Reward: Red Bull Team Contract
Difficulty: Expert
Estimated Time: 5 minutes
This reward is for completing the course in the Red Bull Time Trial mission in under 2:20 minutes. It's your choice to fly the mission with or without arrows, you'll get the reward either way.
Before you start, it's best to turn down some of your graphics settings to ensure a smooth frame rate. The last thing you'll need is a little pause that throws you off course. If you're getting smooth frame rates already, don't worry about it. Next, make sure you read all of the mission briefing before starting. Pay attention to the map especially, and take note of the vertical requirements after gates 4 and 7 and the minimum 60 degree bank requirement through gate 5.
That's it. The only way to get better is to practice. Don't expect to make it through in just one try. Avoid hitting the pylons so you don't get any time penalties.You'll want to save after every few gates to give yourself a point to restart from in case you crash. The only 2 tips I can offer are: When you go vertical after gates 4 and 7, continue all the way up to do a loop but stop on the way back down the other side and flip yourself upright (half of a cuban 8). After gate 9, if you're running out of time you can bank hard left and go directly through gate 10 rather than circling around the long way (I know you'll be going the wrong direction but it saves a couple seconds).
If you complete the course in under 1:50 minutes, you'll get the Red Bull Course Record too.
