[@gengarisnotinsmash...]

Some tips regarding bomb bays: They fire 4 bombs over 1 second, with a 4 second recharge. At 5 bomb bays with a 1 second delay between each, you can do an infinite bombing run, with only 10 power cores. However, one set of bombs does feel lacking in power, so grouping them up can also have excellent results. Facing them down is definitely the way to go. Having them go backwards tends to lead to you hitting yourself more than anything. Having a front facing weapon (for its target reticle) or a stripe along the center of your plane is amazing for lining up bombing runs. Bombs spread out more the faster you go, so they are best used on slow planes or planes that can slow themselves down easily. For faster planes, missiles are a better option for dealing with big targets, especially considering how they keep some of the momentum from your plane when fired. Both bombs and missiles are pretty bad in dogfights, though, so stick to guns for air to air combat.

[@HalfWolf2]

A tail gunner is an invaluable asset here, as not only can you defend your rear from enemy fighters, but if you do a strafing/bombing run on an enemy, you can still hit some shots while flying away

[@nathankelly5976]

Ye that’s one of the first things I would do because without a rear gun my battlefield one days kick in

[@steeljawX]

Well it's practically the only tactic the AI fighters will do. Their basic MO is get a reasonable distance and then make a B-Line at the player and start blasting, but if they're behind you, they'll just keep blasting. That's their "bread and butter" area. So if you have that kind of counter play to them, they basically don't pose any threat. They're just annoying.

[@AsPlayBox]

27:17 I noticed that when shot down that pirate, it reduces your respawn token time. Helpful tip: Try to balance your firepower, speed, and maneuverabilty, each of fhem affefts the other like too much firepower like having too many guns causes strong recoil which drains the speed you have and tip your plane off on its path

[@adimaiuniversal4361]

for the bomber and the blimp i suggest the simple turrets on the rear and sides to cover those areas from attacks and the minigun at the front, that way you got at least a 360 degree area of gun coverage, yes it might take some time to take out one thing but you no longer have to turn around to fully aim

Hi scrapman, what if you separated the fire button for the auto cannon and the minigun, so you can have the flexibility of firing the auto cannon in more tight manuevres, but then have the minigun charged for a head on barrage. It's just theoretical though, idk how well it would work.

[@thompsonswagnon3960]

pro tips. you can increase the flap angles on the new wings for more authority (dont go to far or it just acts more like an air brake.. unless thats what you want), turn the speed all the way up cus it starts at half and finally and probably the most important part imo is to turn steering assist way down or off completely for a much more responsive flight characteristics (this setting dampens the control at high speeds making it more stable but it also means you dont get full authority at high speed and it kills your ability to turn). in my experience you can get a much more maneuverable plane by just playing with the sliders than you can by just tacking on extra crap to try to balance things out. also if your drag points are too far back from you center of mass your plane will pitch and yaw much more sluggishly. remember more stable means more resistant to change in its state I.E less maneuverable. i find that having the vertical drag marker a little closer to the center of mass than the game likes will make it pitch better or at least faster, same with the horizontal for yaw. it seems to me the stock settings on the wings and the force indicators happy spots are set up to make a super simple easy to fly lazy trainer plane. im pretty much at the point where i ignore the force indicators warnings all together and just use the markers for general info so i can tweak them twords the characteristics i want. also having the center of thrust behind your center of mass helps to get your nose pointed at your target faster. having it in front will want to pull your nose straight i.e out of a turn, when its behind it "pushes" the the plane and when you turn it uses your center of mass (pivot point) as a fulcrum and leverages your nose more into the turn but again makes the plane less stable. im basically trying to say good dog fighting/stunt planes are inherently unstable thats why they need good pilots to keep them in control. AND USE YAW G.D.it your missing out on 1/3 of your available axis of control for steering it opens up a whole new fricken world for whats possible in areal maneuvering. i get its hard on a keyboard but thats why you reaaaly should be using a controller for driving/flying games but i wont get into that.

Something the Force indicators and warnings don't mention that the opposite of stability for airplanes isn't necessarily instability but also maneuverability.

I'm still testing if "as far forward without a warning" or "as far backward with a warning" is optimal (might be a personal preference/skill thing).

I beat this campaign in 6 hours and it was in one session, I wish there was a bit more content but it was a nice breath of fresh air for the airborne side of things in this game

[@steeljawX]

If you want "ultimate Rolling Thunder" with the bombs, do the following. Get 10 bomb bays and arrange them in a 2 wide 5 deep form with them running length-wise to your creation pointing downwards. Set either the right or left side up with a 1 second incremental delay between them. So the front most bay does not have a delay, but the second has a 1 second delay, the third has a 2 second delay and so forth up to the fifth bomb bay on that side having a 4 second delay. It takes bomb bays 1 second to deploy all their bombs and 4 seconds to reload. So that alone will get you a non-stop rolling thunder bomb drop. But if you set the other side the same way but with an additional 0.15 delay added to each bomb bay, it'll be enough of an offset to drop a bomb in the delay period of the other side's bomb dropping. In a musical sense, you go from quarter beats to 1/8th beats with this. And with the timing being set to being perfectly in line with the reload and discharge of the bomb bays, it's a never ending rolling thunder drop of just blanketing a line of the ground with bombs. If you copy this over 3 or 4 times over a larger bomber, you can truly carpet bomb an area into oblivion. Side note, anyone else a little concerned with how dismissal Scrapman is about these Chirpos working on actual wormholes? I mean it sounds like one thing, but this is a game where intergalactic travel is possible, so I would not put it past these bird people to have that technology. Also a small spoiler for anyone playing along, the Hoodoos are basically the "logic" central of the game. If you're looking for logic parts to unlock, go to the Hoodoos because that's where they are. It's not much of a spoiler really, but it's something I learned and kind of wish I had known while playing.

[@whacker9265]

Hey Scrapman, *TAIL GUN!* this would solve the issue of getting shot from behind, also having weapons mounted facing towards the side, so that you can fire at the enemies, without stalling your aircraft, or worrying about the speed reduction, or having their projectiles, be coming straight at you, as you fly towards them. Also, I would greatly encourage finding different solutions for the weight problem besides adding literal weights to the front of your plane, making it heavier.

[@DETHdressedInRED]

27:00 this has reignited my passion for aircraft games in a big way. If you know world of tanks, there's a much lesser known game they made I used to play called world of warplanes and you can fly combat biplanes from WWI through until the mid 60s jets. It died horribly when they made some really bad changes to the game, but now I have a new way to do biplane battles with my friends!!!!! Dude if you can you should suggest to the devs to set up like matchmaking for airplane battles that have very specific requirements to enter the marching in order to make PVP air battles even and more common. This is so great.

It's all about moments, distance from fulcrum X force. You keep building planes with wings at the nose. Give the forces some distance from the fulcrum to impart a larger moment for a given force. Anyway, you want your thrust low, weight forward, lift in the middle and tail far back for a stable A/C CG and CL closer with higher wings and all mass closer to the CG for a more maneuverable A/C

5:16 When you put the horizantal wings on the tail of the plane they created lift. This pushed the tail up and the nose down, this is why you couldn't pitch up but it was easy to pitch down.
