Perfect! I’ll check it out!
Gotta advertise your fan squadron too smh
Doc H. My profile is adam4reals. I think I’ve seen you and your friends in game doc. I was flying a Japanese corsair and I was talking smack in the chat and your whole squad ate me...
Adam Saffell yes, I remember you. You told me to step on a Lego
Make a video on camera control, keeping focus on enemy, and keybindings
Adam taking a P-38 into the 109 swarm: "I'm not trapped up here with you, *you're trapped up here with me.* "
Haha!
Benjo Kazooie Like the doom slayer
Fun fact: P-38 ace Robin Olds also scored a kill with his engines off.
Just like me.
Yeah m8 saw that on history channel's dogfight. He is the only one ever to kill in glide mode
4:24, that background soundtrack could not be more appropriate. Exactly what would play in a protagonist outnumbered scene.
EDIT: Physics video on flaps would be awesome. "Poor turn" and "good flaps" seem to be contradictory, although I can see the Spitfires easily having the opposite description so I think maybe "strong flaps"(durability and/or low speed lift boost(?)) or "quick flaps" may be better future descriptions.
Haha indeed!
Flap video is on my list! When I talk about turn in the pros and cons, it's without flaps. And when I talk about flaps it's how much they increase turn and their speed limits.
@@AdamTheEnginerd so flaps are like duct tape on top of the wing's clean performance?
That was crazy fight, when you ran out of fuel and still got him I went crazy 😂 really enjoyed this video, great work Adam 👍🏻
Indeed, thanks!
I’d prefer to an assembly kit rather than a pre-made model. You are missing 90% of fun without building it by yourself.
Hmm different tastes. I'd prefer a pre-made model for myself.
That's my issue. I have no problem with pre-mades, but I prefer actually building the plane. If they had construction models I'd definitely buy one.
I also prefer building my models, makes me feel accomplished
Beautiful fighting as always, hope the new PC is working better for you than the fuel load did... o7
Thanks! Yeah it's working well.
Overlay guy after being thanked: *happy overlay noises*
Haha!
Anyone know what overlay it is? I like it!
Impressive fight, dealing with so many enemies at the same time.
You've been flying at 105% throttle. Full WEP is 110% but a red "WEP" appears above 102% throttle so it can be misleading.
Difference in actual horsepower with throttle between 102-110% is very very small though, so you probably had only ~1hp less than normal. Still, it's inefficient ;)
Overlay made by "Overlay Guy" is pretty and I like it.
However, i think WTRTI - War Thunder Real Time Information overlay is better. It can log data into .csv and has indicators such as "turn time" and WEP remaining" which are useful. It's also available for everyone.
Overlay Guy has a competition :P
I've checked and I really don't see a difference. On planes with WEP, it's either on or off.
Haha he does.
@@AdamTheEnginerd Yes, that's what i meant by saying that varying between 102-110% throttle changes the power by only 1hp or so.
Basically no difference between 102% WEP and 110% WEP
the difference is pretty large with afterburning jets ive noticed, or at least with the f-4 last i tested it
U shooting to slow down at the end scared me.
Good ;).
Lmao the kill feed at the beginning just shows the uselessness and stupidity of certain allied teams. There are good teems and really bad ones...
It was predictable, more than half the team were bombers or fighters with ordnance.
I once had a team that was entirely bombers/interceptors. 4 ju288 and all DO 335 with 1 HE51 which technically counts as a single engine fighter to go with my TA154.
@@adamsaffell2361 Lemme guess, the Do 335s weren't that good and didn't work together. The Ju-288s compressed into the ground and the German team still won due to the allied team all trying to turnfight the He-51. All the while crashing and team killing each other because they were fighting over the kill. Meanwhile the He-51 kills 5 enemy planes??
Martijn lmao. We got clapped...
I once had a amazing allied team. The fighters worked together almost all players were chatting and covering we all communicated well and i think we only lost one guy on our team and stomped the axis team.
The allied teams have hit rock bottom lately. I dont know what can save us. Enduring confrontation? JU288 rebalance? I'm desperate, I don't want this game to die.
If the teams were even, I think I'd be bored.
