Heli pilot - Where should I aim for TV firing

[GbeTech]

Hey, I consider myself as a pretty good gunner, but I think i'm not that good at piloting.
The thing that I like the most at good heli pilots is that they know where to aim, so when on TV mode I just have to click once... and I hit.

So can someone take a SS that shows where's the spot which the gunner aim to with the TV missile (when pilot)

Thanks :)

There's one somewhere on the interweb, i forget where.

But i know that in the cobra, it's just slightly below the pilot's crosshair and in MEC chopper it's considerably lower than that.

I'll try to find the screenshot.

Re: Heli pilot - Where should I aim for TV firing

Well it helped me loads anyway.

I just finished watching the videos, got some pretty handy tips from there, i'm fairly good at flying now, but i notice your tactics are far superior to mine, i always get killed because of lack of awareness or just plain stupidity.

Hopefully i'll remember to be more cautious in future.

Speaking of which... I bought my Saitek Cyborg Force a few days ago, my jet skills are now much higher.
Although my KDR (while flying) is always above 1:1 (when not in a map where's J35vsJ10), but it takes a lot of time from kill to kill.
Most of the time is spent on looking for air / ground targets, but I miss most of the bombing runs, and it's kinda 50/50 at dogfights. So I don't get much points out of it.
Any suggestions how to engage faster? what's better for this purpose; a 16 ppl map or 32/64?
Any tips for using the "fly by" camera more effectively? (It's not fly by, isn't it? :laugh: you know, the beautiful one, it goes from backview to frontview, and newbs say "wow" when they see it in the first time)
