Hi, my name is Hale, and I have a problem....

When I set a Shrike on a collision course (for a flag grab or just to ram someone) and jump out, more often then not I end up getting run over by my own vehicle. I see others do this and it doesn't seem that hard, so I must be doing something wrong.

When I jump out, should I jet straight up? Or up and back, or something else?

Pointers are appreciated.

Also, is there any easy way to tell how close the bottom of your vehicle is to the ground? I notice that Shirkes are frequently used to ram people on the ground, but I either bounce off the ground or am too high.

Thanks!
