ill give you a for instance
if your flying a spitfire
it has quite alot of engine torque
trim in some rudder and it helps counteract it though you still need to do some manual input to fully stabilise
also just fly what feels right to you
push it till it stalls
workout the limits over time
always have a good leadtime on your shots
being close to the enemy helps as you dont need to fire so far infront to shoot em down
short bursts!
if your not getting hits aim further in front
love your cannons they are your friend
get a stick with rudder control
have fun
