For a Dutch Guy who gets high altitude sickness while standing on a playing card, you sure can fly well! :)
Which is funny because the Dutch are usually pretty good at being high.
At 1:04 in the video, does it sucked you completely?
Highlarious
Hello Father
My favorite part is that he said it's a 10 minute video, and it's like 23. Even with his fast talking and sick flying.
06:54 About as mountainous as the average map in air rb, so pretty accurate representation tbh.
Air RB is flat bu as an arcade player I can guarantee that's for the bes
You are one of the few WT CCs producing consistent content at this point, I hope this channel grows.
Me too
I’m here from the future, it did
It is absolutely experience based. You learn what works and what doesn't. If you died, think about what could have been done better and work on it. Yes some situations are unwinnable. Everyone loves seeing a Zero above and beyond when fly the P-51.
I agree to an extent, as experience allows you to learn what didn’t work. However, no one move works. Just playing a lot won’t improve your performance until you play a lot with the right mindset like this video completely demonstrates.
Knowing your A/C strengths, and your enemies weaknesses. Then exploiting them. Judging energy states, and reacting accordingly. Its a thinking mans game, and an adapting game. I have a clip on my channel with a zero that shows up high above me in a P-51K.
Using the P-51’s strengths against the zeros weaknesses. He dies in 30 seconds. Nothing is an impossible situation, especially when you’re in a great a/c like a P-51 as long as you’re always thinking of a plan, and executing it. Experience of practicing with a purpose is the key! You’ll never get better just playing a lot, and trying “moves”.
Everytime I see a zero above my p51d30 I say nope and run and sideclimb until the situation improves.
@@JelqSmith It’s not running, its equalizing the energy ;). In my case, in my P-51k video, it appeared up high very close above me. I let him dive on me, knowing the zero compresses and it’s roll rate sufferers at high speed. I just put it into a slight dive and did some slight turns back and forth until he was about to overshoot. Faked a turn fight vertical for about half a circle. Dived out out as soon as he thought I was dumb enough to turn fight him, evaded some long range sprays on the way out. Extended until he turned away, then I turned back into him and shot him down in the first pass. EZ! Took no less than 30 Seconds.
@@onyourkilllist6880 Very impressive and well done. It’s funny when I’m flying away to climb and equalize the energy against a zero or something else I can’t out turn, they often try to taunt me in the chat that I’m a coward. I just laugh and ignore them, thinking nice try.
@@JelqSmith They only are saying that for 2 reasons. 1, they’re dumb, or 2 they know what you’re doing and they’re frustrated you’re a smart player.
I’ve been trying to become a better pilot. A lot of people just say “practice” but knowledge of what to do is helpful. What else am I supposed to “practice” you show the skills in a understandable way I appreciate that! Thank you so much!
in my beginner time playing air RB, i often watched the replay of the game which contain me dogfighting somebody, if the result i won the fight, i try to figure what moves that make me winning, and if i lose i try to figure what moves made me defeated or screw my flight path
and 1 more thing, if the footage is containing me as a defender and succed reversed and killed my pursuer, i watch the replay in my enemy POV, so i can see clearly what kind of manouver made him struggle pointing his nose to my plane, honestly it worth to try and helped me a lot in the game
you can go into a custom game with a friend and dogfight them 1v1 and count how many times you win to their wins, when you win see what you did and remember that, then add 1 more person to the dogfight, so on and so on.
A good way to simplify this on how to get someone off u without getting killed if you’re not skilled or can’t remember all of it.
In the F-104 clip where he’s chasing the more maneuverable plane, what’s killing the A-5 is that he reverses too soon.
Wait until the guy on you actually pulls lead before you reverse your direction. If you do that the lead he pulls works against him, especially if he doesn’t roll well. If you reverse your turn like a madman (like the A-5 in the F-104 clip) and do it BEFORE he starts pulling lead, you’re just flying back toward his guns.
That’s why you aren’t reversing a P-47 in your zero, you’re just spinning in circles and flying back into his guns over and over
I've completely mastered defensive flying in the time it took you to upload this. But ill still watch to support my favorite wt content creator XD.
Same here. Had to learn it all by myself as an average player.But still useful to reenforce what you've learned.
Confident much
My favourite Defyn videos: 1- Guides 2- Planes nobody fly 3- Props 4- Subsonics 5- The rest, including top tiers.
Please do a guide on how to fly with keyboard while eyeballing enemy behind us.
I know it might be pretty silly and basic for you, but some players could use that a bit (including me).
I love your content, and this episode is no different. It brings me knowledge.
Hold c, look behind, and use keyboard elevator, rudder, and aileron control
Just use the free look key bind and manually use your rudders, ailerons and elevator. Pretty simple, much more effective than using a controller.
