If you're flying a Fw190 and have a Yak-3 on your tail, the getaway technique can be summed up in one word, dive. The light weight that gives the Yak-3 its agility and lets it get reasonable performance out of a 1,290hp engine means it won't have a hope in hell of catching a diving 190, and if you roll around a bit while diving you should be able to get clear with no problems.
Keep the speed up too, a Fw190D-9 can out turn a Yak-3 at any speed above 300mph.
