I got pretty good at DCS, if I do say so, myself haha. Had around 5500 hours in it (loser, I know, but it became addicting). I got to fly in some formations. It's definitely one of the hardest things to do in that. However, I learned that if everyone is good, all you have to do is match the guy in front of you. Easier said than done but with enough practice, anyone can do anything. It was one of the most rewarding feelings in-game that you could have lol.
I've done a little formation flying in VTOL VR, and I must say it's pretty hard. For me, it's easy enough to follow the lead target, but matching speed is where things fall apart.
That's what life is all about It ain't about stats, points or being number one all the time Nope😊 It's about being human with humans Until we gotta get all serious rrrrrrrrh Lol❤
this is what people get wrong about formation flying, minimse communications and concentrate on flying your plane. All it takes is replicating lead's maneuvers
Formation flying is awesome. I was in the Swiss jet Team for years when they were still on MSFSX. It was so laggy back then. DCS is a dream for this kind of stuff. They still fly relentlessly with the FA-18. I am watchign their performance from time to time on Dominic Kellers channel.

Just so everyone is aware the rear jet is being multiboxed. That’s why the up and down movements are perfectly synced. If you don’t believe me than you’ve never seen it before or are completely naive.
I work right near a blue angles training facility, it’s unreal seeing them practice irl, the turns, and maneuvers they pull on a dime is truly remarkable
start turning starboard, increase climb rate to .... heading... ......ok, begin, gentle roll to the left in 1, 2, 3, now.... ....wow this would have been cool to be involved in

Awesome precision. Is there a proper way to setup your joystick? I tried getting a logitech force 3d pro thinking it'll be better for space sims since it has no deadzone (I got a G20 wheel earlier and the zero deadzone helped a lot with precision driving), but when i tried flying with the stick i still kept overshooting and i can't hit anything with the gun. Does having the rudders on your feet instead of the stick twist make a difference?
What ever u comfortable with is my advice. a Stick with an extension works better for precision, but that is also debatable. In the end of the day, practice, practice, practice
Sounds like you're toking a pipe or something at 1:40 understand why you completely forgot what you were doing hahaha..but yeah I'd probably park my chopper to watch this too.. edit: i can barely get the F-16 to fly in formation with a tanker yet.
tried this onece with two randos, after the first turn they led i overshot and couldnt get back in formation again (after over and undershooting every time i tried) gave up after 5 tries and tried to remember where i was going
i shit u not, just as i closed this tab, a RAAF Hornet flew past my window! (i live on the WA coast - usually it's trainers but today, a treat and weeeeeird timing! esp since it's already afternoon).... ...guess i shouldn't be surprised, considering it's all just a bigger simulation, right? Hahahaha 🤣 OK, out for real now. Enjoy all the engagement comments ahahah Ciao! 👋
I think it is only 2 Pilots because the plane in the front and the back are clearly locked the one on the out side is the only plane flying in formation.
@@panthera1536 the other 2 planes look normal real players you do know you can dupe the flight so you can build up a scene.... one guy can fly all places and record the flight tracks and stack them.
Looks that way because the camera is locked on the middle guy, so all his moves make the other two appear in perfect unison. Definitely some wiggle between front and back though.
Damn coooool! You know who these guys are? Like real military or something? 😳 Also, can the Gripen air-refuel, or what is that thing in the front right? I mean, Sweden don't have capability for air-refueling, no?
Kids these days... would rather lock themselves in a room and fly in an online game than go out to the nearest airfield and fly in formation...geez what a generation
Sadly, humans wont be flying in person like this in a few generations. FPV and AI looks like the future of combat. The same way racing drone pilots are incredible at flying in Battlefield 4 the inverse is also true.
One server lag spike and its over
very true
XD
Gladly its a rare occurrence!
... inexperienced F16's on the other hand... lookout!
Or a Sneeze...
just like in real life
Those guys are good, it's hard to fly that way in tight formation.
I agree- they showcase precision and dedication
Captain Obvious, reporting for duty.
Thank God you cleared that up for us

