Molto bene e bello: complimenti 🎈 . Sei un grande 👍🏿. Grazie 🙏.

Nice one Sheriff! Especially regarding your investigation of emergency power. I always wondered and now have the answer. One Horrido for you sir!

Realy good work sheriff!! this video cleared up some difficulties I've been having with this wonderful aircraft. Thanks again and keep up the good work.

thx for this awesome video! I really can't wait for more ! :)) Just started with IL 2 today so i would be really happy to see some more planes! :D

Thanks for the detailed information. I will apply your teachings to improve my Focke-Wulf 190-A3 experience.

This was great Sheriff! I don't play IL-2 but this was still great to watch. I love that bird.

This video was absolutely fascinating! I'd be really interesting to see your evaluation of the newer 190s in Kuban and Bodenplatte

Thanks Sheriff for making this video! After watching it yesterday I went on an Il-2 server today and got in my first sortie an Il-2 and in my second one a Spitfire and P-38. That video really helped me in that beautiful bird! Have a nice day/night!

A veeery useful tutorial mate, thanks a lot! You made my FW's experience less a nightmare, but still a really hard plane to master

Send a iron cross via carrier pigeon got me laughing! Maybe a short piece on how to counter the aircraft of you are making this a series? I know it is implied in the video when talking about the disadvantages but a clear guide may help.

great tutorial! Especially locking the tail wheel is super cool tip, because i've spinned after every landing... Thanks!

Just took the A3 into my first ever sortie on WOL. Got 4 kills, so overall i'm pretty happy with it and thanks for this vid it helped a lot. :)

Super informative video. Great job Sheriff.

Very nice tutorial, thanks! Looking forward to this new series. Also, bonus points for the title, got a chuckle (or two) out of it. :D

A little detail, about the only hydraulics on the FW 190 was the mechanical computer for the engine/supercharger/propeller mechanism. The main gear was driven by an electric motors with a cable attached to the main gear retracting or extending the tail wheel, the flaps also were electric. The engineering on the FW 190 was brilliant.👍

Thank you very much for the very nice overview of the A3

Just got into flying again..... This was very helpful !!!! ..... I practically dug a hole on take-offs trying to get to the runway. Still a work in progress.... Thx for the videos.

Sheriff - this video was amazing. You deserve way more views for your videos and knowledge. Thank you so much for posting.

Amazing guide, keep up the good work.

Thanks - tips on taxi particularly helpful. Was finding it something of a ground loop queen although not so hard to take off once on the runway.

Thanks Sheriff. Great video and looking forward to more in this series. - Hopefully the basic game planes like 109F-4, Yak, LA-5.

Appreciate your content. Just re entering il2 and have been out since 1946 was modern. Thx for the tutorials.

An excellent video and I must say that your labels for each of the instruments was very helpful. The way you simply labeled them and how they moved/hovered at the spot was very interesting.

Cost me one additional day to figure out how that works :D

Well made. Thank you for the information Sheriff.

Excellent tutorial! I will add that I stalled this plane repeatedly by being a bit too aggressive with the controls. I had to tweak my joystick settings to moderate the inputs, and did this several times until I could fly the plane with confidence. I have to say that I appreciate your testing of the high power modes and their duration plus replenishment times. The plane is still a bit tricky, as you imply, and smooth inputs are the order of the day. Now I feel as if I need to spend a bit more time in the sim. :)

Wow, excellent job on this. SO on the point and understandable. This will be my go to for tutorials now as god knows I need the help! lol

Hi Sheriff, I really appreciated this video expecially the engine's modes and your stop watch timing that really changed my mind about this plane and its limits. Also is always a pleasure to fly with you on Random Expert. I'm writing here to ask you a video about a no used on multiplayer plane: the macchi 202. Thank you for you vids!

Great Tutorial Sheriff, really enjoyed it! It covers a ton of knowledge and definitely will help others to fly the 190 better. It indeed was a lot of work to get all the examples recorded. Nice! However, I noticed something you can still improve. At 20:40 you dive away and get very fast. To keep your speed up even better, you should use your rudder to bring that little ball (slip indicator) back in the middle. When the 190 (and every other plane) gets fast, you notice, that the ball wandering a lot to the left side, letting you know the plane is flying uncoordinated. That causes a lot of drag. Bringing it back to the middle reduces drag and, especially in the 190, lets you fly even longer fast.

These videos remain invaluable! I keep returning to them every time I pick up the simulator again after some time away!

I really enjoyed this video, plus your tips have improved my 190 flying considerably.

I got IL2 and the 190 a month ago havent tried it yet. thanks for the vid

I am an absolute noob who just arrived here from the War Thunder. I am grateful for this life saver tutorials! I find it funny when people told me how difficult and hard to take off or landing with the ME 262 what is the main reason I bought the game and still the only aircraft I can fly decently good enough. No difficulty what so ever If you love to do what you do and you are in love with a plane. This is the key, isn't it? I literally laughing about any complaints about the FW series! Even I found them the easiest props to fly as an absolute beginner! The most valuable part of this video was the taxing and tailwheel locking mechanism description. You helped me out with this tutorial. Many thanks! Quality content and true value!