Climb maybe?
Just balance the game and rework the game modes (let's start with that).
Firstly, a lot of aircrafts, especially at low Tier and mostly Axe's ones, have weird low BR for their performances.
Next, WT devs don't seem to know what to do with bombers and attackers in Air RB, so you either have them being useless or end the match in 5 minutes.
Three or four years ago, they introduced late game groups of vehicles and give attackers/bombers who are still alive late in the match a chance to be a threat and finish it. And did a pretty good job at first. Then for no reason they nerfed this mechanic to the ground by making them appear so late they are now pretty irrelevant (because you often kill the enemy team before that) and you need to destroy a whole group to make the enemy team lose tickets. And on top of that they nerfed the amount of tickets bleed.
In fact one of the only time a bomber won against my team (fair and square on Sicily) was back then, by rushing one of those group of vehicles and destroying 2 or 3 right under my nose. I saw him (a B-17 or B-24) too late and we lost because of my lack of vigilance.
I really have no idea why they nerfed it when it was better than what we have now. Gaijin never really comment their decisions on those things which is another bad thing about them, lack of communication.
EC also gave a place for bombers where they would be more welcome.
Adam, there will always be newbies/mindless grinders and experimented players, the probability to always have balanced teams is therefore pretty low ;)
@@bruno01_ The big brains watching Adam's channel gets this. It's gen pop that's the problem. We need more creative solutions man.
Yay im early
Did you know you can have ias and tas at the same time now? And how did u get that overlay, pls tell :)
Yup I know, but I already had both.
Overlay is a program that someone made for me.
AdamTheEnginerd i hope he shares the program :)
I love watching you do your thing in that twin engine beauty! I need to get on war thunder again soon. It’s been quite a while lol!!
It has been indeed!
@Derp Inshmurtz Yes!
airspawn? since when does it get an airspawn? i havnt played ut in a long while
Since like a month ago. All P38s (heavy fighters in general) have airspawn now.
@@AdamTheEnginerd And all tier 4 P-38s don't deserve it
@@martijn9568 I'd say they deserve it more than the Ta 152s at least. P-38s aren't that great, very heavy on the controls and heavy compression so they definitely need the edge to complete.
@@aerohydra3849 They climb on par or better than the P-47s and P-51 D-5 and you can turn with most 109s and the M.C. 205. It's just a plane you have get close in with and try to get into a lower speed dogfight.
And the Ta-152s definitely don't deserve the air spawn and I'm starting to think that after having flown the FW 190 A-8, that it doesn't deserve it either.
To test your aim, i challenge you to fly the mb157, I think that with your laser aim it can be quite good
It's on my list!
@@AdamTheEnginerd thank you! Just to ask, how long is that list?
@@paullewis770 Pretty much every fighter was requested haha.
Could you maybe play the F86a5? I’ve been grinding to the phantom with it and I’m almost there!
It's on my list!
hey Adam, I'd love to fly some matches with you if possible. Maybe even learn a thing or 2 in duels, if you're interested.
Best bet is to join the Discord.
3:49 Lööping was a very nice choice in that situation, very nice indeed.
As always ;).
Every time I use a high altitude fighter such as a P-47D/N, I always have that altitude advantage, but every time I dive on an enemy, they always loop downward, so I go back up to force them back up to my altitude, and then the cycle continues. What do you do in this situation? How do you properly utilize the “boom and zoom” tactic. It’s not working for me.
Yeah you're doing the right thing. Make sure you switch targets to the enemy with the highest enemy. If you're alone against multiple enemies, they can keep doing that while others climb away, and unless your aircraft significantly outperforms them it's very tough.
Do you see that overlay in-game?
Yup! I play in fullscreen window now.
I hate flying the P38s but that end was a damn great fight, you both flew well ,but you never cease to impress. Well done good sir.
I don't especially like flying them myself usually. Thanks!
Man its so frustrating see you set up pass after pass only to be denied by the P-38s absolutely trash maneuverability lol. You really got to be patient in this plane it seems, something I never got the hang of. I think XP-50 is a more fun plane for me, sort of like P-38 in performance but more maneuverable.
