    Wow - only 96 comments? This was such a well produced and thoughtfully conceived video, I appreciate it! Taught me more than any flying tutorials from 'ace' pilots with 40,000 subs. I've been a longtime player but never took it that seriously. I'm now realizing there's a lot that War Thunder doesn't tell us about what we need to know - and the guys at the higher tiers seem to know it, but they're not telling either :-). Thanks for all your attention to detail and thorough, easy to understand descriptions. Prost.

      👍 I'm a new War. ⛈Thunder player and you are 100% correct. Tons of War ⛈ Thunder videos and sadly finding videos actually worth 👀 watching are as rare as hen's teeth. 😬 Ugh!

    This is great Sher, thanks so much.
    And I do think it is good for beginners to, though mainly for climbing and getting into position. But it is easy to forget with so many other things on your mind.
    Most would give up as I kind of did.
    But now I am flying sim and I need it worse than ever, so hopefully I can keep on top of it, though I am a bit noobish.

    Great tutorial Sheriff! Thanks! Will give this a try - particularly impressed by the difference between engine temps using AEC/MEC (Spit - @ end of vid).
    As a slight 'aside', clearly you are using head-tracking. Is that VR or TrackIR? If it's TrackIR (which I use) how do you get such nice flowing head movements? And (if TrackIR).... would you share your config file...? ;)

    • @SheriffsSimShack
      @SheriffsSimShack  Před 5 lety

      This is my TIR File, pretty old by now and pretty sure I would change a few things.
      And the temperatures of the spit would now be different, with all the changes in WT.

  • @komsomolac
    @komsomolac Před 4 lety

    This is very informative. Do you have any suggestions for flying MiG-3? I don't understand why the MiG has aileron trimmer in RB, but not in SB. This makes it very difficult to fly in SB. I have to battle the plane constantly as it tends to roll on one side and I have no aileron trimmer to compensate.

    • @SheriffsSimShack
      @SheriffsSimShack  Před 4 lety

      I now that you can start a test flight, change the trim of any axis in any plane and then can fixate the trim with the corresponding button.

  • @avitus5770
    @avitus5770 Před 5 lety

    For some reason none of this works. I have the keys set up exactly like you, and yet when I press them it either does nothing or says the current percentage. As a side note, this is also true for trim controls.

  • @TigrisGamingCML
    @TigrisGamingCML Před 8 lety

    Hey, thanks. I've been dicking about with MEC recently and the only real question I have left is in the way War Thunder handles Prop Pitch. In a constant rpm aircraft like the Spitfire IX... if I switch on manual engine control, is the prop pitch control adjusting RPM, not pure pitch?
    Cause on the bottom it still *says* pitch. So I wanted to make sure. Doesn't help that my German is super rusty so I couldn't just confirm on your vid, haha.
    I just got into Sim this month, god knows what I was doing wasting my time with a joystick and TIR all this time in RB. Loving it, looking forward to testing my skills against you soon. (Or if you're ever looking for another wingman, shoot me a msg, I fly mostly Brits, but I'm up to 3.3 in Germans now)

    • @SheriffsSimShack
      @SheriffsSimShack  Před 8 lety +1

      +Tigris Gaming Yes you are right, if you are flying a plane with a contant speed propeller the "pitch control" controls not the pitch but the RPM. You are right

    • @SheriffsSimShack
      @SheriffsSimShack  Před 7 lety

      Just activate "relative Control" in the axis controls of the key you want to bind

  • @sunrrrise
    @sunrrrise Před 7 lety +1

    Is there any benefit from MEC in WT? I mean as far as I know everyone uses AUTO engine management so I think mastering MEC is only for one's personal satisfaction cause engine managent adds another thing to do. To be honest I also complicate my virtual life cause I mostly fly with HUD completely off ;)
    And in my personal opinion MEC for > Bf 109E-4 and Fw190 (which had engine automanagemer or even Kommandogerät in BMW engines) is art for art's sake. Even real pilots did not manage engine manaully in combat.

    • @SheriffsSimShack
      @SheriffsSimShack  Před 7 lety +3

      I recomend to whatch the video completely. Especially the last part regarding the benefits.
      I personally dont use MEC on Fw190s. Due to the Kommandogerät and the manual Proppitch if flown in MEC Mode.

    • @sunrrrise
      @sunrrrise Před 7 lety

      Got me, I skipped that part :/
      I did not care about AEC or MEC cause I mostly fly German fighters. But on the other hand your video shows that WT is seriously fokked up... I had a dream about "Experten" servers in SB mode but it does not make sense any longer.

    • @ggoddkkiller1342
      @ggoddkkiller1342 Před 7 lety +1

      Awesome video mate thank you so much! Thanks to you i understand almost everything. I got premium P51D-10 recently and it has heat problem, engine gets cooked so quickly even if i don't use wep much. It has different FM than D-5 or D-30. So im trying to use MEC for fixing this problem and it works engine gets cooler with MEC settings even if i always use wep. But i sense im loosing power, especially at higher alt. Mixture isn't changeable could it cause less power? While climbing i use %90 prop pitch, it seems better than %100 for P51D-10 but im not sure.

  • @skyflier8955
    @skyflier8955 Před 7 lety

    I'm having a little trouble with the prop pitch. I know that it is better left alone, but l do want to play with it a little. I understand how it works, but I don't know what setting to use it on. I was playing around, and jacked it up to 100% and it instantly killed my engine, and I don't know why it does this. Can someone explain some of the best/ most common setting for prop pitch and why it instantly killed my engine.
    I'm mainly flying the Bf109 F-4.

  • @ArcherAC3
    @ArcherAC3 Před 7 lety

    7:00 How did you takeoff full WEP out of idle? If I do that, my plane will violently swerve to the left (or right), and I won't be able to keep it centered on the runway even with full opposite rudder and individual wheel brake.
    During my takeoffs I'm always forced to slowly increase the throttle so I can control my plane, while my teammates takeoff so fast. Any idea on what I'm doing wrong? (Maybe my low rudder sensitivity?)

    • @matstick1100
      @matstick1100 Před 7 lety +1

      Arch3rAc3 you can trim your rudder beforehand​, but he may have mastered the torque effect to a certain extent that it makes it seem like there is no torque at all

    • @ArcherAC3
      @ArcherAC3 Před 6 lety

      The thing is, even if I apply full opposite rudder from the very beginning, it won't counter the torque (in some planes at least). So even if it's trimmed, the torque is too "strong" as to say.

    • @colebishoff1533
      @colebishoff1533 Před 3 lety

      Have your Sim controls set up? When I was first starting on sb I had a bunch of problems keeping the plane straight on the runway regardless of input. You gotta def set up new controls if your playing Sim. Mouse and even keyboard is pretty garbage for sb. Use a controller or joystick

    • @NOTJustANomad
      @NOTJustANomad Před 7 lety

      I understand now. Because the settings for each device used to be "increase value" and "decrease value", now they turn into "maximum value" and "minimum value" which makes it impossible to change the values precisely. If you've set them up before, the increase/decrease settings stay there. but if you haven't down that before and want to set up MEC now, it's only possible to set up to either 100%, 50% or 0%. which is dumb.

    • @SheriffsSimShack
      @SheriffsSimShack  Před 7 lety +3