It ain't about stats, points or being number one all the time
Nope😊
It's about being human with humans
Until we gotta get all serious rrrrrrrrh
Lol❤
JFC that's a lot of skill there. I can't stay in formation in the training missions for more than a few seconds.... This is crazy good.
it takes tons of communication to pull something like this off
for sure
@@PereFPS
It only takes a finger, a thumb, and a wrist to pull me off
No it doesn't
no its not xD you can do it with 0 communication, go join 4ya aerobatics and try

I walk a lonely road...🐸
The only road that i have ever known
Are there jets that fly backwards already?
My shadow the only one that walks beside me.
i feel like the m2k right behind the lead is somehow multiboxed. line is so perfect and consistent. but very impressive and cool!
What's m2k and being "multiboxed" ? 👀

So I recorder this footage from the outside jets external view. So the multibox might be dysync from that pilots point of view.
@@ifrxenvoy124 thank you ☺️
Most people doesn't understand the amount of skills this takes!

didnt know superman does pro bono camera work. cool
lol it's a freakin GAME/sim!! ! *WHY are my **_guts churning_* when they do those steep, fast dives right down to 1000ft in a big loop!?!!?!
😆
t'wasn't until watching for about 8 mins+ that i truly realised the extent of how good those 3 were
It's as impressive IRL than online.
Pilots or gamers, they are awesome for the dedication they have toward what they do.
damn i dont think ive cringed this hard this year yet
gamers are in absolutely no way comparable to pilots

RIGHT!!!?!
Hey bro watch your jet !
That was me and my bro and nephew. They're 42 and 8. I'm 50. We are getting into DCS. :P
The dude in the back eating turbulence like it's air!
My guess it's Durp, GED, Reb or Les. I join these guys when I get a chance. Rare to find good formation pilots to fly with on the 4YA servers.
I was wrong... GED, Tenet, burner and someone else.
@@PaperPilotJack yes these 3 names were in those jets.
maybe they are one poilot.. controlling 3 planes with one joystick

"Mission Accomplie ⚜"
They were probably only getting started.
Kudos too you for recording this and sharing it. This made me fall in love with DCS all over again. This is the coolest thing i've seen on this game!
Glad to hear. Join the guys on 4yA acrobatics server EU, Enjoy
@@panthera1536 Thanks!

This is extremely hard to do, hat off to these guys.
at the end is super sick when one pulled off and perfectly rejoined

That 4th pilot couldn't hack it with them boys and peaced out 🤞😂
It's hard enough maintaining contact with the tanker for 3 minutes, these guys can stay focused for half an hour..
At 1:35 - If you listen real close, the engines almost sound like they're vaping. 😆
sorry for that :D
I wish u could have recorded their voice chat!
When your certain the enemy team is all on the other side of the map and you check your six 😢😂

Thanks, Happy days, I shared the sentiment and subbed
Looks like harrier display team in 4ya, they fly there all the time. They fly shows on VIAF.
Something seems a little to good between the lead and the aft pilot. Their sync seems locked, like its some kind of bot.
I shot most of the footage from the right side pilots view. Think it is desync from his side maybe
lovely stuff

all four had player names

@@panthera1536no sht . 2 accounts both on same PC using software similar to Warcraft multi boxing been around for a decade at least
If you look closer, the guy in the back he is BARELY moving a second later than lead. He is just that on ball watching
Looks that way because the camera is locked on the middle guy, so all his moves make the other two appear in perfect unison. Definitely some wiggle between front and back though.
Pretty sure J.P. Ferre made a movie with them

no

all the way
At 7:46 mirage 1 knock it off, mirage 2 knock it off.... etc...etc..
I could do this no problem.
As lead.
Why is there a silly little heli landed on that big plane?
you saw nothing :D
