It's a buff to 1/4 rounds in the stealth belt. So basically the best case scenario, if the pre-buff round was useless, is a 33% increase in effectiveness. Some people haven't noticed a difference. I personally think there's a small difference.

Did you buy it recently? Because both used to be basically identical, the 150 octane buff for the Mk III is fairly recent!

[@kurrents6112]

In any normal prop that doesn’t have twin engines, here’s how you stop a flat spin. 1. Cut throttle and hold rudder opposite of spin 2. Hold the elevator into a dive (the plane should start rocking, this is good) 3. Once the plane starts diving, it should automatically correct the spin. 4. Throttle up and profit

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

With mouse aim RB, your controls are often locked when spinning so they aren't effective.

Cut throttle, nose down and rudder to the opposite side of the spin

Hello Mr. Adam great video as per usual. Just wanted to ask, is the characteristic box that shows stuff like thrust, you have in the top left of some of your videos (not this on) something that you can get through settings in Warthunder? Or from somewhere else? Thanks.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

It's called the "local host". How to access the "local host": You need to be running War Thunder or it won't work! Option 1: on the same computer that is running WT: -Type localhost:8111/ in the address bar and press enter and voila. Option 2 (which also works on the computer that runs WT): -Type Your_IP_Address:8111/ where you replace "Your_IP_Address" by your IP Address (192.168.X.XXX) in the address bar and press enter and voila, you can look at the characteristics on another device while flying. You're better off using this overlay though.

I did not, he took me out later.

How do you have the controls configured to always have the enemy in view and maneuver?

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

I just use c and use keyboard for elevator and ailerons.

[@Eruthian]

@@AdamTheEnginerd That always makes me so sad. Cuz I got used to my old keybindings so much, everytime I try to asign my rudder and elevator to a useful position, I can`t get used to it xD. In hairy situations, I always have to kind of guess, whyt the enemy on my six is doing. Ah well... At least I kind of "mastered" that, but still... xD

[@notcheems2783]

the british can never design a high-rip speed flap system eh?

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Yeah I guess not.

[@tczm7269]

*war thunder can never model flap systems properly

[@stefanogalliano5634]

Nowadays 60% of crits is superficial structural damage like fuselage/cowling

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Pretty close to what I think as well.

[@lambsaucy69]

Did u survive the 109 at the end?

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

I outran the 190, but later I went vertical just a bit too early and he shot me right before stalling himself, and I died.

Are you getting weird stutters or fps issues on this map? And also stutters when you change from free look back to normal mouse aim? I don't remember it being like this until fairly recently

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

On any map I get them when recording recently. But I made a couple of changes, and it happens less now.

[@affrajam1816]

@@AdamTheEnginerd Just curious, are you using AMD processor or graphics? seems to be affecting amd users the most.

How your channel does not have over 250k subscribers is concerning your videos are fire

Haha thanks for the kind words! To be honest, my content is pretty niche, so I didn't expect to get as many subs as my current number of subs.

Yeah, but I prefer the Yak3U over it, you should watch my Yak3U video.

I can I guess, but it won't be intuitive for other people. It's close to default anyway with MEC and elevator added.

The kill on the ta 152 h was way too epic. He thought negative g was enough to save him...

That's one thing the Hornet does relatively well.