@@Ziiphyr It's simple, sure, but it sure as hell isn't easy.
I use space bar as my free look. Before that I had trouble and now I can reverse the majority of players
I don’t play much war thunder these days (DCS warbird guy) - but your Summary of defensive rolling is illustrated well. Rolling towards the wingtips and staying out of sync with his wings are paramount 👌🏻
Absolute masterclass, thanks for putting in so much effort, it was truly worth it!
Thank you so much for taking the time to explain all of this to the newb players like myself. Just started playing and especially after watching the “how to aim” video I immediately noticed a difference in the way I play and my end game score. I’m sure this video will also help to improve my abilities. I have also shared the “how to aim” video with some friends who also benefited from it. You are by far the best at explaining these tactics and also keeping the video informative and interesting.
This is really helpful. I haven't flown for a year on war thunder and this course is refreshing everything and adding to the knowledge I already had with even more new information. Thanks!
I appreciate all your videos, I'm slowly working through them while playing. Stopped playing for years, and came back a bit more excited to fly, and must say that your videos are smooth, easy to understand and extremely informative.
If the level 5 F5Cs see this I am done. Their most dangerous defenses are wiggling left and right slightly and (god forbid) holding A/D + S 😱
I main the F-5C and it‘s most dangerous move is just to rate fight you to death, if flown right you can just turn for as long as their AOA allows to… other than that: totalöy agree with you 😂
@@PerriThePlatyPilot Actually I don't know if I agree with the rate fight. It's not bad but it doesn't have the thrust to maintain that much speed, at least not like a mig19 or f5E. The f5C can also pull some insane aoa which will bleed speed in any plane. I'd say it's better off in a nose to nose fight
@@phat3330 No it doesn't, you have to let go of the S key for once in a while (that's why the Level 5 players never get to do this). It's pretty much the same as the F-5E, you keep it at Mach 0.90 - Mach 0.99, the F-5s generate a ton of Thrust at those speeds (even the C model).
Yes they do pull AoA at times but that's not always the case and it shouldn't be. The Airframe is amazing, one of the best, it's also very small to hit, so turning correctly makes you a very small target wich is desirable when you're on the other end of Russian 30mm Cannons and stuff.
It's a balanced plane, but get below that magic number and the F-5C struggles to get it's speed back and will get caught left and right, and as Prof. Defyn already said once: A slow Plane, is a dead Plane.
@@phat3330 I have rate fighted an MLD and won pretty comfortably with the F5E
@@PerriThePlatyPilot Yeah it's at those speeds I meant, an f5E can get that speed back alot easier and doesn't get below that speed as often. I still think a nose to nose fight is better in most cases but against a deltawing you should of course get into a nose to tail cause those just fall out of the sky hahah
What an excellent and comprehensive description at the end. The Point went Home. Thanks, Defyn
i like the detail level of animation you brought us. you even included greenery like in 7:32. brilliant.
i am not very good at reversals, even if i know some theory. getting a refresh is always good, and i never have seen a grafical analysis where you wanna be like yours. very informative, ty.
I love this series, this helps a lot in giving you the right ideas that you then have to make work for yourself. Amazing video!
DEFYN I have to say your guides really helped me get better at air RB and cut down on a lot of frustration.
Thanks for making this dude, the effort put into this is incredible
babe wake up new defyn tutorial came out
I really appreciate these videos that you do they've helped me improve so much it's almost unreal. Your content is unparalleled imo, especially the death cuts 🤣🤣🤣
these guides are probably the best you can get on youtube pls keep making them
You're a legend. Thanks for the effort that you put into improving the community, Defyn.
Watching this even a year after it was made I learned so much. Thanks for the lesson teach
Mig-15 and 17 mains trying to roll :
@_Alzie_ myeah but still far from the Sabre's roll lol
@@sosobel5843 The MiG-17's roll rate actually isn't that bad
@@jaek__ yeah but under the average
You need to use rudder inputs when defensively rolling in the 15 and 17.
@@dreamtree1510 yeeeee I knoow lol
Awesome video. For the longest time with props I didn’t understand how defensive flying worked and figured anyone on my six had me. Thanks to the times I overshot people, the video of AdamTheEnginerd in his f8f, and this video, I realize the fight isn’t over until it’s over. Never give up in props.
I hadn't quite gotten used to the rolling aspect and the diamond thing really helped now that I'm at jets. Thanks!
Mutch awaited fourth installment, been getting some friends into the game and air RB, this dropped at the perfect time! This has been their greatest struggle, defensive flying.
7:23 look at mr comedy over here
Comedian with a doctorate in Art
Damn this definetely is one of those videos i wish i watched a year or so ago, also one of the first of its kind to explain stuff so clearly, thanks for the amzing video.
