War Thunder | Optimal Climb Strategy for ARH Employment | F-16, AIM-120
I have seen multiple posts on the subreddit showing terrible climb profiles that are essentially zoom climbs to 30kft. These leave you with minimal energy & extremely vulnerable. It is better to climb relatively shallow, holding a high IAS. Not only do you get up to altitude fast enough, but you arrive going way faster. From there you could even do a substantially more effective zoom climb if you want to loft the missiles.
Speed is much more important than altitude for the missile's total energy. According to the laws of physics:
* Kinetic energy = Ek = (mv^2)/2
* Gravitational potential energy ("altitude energy") = Ep = mgh
The key variables we control are v - velocity and h - height. Velocity, however, is squared - this means velocity is substantially more impactful to the total energy you impart onto the missile launch.
tl;dr - Going fast is better than going high.
This is of course not to discount going high. These modern(-ish) planes can only reach these insanely high speeds at altitude anyway. Plus it gives the missile more opportunity to fly through thinner air, helping its energy conservation. The main point is you should be conserving your own energy rather than foolishly giving it up in a zoom climb right at the start of the match - but I digress.

BeamNG - Hotlap on Italy

A challenging mountainous loop. Not pictured: all the crashing to get this one clean run. There is probably a fair amount of improvement possible. Resetting constantly had me much better at the start than the end, so I was really trying to live rather than push by the climb portion. Improve on my time? Send me the vid!

BeamNG.drive ESC bug(?) analysis
มุมมอง 424 หลายเดือนก่อน
Similar entry speeds, similar steering input, radically different ESC behavior. This shows buggy ESC behavior in BeamNG.drive. ESC appears to be prone to randomly locking the outer front wheel, inducing massive understeer. It makes the car extremely unpredictable and nearly uncontrollable. I am not exactly sure what triggers this behavior, hence me suggesting it is "random". There are a few thi...

Assetto Corsa Drifting without Handbrake or Clutch Kicking
มุมมอง 1709 หลายเดือนก่อน
I have seen many commenters and videos that recommend using the handbrake or clutch kicking to newbie drifters. Both of these are not actually necessary to drift, and I would argue dilute understanding of the car's behavior. In this video 100% of the rotation is coming from a combination of steering, throttle, and brake inputs - no handbrake or clutch! Setup: G29 w/ shifter Samsung G8 OLED monitor

Winning a 1v2 dogfight can be tricky, even with an energy advantage. Luckily the F-5C is just about the best rate fighter at 10.3. F-1 is pretty tragic but I don't care since I used to main Britain - the F-1 has same if not marginally better performance than Jaguar GR.1A (which I also have a 2:1 K/D in - keep in mind I regularly see F-5C players who are K/D negative or *pukes* BASE BOMBING).

Ti-84 Plus CE Simplifying Radicals
มุมมอง 5K7 ปีที่แล้ว
Faster than your brain eh This works on the principal y*((x/y^2)^0.5) = x^0.5 to simplify radicals using a for loop and running through 40. There is possibly a faster way to do this by cutting Y off when it could not possibly be a valid integer, but then for large numbers it'd take longer, so I chose to just go to 40 or 50 because it is still reasonably fast.

    yeah but altitudemay not be as important for energy, it is however very importent due to less drag, therefore higher energy retention. i value both factors equally or tend a little more to speed (1:1,25)

  • @RedTail1-1
    @RedTail1-1 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Doesn't matter how fast you are as long as you are above mach so it doesn't waste energy breaking the sound barrier. Altitude also matters more than speed. The more gravity the missile can use to hold speed the better, because 8 seconds after you fire it it's losing speed anyway.

    • @HarryTheOwlcat
      @HarryTheOwlcat 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The video directly addresses why speed is more important than altitude.

  • @DkVader2k
    @DkVader2k 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Instead of flying level, I fly at a 20* angle ascending until I get to about mach 1.02(and when I am I’m already at 10m feet) then I pull up to a 50 degrees angle. I get up to 30ft by the time everyone pass the 2nd airbase. You loose a lot of speed doing this but you have plenty of time to get it back whilst scanning for targets. I’m normally the 1st person to get up to that altitude in matches, which helps tremendously to getting in the first shot against other high flyers.
