I often forget how well P47's dogfight, then I see this. Absolutely good rudder work stay above or under the nose of the enemy when scissor fighting or rolling with them.
Love seeing a good Jug pilot, great job! Oddly enough, when I flew the Jug in IL-2 (BoS), the Jug feels sluggish and underpowered. Bleeds energy very easily. Whereas in DCS it looks great. Your energy didn't seem to fall off as drastically as it does in IL2.
@@SukhoiGC Glad you enjoyed it! 👍. I have another dora vid in the works. I plan on upgrading my setup with a proper hotas / Stick / computer in the future. On'ce I upgrade I'll be more active flying DCS hopefully with smoother gameplay and making more videos. I haven't messed around in Il2 as of lately so I can't say if they tweaked the Jug from the last time I flew it.
~S~ SALUTE This some of the best Jug pilotage I've ever seen. Absolutely outstanding. I am fascinated with this big girl and have been for over 2 years now since I first stepped into DCS and immediately into the cockpit of a Republic P-47D. I can hold my own in a dogfight but what you have just shown me reveals a higher level of flying a Thunderbolt. Come find me next time you want to instruct in the Jug. My DCS callsign is [WP] Bishop and I'm usually found in Wolf Pack US 02 Normandy -_- Dynamic Base Cap _-_ but Ill fly anywhere you are training sim pilots in a P-47.
I was riding BF109,P-51 and recently started riding P-47, but it's too hard. Engine control is too complicated, the yaw axis is too slippery, and the speed drops too fast If you look at this video, the P-47 looks like the strongest DCS warbirds. It's amazing
Engine management isn't any harder in Jug than other WW2 fighters, I think that's just a myth people keep repeating and then they believe it. You can interconnect everything and focus on fighting and flying 99% of the time. Only for start up and extreme high altitude flying you need to disconnect the boost lever.
I've been driving it for a year or so, and it's not that difficult to control the engine, but the high weight makes me greedy for HIGH rpm and manifold pressure. XD
I’m sure this is only me. But when I fly the 47 the rudder literally just falls off mid flight and I have no idea why or how to stop it. I’m not even doing high speed turns or anything. Any advice?
@@invisawop update. Turns out it might be an issue with not closing the cowl flaps and the plane having violent vibrations when picking up speed as a result. Apparently that causes the rudder to just break apart.

Long live to the Jug!

Thanks! I too felt the same about the Jug in IL2 last time I flew it. I'm not sure why.
@@invisawop Do you plan on being more frequent with your uploads? Your dora vid was 🔥. Lastly, how's the Jug in IL2 now? Thanks.

@@invisawop Looking forward to it man, even if you do this in your spare time. You are very good. Keep it up 🤙🏾
with just a little bit of flaps the Jug will turn with about anything outside of a spit or zero.
That burst at 2:12 was a mother blank!
you are unreal in that p47. wow!

How much fuel do you set?
@@래트 Depends on what i'm trying to do. Usually around 40-50% fuel since in the MM servers you don't need to fly very far.

Those 109s look like they have the energy to murder you two times over yet they keep turning with you lol
Shes a big bird haha

I can't say lol, I never had that happen. that's crazy
@@invisawop lol its happened every time i fly it and i genuinly have no idea whats goin on. so lost lmfao.

@@general11871 glad you figured it out! Haha
Go XRP (is that an XRP logo?)
XRP army 👍
What so you set your flaps to when fighting?
Hey, Usually I go about 10 percent. Based off feel
lol.. the guy shoots a white flair and lowers gear. clear sign of surrender and you keep shooting him..
SWEET...! 😊