Fuck yeah. Absolutely marvelous, DEFYN. Been waiting a long time for this and you’ve delivered exceptionally as usual.
I know you haven't uploaded these often but when you do I get so excited. They're so helpful and I watch them several times.
I sure love the way you draw those mountain ranges
Solid as always, teach. Cheers to the next one.
dude youre honestly the best channel ive ever come across. thank you so much for all the information. :D
Thanks for all the tips you have made
Thank you so much ive been waiting for this man !!
Very good man. This really has helped me. Thank you.
Love this type of content. Aslo, watching DEFYN cover BawZ in ground RB was absolutely epic!
Great videos man keep up the good work
Thanks for the guide, amazing as always!
OMG NEW TRAINING VIDEO thank you so much defyn!
ive been looking forward to this! this is great!
Appreciate all your videos! These helped me expedite learning props!
Excellent tutorial, keep it up Defyn !
Thank you, I have learnt a lot from this video, now to put in the practice! Worth watching again.
I learned a lot more than I thought I would - great video!
That's legendary kind of mig-21 you put there in the positioning explanation 🤣
Another amazing guide but honestly i picked quite a few things of it already when you react on yr gameplay. Keep it up!
Awesome video! I love the format it s so perfect!
This made a lot of sense. This def helped thank you.
That is some beautifully flying
Great videos man, they really help
This video helped me a lot. Now flying makes a lot more fun. Thanks !
Very amazing video that gave a ton of info in a great way. Thanks for this
LETS GOOOO! New Defyn Vid about flying! WOOOO!
Thank you for this. Amazing explanations.
I love ur videos are always helpful as I’m new. I’ve loved planes since I saw one of ur videos so thx for inspiring me.
Can't wait for a video on lines. I've been big chimping it with instinctual flying for too long.
Perfect timing I needed this!
Thanks for the time in making this vid keep it up
You are so awesome and i truly appreciate your guides, i have over 1000 hours but still come back
Dutch man says good job to me and made me feel warm and fuzzy inside, that earned a like
Defyn I may be replying a year after this video was released, I recently bought the F4EJ ADTW, this video helped so much! I got to the f86 sabre on Japan within days!
The number of times I snorted or laughed in such a technically dense video speaks to what an absolute work of art this is.
Thankyou my friend just the video I needed
It’s vids like this that get me my rank doesn’t matter medals, it’s very satisfying to see it pop up
Thank you great video boss. Cheers.
methodical and clear. great video
I’d like to point out that especially in jets, Crew Mastery is important to get the critical lead. If you main that jet, you better splash those 1.x Million Silver Birds. Because often you will find that even you do everything right, the last degrees of pitch or the critical second of G load is missing due to lack of crew skills.
But then again, he is absolutely correct. If you are defensive, there is no point in relying on your sick plays, it’s about you get him off your tail and deny him the kill shot. Every second counts, you can dance around, he might not hit you, you can try a reversal you do so good, but in the end someone else will pick you with an missile. It’s better to not get defensive at all and remain in control.
Love this type of content.
Making your postfx red also increases the chances of people flying into your guns
Finally, a good video on this
I thought I was subed already..fixed that been watching your channel for a long time love the content
literally just searched for this video from you last night and here it is xD thanks G
I learned how to do this by just playing a lot of air rb and now I do it ecatly like in those clips. What helped me a lot with defensive flying was binding keys to elevator so that I can use mouse to see where the enemy is and what is he doing while at the same time maneuvering.
Great vid, thanks!
"Were not here for fun were here to try and survive the match" truly the war thunder mindset
Great stuff! I loved the secret sauce!
Bedankt voor je video ik ben nu met mijn AV-8A VS aan het grinden.
This is really helpful, thank you
Your videos are great and helpful
wow great video even though i know i can never be on this level but still watched from start to finish
This helped so much thanks for the awesome vid
These 20 minutes were more than worth it!!!
This helped me so much! I also turned off cross platform games. (I am on PlayStation.) with that and your video, top tier is really fun!
Thank you so much!
This helped a lot also I love your videos!
Deserved the sub!
This is really good. I just started playing and I loved this video. Thanks for your hard work on this video/
I didn't understand literally anything, but I am still grateful. Thanks!
That was a great mate 👍🏽
cheerz def. nice tutorial.
Love your content man ❤️
I’m gonna sign up for your Patreon and I’ve never done that before
Thank you DEFYN
That box diagram with the 109 and P-38 was pretty damn helpful, I guess now it’s all down to how close you are to the ground and whether the dude, either through luck or skill, hits the shot 👍
I love your explanation vids :)
great job defyn😉
best tutorial for me so far
Good videos! Thank you very much
Ain't gonna lie, this guy... has a good sense of humor
