I find that forcing the fight up instead of down works sometimes, and always use rudder and aileron together, it will help the roll a lot. It is one of the fastest 1941 aircraft in the game at high altitudes, faster than a 109F. I tend to disengage if the opponent goes down low, cuz you will have a tough time.

Must have been a real nightmare when MiG's were forced down low on tactical missions which is what the VVS was doing quite often. Indeed I've seen the MiG-3 in even the 1940 model act like a sort of hotrod as it can overtake many earlier types but it certainly has no ability to turn with them. It makes the FW190 look like a turn fighter sometimes
