Basic and Combat Tutorials for GB Aircraft - Update: How to Bf 109 G-14 (26.01.2021)

[FTC_DerSheriff]

Hi ho,
pretty sure a few of you will already know my channel and the videos I am about to post. But I want to have a central place on the official forums where I want to place my tutorials!

But first let me introduce myself. I am "DerSheriff". I am playing "air combat stuff" for sometime. For about a year or so I upload up air combat tutorials for different aircraft to Youtube.

Up until this point for the Fw 190 A-3, The Mig-3, the Bf 109 F-4 and the Yak-1. I did one "Model change notification" for the Fw 190 A-5 as well. Furthermore I did some quick and dirty tutorials here and there. For example emergency prodecures for the 109 or another one video on navigation.
I plan to create more of those in the future.

If you have any questions about the videos or what ever you can join my discord server or ask them here of course:

Without further ado:
Here is the channel:

Here are the playlists:

I will update this thread as new videos will come in.


Cheers

Nice work! Thank you, Sheriff. Maybe you could have included a few words on the Funkpeiltochterkompass when introducing the instruments. Think of all those poor fighter pilots that will get lost in TAW, because you can't tell them the vector home.

Thank you, I explained that thing a few times in the past and I didn't want to bore out my subs in watching that stuff all over again.
But noted. Maybe I have to do that since I can't expect the average viewer to know.

Added new tutorial: La-5

 

[Trooper117]

Good stuff 

[SCG_Fenris_Wolf]

Hervorragend, see you on taw today! 

 

I have recently started watching some YouTube videos as well, and DerSheriff's are among the best quality videos imo. 

[VesseL]

Thanks! I liked that LA-5 video. Will check your channel too.

Added the Combat Part of the La-5 Tutorial

Nice video @DerSheriff, good tip with 2800 RPM, I'd like to add that it is not wise to use it for more than 2 minutes and 30 seconds, after that the engine has almost 100% chance to self destruct. About the E retention, are you sure? To me it seems that G2 has better E retention than F4. Especially when performing chandelles, rope-a-dopes and spiral climbs.

[FTC_DerSheriff]

"energy retention in turns" And only there the G-2 is worse. 

And the F-4 is better in spiral climbs, rope a dopes etc since you can go higher throttle and you can increase the climb rate much more.

[=EXPEND=Tripwire]

Agree with Sheriff there,  the 1.42 ATA really helps for moves like the rope a dope. Getting that last bit of performance, and the nose on target if there isn't much room for error is less difficult.

How about G-14 mate?

will do when more or all competitors are there!

You can see around the arc behind seat in the Airacobra. You need to move forward/backward and peek behind in "X" manner. The mirror is very helpful when used in similar way. Also, you may (this ruins immersion for me so I rarely do) set in Settings->Graphics->Mirrors to "Simple".

I think that I was in the La5 video where you were being chased by multiple 190s, I was the 190 with a leak.

 

 

[Luger1969]

Hi Sheriff. Really like this MCN with comparisons and analysis at the end. Great stuff.

[ITAF_Rani]

Hi Sheriff like your vodeos.

Could make one for 109 G6?

Many thanks

[Luckyshot1966]

Great Videos & You Tube Channel. Leaning the YAK 1 now. Just recently got BOS mostly because of what I saw on your channel. Thanks

[=RS=Stix_09]

Or la5fn, whats best way to save gas (no mixture control on la5fn). She very thirsty.

[FTC_DerSheriff]

Throttle reduction is the best way to consume less fuel in the FN.

[BMA_FlyingShark]

Thank you for these great tutorials.

If I can make a request via this way, maybe make us a "How to..." for the BF109 F2 one day?

 

Have a nice day.

Whenever you want to.

Thank you for the reply.

[BMA_FlyingShark]

another very interesting series of yours.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like to see some little extra about fighting Russian planes like you mention at the end of part 3.

 

Have a nice day.

 

[JG_deserteagle540]

@ACG_DerSherrif,

 

Very good stuff! Thank you very much for those informative videos.

 

How about a Fw190Dora video ?

[Dragon1-1]

I love those tutorials. Far more informative than most, they really helped me get a leg up in those aircraft. One thing I'd appreciate a lot would be more "comparison" videos, shorter overviews of a larger number of planes. The ones for BoBP were awesome. It doesn't even have to be on video, in fact I'd love to see that information in a written guide someday.