I've waited for this video for so long! :D

It was this video that got me into this simulator. Thank you

an iron cross via carrier pigeon...sounds about right :D

Extremely helpful, thanks!

Ist schon erstaunlich wie viel Ahnung du von der Materie hast, sehr gutes und informatives video, danke fürs teilen. :-)

Your videos are great. I've been playing on easy mode campaign, but i might practice some engine management and spotting on hard. Discord gaming soon

Great tutorial! Very well done! Informative and entertaining at the same time. And I don't even own the game ^^

Is a great help for me as a very green Pilot. Thanks a lot :)

Joining your discord and YES i did read the bit about your stick and IR5 ;)

@Sheriff's Sim Shack Can we see a tutorial of the La-5? I have limited experience with VVS aircraft and I would like to see the proper assignment of keys for engine management and overall flight and fighting characteristics of this plane. This video was excellent! Thank you for all the entertainment you share with with us Sheriff!

wow that's the first time a youtuber has responded to my comment, thank you

Very good idea ! Thanks for the vid :)

New to the game i have issues with the fw 190 on take off ans freaking stalling all the time. Thnk's for the video i go back to training

Good job, the bf 190 is a great beautiful plane ...all them. I got a tamiya 1:48 , 190 A8/R2( rustzats) and I do love it, the A4 is another one who got me crazy, dora one is too way beautiful plane as well. Cheers mate. Iron Cross for you.

Magic escape manouever in the 190 I used back in the Forgotten Battle days (not flown since then): Dive vertically towards the ground and just short of reaching the point of no return, roll 180 degrees and exit the dive in the opposite direction. The enemy can neither roll as fast or exit the dive as hard because they do not have the same high speed manouevrability and so they will either crash into the ground or have to abort and pull up flying in the opposite direction to you giving you separation and you are outta there.

handling of the a3 is going to become easier with the release of the Kuban front. They're increasing the lift coefficient from 1.12 something to 1.3-1.4. Would love to see how the bird flies with a tighter turn time.

Flies better but doesn't change the fighting style much

Excellent!! Do the 109....I am having trouble (game wide) with the zoom sight...the proposing is terrible, and small input to adjust fire sends any aircraft into this bobbing that get out of control real quick. Frustrating..... I found out the hard way on that tailwheel lock...

Awesome tips! What configuration do you usually use for this plane?

Thanks

Have just bought IL-2 BoS (& Kuban). Having flown both the Bf 109 F-4 & the Fw 190 A3, I vastly prefer the 190... Speed, quick responses and...the firepower! I know I need to get better with the 109 and gunnery but the Fw 190 is so forgiving of snap shots. I can hammer an enemy down, whereas it feels like poking with a pencil with the single 20mm in the 109! :)

Thanks for this video, Sheriff! I love the FW-190, and this really helped me to understand the mistakes I was making that reduced my effectiveness. I was also wondering if you had any tips on spotting enemy aircraft that are flying lower while I'm at altitude. I find it a bit difficult to see contacts against the ground, but it's a lot easier (and more dangerous) to see contacts against the horizon while flying low. How do you spot aircraft flying lower than you while at 4000m?

Sheriff's Sim Shack It is just easier without it as planes don't blend with the background at all. Game looks shit though if you don't use some third party AA setting on top of it, especially your own cockpit with all these jagged lines and stuff. Nothing looks smooth, so it can be visually unsettling which is why you need some really slight small extra settings of additional FXAA or SMAA and that at least makes your own cockpit look much better, but since it is really small filter it doesn't affect your contacts and they still clearly pop out from the background. Technically, there are more things you can do to make really distant contacts be super visible even more but that depends heavily on the game itself as each game has a different setup to render distant contacts, but this AA disable seems to work in every combat sim/flight sim I have ever played, which is why I tend to consider it one of these golden rules of combat sims.

I tried lowering the gamma as suggested by ApeofTheYear, and that seemed to help. I'm going to try dropping it further to 0.6, but I have it on 0.8 right now. One of Bismarck's videos also highlighted that flying above 5000m makes it hard to see contacts on the deck. I can sometimes see distant contacts now, but apparently there's a 10km limit to spotting in the game.

Thanks for all your efforts making these videos, Sheriff! Do you have any recommendations on initial head position when using a TrackIR?

+prowokator it is good against Russians. But it looses performance quickly. But the Russians as well and even more quickly.

I've found that, just as it's described in reality, the fw190 is a far easier plane to fly than the bf109. Right from takeoff you can feel the difference - the 109 is neurotic, it's got crazy performance but requires a crazy level of management along with it. Fw190 was designed by a fighter pilot for fighter pilots, and it shows right from turning the engine on, plus unlike the 109 it's not going to take the first excuse to go into a spin.

The A-5 has red sticks, sticking out the wing if the landing gear is extended. At the length of the stick you can estimate if it is Extended completely.