It's kind of weird, on one hand you can dogfight with 109s sometimes but when it really counts like in a stall climb situation you can never seem to pull the lead you need and the plane feels really slow to respond. Like at 10:26 you would have been able to get a snapshot in if you were in a plane that wasn't so stiff on the controls. I guess the L model might be better in that regard but then you lack the boosted power of the K. Maybe we need P-38M with L airframe and K performance...
Yeah, for that reason it's not my style of plane haha.
P38K with L handling would be great.
Can this tactic is used same for lower P38? I tried sometime E trap about ~4000m to BF, FW and Yak. They always climb extremely well and catch me. I heard P38 has 2 allisons and enough power .
For sure, but you need to be at 6km+ ideally, or else your enemies will still have good climb and it'll be much harder to pull off.
Fun Fact: I'm the guy that always catch fire when the enemy long shot.
I don't know if you will consider it funny, but I'm laughing to not cry...
I find it funny ;).
yeessss the LO and J get airspawn for some reason and can outclimb evrything but re2000s and maybe 5.3 109s
Every P38 has an airspawn now. With airspawn they'll reach a higher alt than most enemies when they meet.
@@AdamTheEnginerd Jesus I didn't know they all did, I though they were pretty damn good before
@@jakeb6703 They were meh before for the most part.
I'm slightly curious, and scared, of what you could do with the Spitfire Mk24-
I have been having quite a bit of fun with that thing. Even if it does face Jets and you religiously get targeted by fucking Horten's and 262s because you're flying God's Right Fist. Squad up with a smart P-51H and you'll have God's Left Fist as well.
From my experience anyway.
It's on my list! Yeah it faces jets most of the time unfortunately. In a max downtier though it's a beast.
@@AdamTheEnginerd
In a max downtier I have to confess my sins because it is cruel.
I fight 109 K4s in that thing. What are they meant to do? It's like seal clubbing but the seal is a baby and the club is a 152mm howitzer.
Aww, the Boomber Greg and his Sex Wife 2000, yes. I remember them, in the skies of Africa.
Bomber Greg lol.
Adam what you think about grinding the f4 phantoms is it worth it?
Nope.
I prefer the other overlay tho :(
Always magnificent vid Adam, im always impressed, im the guy u was talking about Italy with some time ago xd
Anyways im struggling to use the K4 now that that A2D-1 got to 7.0, axis at 5.7 can finally breath, but its really a challenge, but its an headon monster with those 20mm pods, really great hunter, but not really performant maneuverability talking, so always a challenge against Spitfires and, as the video speaks, P-38K.
Will u ever do a video about it, again? Or in case, can i ask u some advices abt it?..
This has much higher refresh rate and it's transparent!
Yeah K4 is on my list.
Could you do a video on the Chinese P-47D-28, ive gotten better at it, but im still struggling using against the Japanese
It's on my list!
hey adam can you give me the link of that flight data please
and is it a mod to install in WT
Not until the guy who made it says I can.
How to do that?
Great video! Would love to see some more mig 19s gameplay in the future.
Thanks!
That probably won't happen.
Could you play the f84? I would like some tactics simce there are no vids about this plane
It's on my list!
@@AdamTheEnginerd thanks dude
Two questions: 1. What is the Mec settings for the P-38s in general? 2. How often do you use mec when flying?
1. Description says the general MEC of the aircraft I'm flying in the video.
2. I use MEC on most planes.
@@AdamTheEnginerd Roger that, thank you!
I thought the 109 would pick up speed, come around, and shoot you after you basically had him!😂
When I ran out of fuel?
AdamTheEnginerd yes... thought he would pull up and away but I guess went down because he didn’t know about your fuel situation.
Can you play the F100? (im currently researching that jet and i want to see how it performs in battles)
Did a video on it a while ago, I doubt I'll make a video on top tier jets anytime soon.
Just skip the f100 and go for the f4c the f100 is in a bad spot at the moment
GG. Allied ground pounders uggh. Congrats on the new PC. Why only 30fps though?
I haven't seen even one video on YT that benefits from 60fps...
To compensate a bit for the stutteryness of this particular recording.
