Fly + Double Jump

[Klinsk]

I watched some videos on Youtube and still have no idea how to fly, I even practiced in tutorial. I use keyboard, so I jump (rightmouse), hold boost (leftmouse), but when I want to move midair my car spins out of control.

Also sometimes when I want to doublejump, at the second jump my car "stalls" midair and does a barrelroll. What's up with that?

get a controller and play on servers closer to you

If you're holding any direction when you use your second jump it does a Flip/Roll instantly in that direction.

Doing Aerials on Keyboard/Mouse is harder to explain as well. It requires slightly tapping more than anything.

The only way I can explain how to do an aerial on KB/M is to Jump, tap the S key once or twice so your car is aiming upwards then start boosting. To change your direction would require pressing A and D slightly along with W/S to adjust the pitch of your car.

I don't play KB/M because the game isn't designed around using it. So someone with more experience would need to explain it.

Thanks for the help, it works.

I use KB+M, I struggled at first with flying, but with time I got the hang of it, I started around 40 hours played (about the time I got to Veteran and at Prospect Elite/Challenger 1 ranks), and by the time Season 3 started (100 hours played), I could pull most Aerials off, hit it at least 50% of the time, make grate saves, score some goals, etc... My advice, use the game tutorial on Aerial, it helped me a lot, don't bother trying to get 10/10, just retry the same shot untill you hit it, and then move on to the next when you can hit it most of the time (or every time, or even when you can score those shots). By the time you get to the All-Star difficulty, you can hit most aerials. I still ain't a bloody aerial god, but I can hold my own on Challenger Elite against pre-made teams, usually they have at least one that can hit almost every single aerial, no matter how hard they are. The technique to pull aerials is like Volodesi said, slightly tapping, don't hold on to the keys, or you'll be barrel rolling or flipping like an idiot. When you get the hang of it, it'll will be second nature.

Thanks SLB4ever :)

KB+M flying is a pain, basically a plane with too much sensitive control. The most I can do without failing is doing a straight-direction upward flying, sometimes I can do some movements around or cross-side flying softly, but it's kind of hard to use properly.

If you hold a key (WASD) and do double jumps, it's gonna do a barrel roll, 1 Jump and enough boost fuel, hold it (not too much, but little-by-little), you can actually fly, the controls are basically the controls of plane, W = dive ; S = Up. It takes a while to understand how to use it properly so it's normal if you can't yet.

If you do the double jump while mid air, you lose most of time control of it. Also It seems that you can't do a second jump if you're too long in the air.

Also, shift allows you to self-spin without any other input buttons, in which you can redirect yourself if needed (hard to manipulate at first for real on KB+M).
