Slight hiatus due to my firstborn Sofia entering the world two months ago, but I'll do my best to upload more vids from time to time!

Congratulations Freycinet!!!! Wish you and her all the best!

Another excellent video, Frey!

You really capture the feeling of "being there", and your annotations are a big help. This vid certainly demonstrates the huge value of Teamspeak in locating the action quickly, not to mention covering each other's six in furballs.

My online vids are useless. Using TrackIR my head movements are guaranteed to render any viewer sea sick within 30 seconds --- or so my wife has told me! LOL

You do know there is a movie and video area?

Frey...

Think of propeller pitch as speeds on a bike...when you climb steeply...fine pitch (high RPM) is more efficient. When you cruise horizontally, coarse pitch (low RPM) will give you more speed, just like on a bike.

Thanks for the input. Yup, I know about prop pitch (as you can see in my Spit tutorial vid), but I am probably not applying it perfectly.

In this mission I kept fine pitch all the way through. For take-off and climb-out, obviously. Then I did an Immelmann, where I think it was good to stay in fine too. You could then say that I should have gone into coarse when I tail the baddie, but I was actually quite happy with my closure rate. For the dogfighting I think fine pitch was appropriate again. I definitely should have gone into coarse when I high-tailed it back to the aerodrome, but somehow forgot about it. Honestly I also think it wouldn't have earned me many seconds. For landing I think fine pitch is best, if you need to gun the throttle and do a go-around.

I guess what I am saying in so many words is that I don't really see where in this mission I really really unquestionably ought to have gone into coarse pitch... If you see it otherwise can you tell me where?

Interesting topic, and I obviously could handle pitch better.

Yeah, I think there is just a matter of personal style I guess

Y'know, although Frey seems a bit overly obsessive with getting his view-counts/channel views on Youtube and his website, this topic is a welcome break from the current of deluge of nothing.