Hey Adam can you do a video on the BF109 K-4 again?
It's on my list!
I have used my P-38K for years and have mastered it. I can make some fucked up maneuvers (Even out turning LF mk 9 spitfires and Yak-3's. Now with that air spawn.... oh my... it already was climbing like the lf mk 9 anyways without it XD
Yeah airspawn wasn't necessary for this haha.
I’m having trouble with BnZing in the FW 190 Ds. I always seem to get caught in the enemy’s guns even with a big energy advantage
If you truly have a big energy advantage, break off a bit earlier and go vertical, and keep an eye on what the enemy does. If he pitches up to you, go even more vertical and start a spiral climb to dodge his shots until he stalls out.
AdamTheEnginerd Thank you so much! I always love watching your videos to learn more about how to git gud lmao
@@willfarkas2445 Haha my pleasure!
American planes and their players in a nutshell: bomber spam, ground pounding fighters, attackers who try to be fighters, “how tf can anyone play this it can’t even turn”, afk players, no one climbing, the player with 200 score complaining in chat after they die, and ah yes CANT FORGET THE GANG BANGS AT THE END OF THE MATCH AFTER TRYING TO CARRY WITH 5 KILLS AND COUNTING
German players: *Gung ho’s into entire allied team and somehow comes out with 3 kills an orange wing, and possibly an oil leak if lucky* 🤫😂
It's just Axis overwhelming the Allies with superior useful plane numbers.
I love playing the american bf 109 because my team always disappears and I can carry, while if i play on a german team it is way less tense even though i get a decent amount of kills
That is true.
At 6:00 all I can hear and picture is seagulls going " MINE MINE MINE" lol
Also, new flight data?
Haha indeed!
Yup, might switch to WTRTI though.
Why you only have 20-25 fps? Not very pleasant.
Says 100+FPS?
Does the P-38k get an airspawn now? It didn't last time I played.
Yeah all P38s get an airspawn now.
@@AdamTheEnginerd P-38K definitely didn't need it because it already climbed so well basically nothing could catch it. Particularly at higher altitudes where other initially good climbers like Spitfires and 109s have power drop off this thing just doesn't.
14:16 You just pulled off a robin olds!! In ww2, Robin Olds, a famous U.S. fighter pilot, killed a german Bf-109 after he accidentally shut off his engines. He managed to pull off the only glide kill in WW2. You've pretty much done the same except you ran out of fuel when you made the kill.
Haha indeed!
The very fact that you managed to dog fight with a bus is commendable. With 4 kills, that's a job well done..
Thanks!
Nice flying on your part as usual. The outcome of the team being annihilated in 7 minutes 80% of times is why I stopped playing this game, You are obviously showing that its possible to still squeeze impressive personal score but that is not why I que for team match in the first place, when You need to "work" for your slack every time it quickly becomes quite tedious, being as good as You are definitely slows down the boring factor by a lot ofc :P Also I love Your informative series, no more use of it for me if we speak of wt flight models but I still respect the amount of work You put into it.
Thanks!
Personally I haven't gotten bored precisely because carrying Allied teams is a challenge.
Hi. Thanks for your time and knowledge. Can it tell you how to set this information about flight data and engine 1 and 2, a
to display them in the game as you have them set up? Thanks in advance for your help. Greetings from a fan from Poland.
My pleasure!
I use a program which was made by someone for me. There are other ways to overlay the info though.
If you want, you should do another video on the F7F Tigercat. That plane has very quickly become one my my favorite planes. Second to the F8F Bearcat. Spaded, the Tigercat is nasty!
Eh perhaps.
Quite an amazing display of your skill. No wonder the p-38 isn't your style, there are objectively better fighters in the same BR range. Still, very enjoyable to watch you perform so well in it.
Thanks man!
I hate Germany at this br, they win most of the time with overpowered bf109. But Germany suffers at 6.7+ with their bad early jets against USA. Gajins balance
They win with their lower amount of useless planes (bombers and ground pounders).
Breathtaking fight! I love twin-engine planes so I really enjoyed this video.
Hey Acedam, Do you have a plan that flying some Swedish planes?
