    As long as the weapons that face to the front are same...
    Otto pisses me off anyway. I use it to tell me if someone is coming at a blind spot, it is nice to have some eyes in the back of my head. As far as relying on otto to save my ass, to get kills for me, I couldn't give a shit about that. Otto is rigged for "game balance." Otto doesn't refelct reality. The OBSERVATION of my perimeter DOES reflect reality. I would hate like hell to have to jerk a B17 all over the place, doing those stupid rolls with heavy rudder like the stupid cockpit graphics make me do, so I can see clear to my six. I hate doing that ina fighter even.
    Having a piece of my windscreen OBSTRUCT my vision pisses me off to no end. Many times I wish the FRONT facing frames in a cockpit could be opaque, or see through, seeing as a pilot could ACTUALLY move his head 1 or two inches AND he had TWO eyes, with binocular vision and BOTH placed on different parts of his head.
    Anyway, try using otto as EYES instead of WEAPONS and the changed guns won't be as much of a problem.

    That's because earlier both Me410s ottos could shoot at the target at the same time. Otto move range has been limited, so ideally at six with few degrees there is dead zone and otto can't reach it now. Earlier two guns could fire at once and easily kill con.

    agree with biles on cockpit thing.
    If not the windscreen things, then staring at your seat when checking six is totally stupid.

    Yeah, yawing a plane is the thing to do, but won't that make the otto get vertigo and all of yer gunners gonna use their barf bags?
    It sure makes the tailgunner in an IL-2 get angry when the stock of his MGs slaps him in the face. I seen it with my own eyes once, the otto was so angry he stayed drunk for a week

    If you were a gunner wouldnt you be drunk every week? God knows I wouldnt want to be in safe state of mind when your arnt the pilot, just an unlucky bastard stuck firing a mg at a fighter who just wants to see you in flames or your wing to come off.

    i like wabbaling my wings when in buff. it gives me slight movemnt without upsetting ottos with gs and makes the esayist part of my buff to destroy ( wings ofcorse ) harder to get alot of hits in. hopfully giving my ottos more time and my attacker some dificulty in flaming me.

    One time I am flyin and I see this big fuckin' buff. I get up the nerve, climb to his flank and come in for a slashing pass. Well, the fuckin' guy had his b17 flying SIDEWAYS!
    So, it was YOU! Okay, I am gonna hunt you now!

    :p

    Redwhiners can't stand when someone found errors in axis planes. Erros that decrease the planes survailence. Good sources are available to show it. No matter if the stuff is old or new.
    I forgot..... Only allies are able to get uber defences or rewhiners will come hard
