼

[@JohnnyGardner2016]

Frames looking great 😎

[@natjonestower3035]

I work about a mile from the air guard base in our town, and live about 5. While I like watching them and am glad we have an asset like that so close by, I do wish they'd take a break from flying over my house under afterburners, just for a day or two. Makes my damn windows shake.

[@TsZen876]

Really enjoyed this video, very entertaining

[@DeezAster09]

Frames are definitely better! Another great video!

[@MMACHMP]

F16 is a sexy beast of a fighter

[@yaseen157]

Before you mentioned it in the video, I did think this video felt a lot smoother for some reason!

[@Vet-on-the-move]

Loved that you picked the Greek version of F-16!

[@bradys.7967]

Frames seem super solid my guy

[@docholliday1811]

Love your videos. It makes me feel like I am there.

[@westfailia]

i hadn't really noticed a problem but this video is definitely smoother

[@chubbybear7777]

Before you mentioned i was thinking it seems a bit smoother...the what seemed like watching a lag for a millisecond when you check your six. in the past videos

[@billpetrak]

I must say, those Greek markings on your viper look pretty.

[@blindtraveler844]

i love how smooth this looks now

[@viktor_v-ughnda_vaudville_476]

That was pretty cool I liked that

[@MaSterChOu1]

The first five minutes of the video I was saying to myself « it looks a lot more realistic than usual, what’s going on ?! » I figured it out when you mentioned the fps thing 😅! So you can consider it has improved. Thank you for the hard work again.

[@armenkasparian6535]

Frames look great! A lot less choppy

[@nicostaempfli657]

Nice work as always GS! Could you please do a tutorial sometimes about how to set up private multiplayer servers like the ones you and longshot play in? Would love to see that.

[@xxbonxx]

GS you got the best content. Lemme be honest you kinda taught me how to fly the f1

[@GrowlingSidewinder]

Thanks buddy and ya I should really get back into the f1 myself

[@xxbonxx]

@@GrowlingSidewinder that would be so lit imagine f1 vs eurofighter i could only imagine the hell

[@jackson4736]

The video quality definitely looks smoother

[@ryananderson9905]

The frames are much better, many videos recently have been low fps and didn't have a 60fps option for quality, but this one does and it feels much better.

[@lt.nukeyB0i]

Just in time for the f16 teaser in war thunder! Also congrats on 400k :D

[@planesrkool2727]

I like these server vids, keep them up

Man the F-16 really is a work of art. It is so good-looking but also one of the most effective fighters in the world. It's. A. Beast. P.S.: always love your work and congrats for the 400k, keep it up ;D

Hey growling raven 4-1 here that is very disrespectful that you put my wing man’s death in the first kill part of this video 🤣🤣 I’ll be seeking revenge! 🤣🤣

Love the content! Part of the reason I got into dcs. Been playing about 4 days now with the hotus warthog. Question, how does one move the cursor on the rws to lock instead of hitting the tms switch?

[@kbklt1]

With one mile to close on the runner, you didn't get greedy either! Two live to meet again.

“Step F-16, what are you doing!?”….

This is a change, and quite awesome.

[@mravocadude4031]

You uploaded this the same day the F16 was announced for war thunder. Well timed sir

[@scooter748driver9]

Graphics looked a lot better. Also enjoyed seeing server-based combat. Thanks

[@personified5102]

It would be something neat to see a full on battle were you would have different fighters and awacs going a another enemy with each having different abilities and approaches to take out the other side.

[@GenghisV]

Frames are liquid Bro! @4K