Thanks!
Hmm not really actually.
@@AdamTheEnginerd You should check out the j21 A1. It's low rank (only 3.0) and has engine overheat problems, but boy is it looks of fun.
You laugh at the bomber trying to get you, but the other day a Ju288 ripped of my rudder doing so. His teammate was very injured already and I could sit on his tail and eventually deal the killing blow, and sure, it was probably a lucky shot, but it could have been very bad for me.
Yeah miracles happen. But if the Ju288 had been a fighter, he would have easily killed me.
I think a good solution to the ridiculous allied ground pound spam at 4.0-5.7 would be to remove the ability to configure ur plane in the first few minutes of a battle and only do it either in the hangar or after about 5 muinites. That way u could classify all ground pounders who set bombs on in hangars as attacker class aircraft and control their numbers without hurting the team as much. U might still get some people who just wait on the runway but anything right now is better that spawning in to see two people on ur team without bombs or rockets. Anyone else got problems with this theory?
Then smart pilots will load ordnance and drop after takeoff to reduce the number of attackers on their team.
It says on the website that P-38 J is out of stock xD great vid tho, as always
For now ;).
Thanks!
Having 4 bombers every match is not enough, there'll aways be 5 people flying P-47s and P-51s with bombs and rockets
Yup, gotta be as useless as possible.
Damn dude, that was some rare footage of high altitude fight, nowdays i dont see mutch of it, looks like people dont climb anymore, especially if they got bad climb rate, or the fost of them instatly dive when an enemy is spoted low. Extremly intese fight tho, i bet it is rare even for you :)
Yeah it's rare, especially now with the 25 minute time limit.
Hey Adam, could you make a guide on how to use advanced controls in RB, i tried myself but its such i mess, i want to use my planes at 100% but theres so many key binds and things to understand... its a big mess
You mean Manual Engine Controls (MEC)? There are already tutorials on how to use it on TH-cam.
A bit late to the party on this one, still a great video I miss the Adam Warthunder days. Trying to become a P-38K god so this is a step in the right direction. Fantastic video, well done!
Haha thank you Oli!
This plane is too high when I encounter it as German planes now.
It 's a really hard target even with simple bnz and vertical.
Anyway, Nice video, great work
Thanks!
hey just wondering if i could make a request for the german mig 21 I enjoy your videos and the style they are and I would love to see you flying the German mig 21, keep up the good work
Unfortunately I'm avoiding top tier, not very fun and there are invisible missiles.
Thanks!
It's weird that the roll rate is so bad in the K. Did it not get the boosted ailerons that the L (and some J's) got in real life? IIRC, the prototype was based on an older model so maybe that's why in game?
Yeah based on older model.
The last fight was like an anime
Good video
Indeed! Thanks!
How do you side climb so effectively. I play on console and trying to WEP for as long as you do results in me not being able to WEP for another few seconds.
I usually don't sideclimb, I climb straight in. I use Manual Engine Controls (MEC) to be able to WEP for long periods of time on most aircraft.
Hey Adam! Make a vid about Swedish push-props, they are decent
learned a lot from your videos! ✨
They are on my list!
btw you can also set both IAS+TAS to be shown if you want (I was just wondering because you used the overlay to see TAS)
Yeah but I prefer only having IAS shown in the HUD so that I'm not distracted by another number, and I'll check the overlay for TAS when necessary.
I've always wanted to kill a P-38 but every time I get close another plane distracts me from my goal.
Haha rip.
I stopped playing this plane because whenever I try to bait em to climb or engage, they immediately head to deck :(
Yeah can't afford to chase diving enemies in this aircraft. Gotta be patient.
Shame you didn't take 30 mins of fuel, I always pick atleast 30 for this kind of situations.
I would have died if I had taken 30 min.
Could you play at somepoint one of the N1Ks again. I realy like those planes but i cant figure out how to use them.
N1K1 one day maybe.
I'm thinking to study aerospace engineering do you recommend it?
Also if you are working what kind of jobs I can work when I finish uni?
