Learning to fly

Mess Room
1

For some reason (can’t think why) I want to try flying (properly) in enlisted, I’ve only flown once in a real match about two years ago any advice would be appreciated because I’d prefer not to be totally hopeless. I’ve flown with a joystick in other games, but never had any luck setting up a joystick with enlisted so guess I’ll live with what we have (I’ve been practicing a bit on the range getting better). Any pointers would help I’ve watched tutorials by Para and Quadro a while ago so I know a little but I feel like I have a lot to learn, thanks.

while i am not some expert pilot here is my advice:

  1. spam V around general area where you think tanks could be when approaching cap (you can mark tanks from ~2500m).
  2. practice dive bombing. different planes can have different timings on release and different bombs require various amount of accuracy.
  3. learn maps and usual spots where enemy builds rally points, then rocket/bomb them.
  4. C(free look) is your friend when dogfighting. try to have eyes on enemy at all times cause it is easy to lose them

Thanks that’s helpful. Do you know how to make the mouse pointer aim (using mouse to control/steer the plane) enabled by default rather than toggled by a key? if not no worries its just a little annoying.

I played a couple years before I ever jumped into a plane. After a little practice it gets easy, and it’s fun if you get a match that you can get more then a pass or two before you get shot down. :rofl:

Use flaps

Really those things are really OP sometimes you can even beat planes better than yours by using em
