Cool thing to do in a LaGG

[HagarTheHorrible]

Maybe even a 109, haven't tried.

 

Would post a trk file video if I could, or knew how.  Basically start your LaGG as normal, put your RPM lever fully forward, as per usual, then deflect the elevator fully down, now increase engine speed and hold the aircraft on the brakes.  The tail will lift until you're level, or more, with the horizon.  Now, still with brakes on, give it full rudder, either left or right, and pirouette on the spot and do some full circles.   Good fun to try and do it in as controlled fashion as possible without bending the prop.

 

Sorry if this is old news, I just quite enjoyed doing it so I thought I would pass it along.

Also hang you head out  of  the window while you're doing it, at night .

A question: does any prop bend in the game?

A question: does any prop bend in the game?

Not yet. But it will be in there. In ROF the devs modeled the wooden props of wwI planes snapping off mid prop if you tapped in on the ground or caught another a/c with it. Im sure the new effects wont be any less spectacular.