If you're interested in the topic yeah I recommend it. As an engineer there's a wide variety of jobs you can do. First and only job which I still currently have (contract ends on the 24th of April due to Coronavirus) is as an Engine Performance Analyst at Pratt & Whitney Canada where, as the job title implies, I analyse engine data and models.
@@AdamTheEnginerd wow that's cool. My dream job was becoming a pilot in air force but bcs of my eye problem I can't join the air force. So I thought I can build them. Thankfully I got the head and I love physics
@@thevenomguy1215 I'd definitely like to work on military projects myself haha.
@@AdamTheEnginerd yeah I would love to do those but first I need to be in 5000 out of 2.5milliyon people in nation wide exams. After that I plan the future
@@thevenomguy1215 What kind of eye problems?
Hey Adam! What does MER mean? I’ve seen it in many of your vids and I can’t figure it out.
Maneuvering Energy Retention. Essentially it's a measure of how much energy (speed) an aircraft loses when maneuvering. Different aircraft will lose speed at different rates depending on their power, weight, wing, geometry, etc. I did some tests and made a video explaining it if you're interested: th-cam.com/video/wLA8cspXbbE/w-d-xo.html
It was also in the card when I showed pros and cons.
If u don't have a 144Hz monitor try to use Vsync to lock fps in 60 or 75 fps (depending of your monitor). This feature will make the graphics a lot smother and give less stress to your vga and processor. No point in get a lot of fps that you monitor can't show and this option avoid tearing in image frames.
Yup been playing with Vsync shortly after I recorded this match.
@@AdamTheEnginerd i was experiencing a problem related to Discord. My fps was dropping from 180 to 30! Resolution: disable in game overlay and everything get back to normal. This is a tip for who r facing the same issue.
Interesting, I did disable overlay at the same time as Vsync. I assumed it was Vsync that made the difference.
To start positive.... that dogfight was something else man. Great performance by YOU. But !!! Full downtier was so much in your favor. I think all of them were Trops and that G6. You can clearly see how stupidly OP and easy are german planes. You had almost non fuel vs G6 with unexperienced player (i checked his stats). The difference between him and you is so big but he does not have any trouble of keeping up with you in 4.7 plane. Germans are really weirdly OP. And he tanked shots exc.... Thanks for video.
Thanks! Indeed it was a full downtier, but it was also many against me as my team crumbled. I think half were G6.
My pleasure!
Yeah, I didnt want to say that you had it easy because of downtier. I wanted to say how hard it is even in downtier. Almost every decision you made was great. Really tough to fight germans alone....
Hi Adam. Could you tell about japanese Ki-84 from 5.3 up to 6.3 performance? Idk why, but all battles are filled with 109K, they have excellent climb, competitive speed and vertical maneuvering. What to do with em?
Same performance, good turn and climb with average speed.
Depends what you're in. A lot of Allied planes can beat a K4 in a maneuvering fight.
Thanks, ill try P-59.
I was waiting for this. Saw you in game
Who were you?
AdamTheEnginerd it wasn’t this game but you were playing this plane
@@lilcommandergaming8573 Ahh I see.
Great fights! P38 armament seems to be crap. I never flew the p38k, and I don’t like p38s in general, because when you need to fight at low altitude you are outperformed by everyone.
At 11:12 if the g6 had used 70% prop pitch he could have gotten a shot. He did not watch your Bf109 tricks video :)
Thanks!
Haha it might have given him a snapshot, but no more than that.
AdamTheEnginerd yep, but with the 4.3 p38 (the only one that i spaded my no.1 death reasons were 109s g2 who got the room for a little shot.... that destroys my elevator
Holy shit the craziest lightning! How did you get it? Also what do you think about its odd rip speed?
I asked Gaijin for it ;).
What do you mean odd rip speed?
Damn bro, you are one hell of a pilot, shame you picked allies they are notorious for being trash tier teams.
Thanks!
I pick Allies precisely for the challenge!
I am not good as like you, but P-38 showed me that "this is Boom & Zoom." It literally showed what BnZ is.
Love this plane
Heavy fighters aren't my style.
@@AdamTheEnginerd Yeah, maybe because of its role that supporting teammate in 1vs1 or getting bombers. Because of that role of heavy fighter, I think Axis heavy fighters are way useful than Allies heavy fighters.
