Here is a movie of a typical MA engagement and some basic ACM tactics to defeat a higher con. It's best to watch from multiple view points to understand the application. The moves are rather simple but timing is critical and the really good sticks may not fall for all of them. :)
In the beginning of the film Wixxer engages me from a higher alt standpoint. I have the superior plane which I'm gonna use against him however he has alot more alt to turn into energy and a better turning radius. My goal is to sucker him into burning off his E and then using the climb rate of the K4 I'm gonna shoot his ass down....
the first series of moves he dives on me from my high six. I use a split S to foil his gun solution. He pulls into a high yo yo to maintain his alt. He attempts another dive and I remerge with a chopped throttle luftberry to again foil his gun solution. He pulls into another yo yo. Through this series of manuvers I have pushed him down a bit however and begin to set up the coup de gras ...! After another split S manuver he Yo's yos again and then I prepare to employ a vertical move/trap. On his next dive attempt I Dive to gain plenty of E. As soon as I see his nose is down and He is fully involved I pull straight vertical almost a little into him......here he has no gun solution because he is pulling so many gs. Here is the trick after he passes below me I roll the plane over on its back and deploy full flaps to hang there. Wixxer blows all his E trying to re engage giving me a gun solution. The pirrouette move allows the plane being attacked to pull his nose on the ea while the ea is still trying to reallign to the victim......hope this helps some of you in a sticky situation......
the film is below......any comments or a better anaylisis of this film is welcome
