Just learn the stand-off ranges.

Strela goes at most 5km, your Vikhrs reach 7km, up to 12km if you get enough altitude so they can coast down. Most AAA doesn't reach beyond 2.5-3km, while you can use the cannon fairly effectively from 4km. Rockets and gunpods are close-quarters weapon; just use them to mop up after threats have been dealt with. Even so, you can use those from 2km, while the average MG won't reach beyond 1.5km.

Don't worry about how to dodge, worry about staying out of reach in the first place.

Bah, that's no fun. Draw your sword and charge for victory and glory!

Should have seen me circling that convoy.

Just need to trim it properly for the hover-hold to have enough input to actually hold. If you're drifting, press and hold the trimmer, manually correct so it stays in hover and release. Hover-hold will take care of the small adjustments needed to stay in hover; it can't bring you into one while flying at 80km an hour (not a good one anyway).

Up and running, be there in 30mins.

I'm surprised Schroeder, surprised and disappointed in you.
Since you could not be courageous enough to deploy it, I shall do it for you.

Raptor, here you go:

In other news, wish I could join you guys but I have a strooong hunch that it would take one look at my machine and choke and die.

And that's not even beginning on my finances at the moment

Raptor1 · 05-30-10, 12:52 PM

I think I need something a tad more fire-resistant...

HunterICX · 05-30-10, 01:14 PM

I need a new kamov

@Oberon: you're able to run ArmA which is more demanding on System requirement then this.

at least so it is in theory.
