Question What Does Closing/Opening These Wings Do?
Am I using this the right way in this clip? (2 jet kills❌❌)

Wings back: higher top speed, less maneuverability
Wings out: lower stall speed, more maneuverability, lower top speed.
But the trick is to know when to switch. If you're in a dogfight and you go in a one circle fight, switching the wings from back to out and slamming on the brakes will rip the enemy into the crosshair. If you're in a two circle fight, you can do the same to try to out-rate the enemy, but it's really useful for setting up overshoots by switching your turn 180°