Recommend you to play J5N1, this guy solves dilemma of Japanese players by getting low-alt bombers and attackers easily
Be cool to see the MB 175t. pretty good aircraft for dogfighting despite the fact it's a bomber
I doubt I'll fly it haha.
How do you get that overlay and where do you download it from? (The engine information near the default info)
Mine is still private. Alternatively, check out this one: forum.warthunder.ru/index.php?/topic/279736-wtrti-otobrazhenie-informatsii-o-samolete-cherez-rtss/
Hey Adam
I havd a reqest
I just unloked the do 335 A 0
Can you make a video on it?
It's on my list!
That 2km shot from the bomber would have sniped my pilot. It happens all the time 😂
Nahh haha.
That really didn't look like 150fps. Looked like my usual 40
It was a recording issue yeah.
Hey man how to enable flight data and engine data in-game? Is that some sort of 3rd party program?
This is what I'll be using in the future: forum.warthunder.ru/index.php?/topic/279736-wtrti-otobrazhenie-informatsii-o-samolete-cherez-rtss/
I'm pretty sure all p38s have feathering control. Just a heads up.
I think so too.
Maybe you should play the A7M2 reppu
you also get more useful teammates when versing Merica or Russian
Carrying is what I find fun in WT.
@@AdamTheEnginerd well yeah but I ain't as good as you so I need teammates to bait for me or I need to bait for teammates to win
Question, where did you get Flight Data, Engine 1 and Engine 2 schedule?
I use this now:
Overlay: forum.warthunder.com/index.php?/topic/483838-warthunder-real-time-information/
Hold up, why don't I see the P-38K in the tree? All I see is the E, G-1, J-15, and L-5-LO.
I don't see it as a premium either. What am I missing? I haven't played the P-38 in a looong time and wanted to play it. But, I wanted to use this model specifically.
Yeah it's there, at 5.3 tier 4 premium.
@@AdamTheEnginerd the only premium p38 it shows me is bongs p38J-15 and that's 4.3 :I
Hmm then maybe P38K truly is hidden.
@@AdamTheEnginerd the snails biggest mystery.
Bröther, give me Lööps
B0ss ill do anything for some bauxite b0ss
I agrëë!
What is it with the rapper accent in WT ‘enemy attacking our base, we must stop them (homies!)’. Is there a ref for the overlay? I still use Voidmei, which I can use as I have dual monitors, but I’d like something on my main screen.
You can check out WTRTI, it's not what Adam uses but similar. th-cam.com/video/cUhDFoE6iS8/w-d-xo.html
WTRTI does look good indeed, but it's not what I used.
I can't see the data without the black background >:,v (says the guy watching the video in his phone instead of his Computer)
About the P-38K... is 2 P-51D-30 engines in a lightweight Heavy fighter but turbosupercharged... Thats too much engine power LOL 😳
And for the model... They have global delivery?
Watch on both ;). If it's bigger would it help? On your phone anyway you've got other things to look at I assume.
Yup massive amounts of power and quite good propeller efficiency.
Yeah global delivery.
Indeed...
Imagine it with the Control surfaces mod and speed breaks of the L model
Nice :D
@@terrado6746 Would be quite nice yeah.
do you get stuttering at high fps? i used to get 100+ fps. now 60 but really smooth, it's weird
Yeah, this is my first recorded game on new PC, was still tweaking settings.
@@AdamTheEnginerd niceee man, im guessing AMD gpu?
You remained useful till the very end...GG
No fuel kill is always useful.
@@AdamTheEnginerd Lolz, truth...
Hi can I know how do you get the flight data informations please?
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.
I use a program to overlay the information over the game.
I don't understand why people still fly allied bombers when German ones are better
I C O N I C.
Adam you should take out the seafire FR 47, I hear it’s very good at extreme altitudes, but nonetheless it’s a difficult plane to fly, would like to see you have a go at it
It's on my list!
AdamTheEnginerd looking forward to it, I outran a p51D-30 at 10k to kill a space climbing ju288, the plane turned into a different animal once I got up there
