It can't dive well enough, and it is slower at high altitude than a Fw 190. Which means if you meet a Fw and you have the altitude advantage, it enters a shallow dive and you can't follow. Essentially, it is safe. On the other hand, if you get caught at a disadvantage, you cannot run away, you'll have to fight it out. And this means some low speed turning, as at high speed, you cannot outmanoeuvre a Fw. And survival at low speed turns is pretty much depending on the skills of your opponent, and luck to some extent. There's no way skillful turning will save you every time.
