Who would have thought to use a rear truck axle for a FPS weapon?

Finished watching. Fun! Not too shabby a performance! :)

Watching some scout footage makes me want to play some Hawken again, but then I saw all that air dodge bs.

I'm not sure if it is youtube or your settings, but the video seems jumpy(low frames).

Still waiting for CTF.

Heat Cannon is for mid range burst/corner poking with potential for mildly reliable sustained damage if needed.

Flak is good for close range burst/corner poking with no sustained damage potential.

Mini Flak is good for close range sustained damage with mildly reliable close range burst/corner poking damage potential.

So would it be safe to assume the flak does more damage per shot than the mini flak?

I find my aim is terrible with the mini flak, so much to the point where holding the trigger down is useless and basically renders the high DPS pointless as well.

yep is mostly correct, though some elaboration: Miniflak has the highest dps in the game, though you have to engage fairly close. it does indeed do a significant amount less damage per shot than the flak cannon. Some advice, don't use it as a full-auto weapon. It has a high heat gen, and few people can hit every shot at that speed. Use it the same way one uses the flak cannon. One click, one shot. Just line them up and you'll be able to shoot pretty quickly, maximizing your dps and minimizing your heat.

Miniflak works well in a lot of lower tiered games, where one can rely on the scout's speed to engage in the open with little risk of damage.

Flak works well in mid to high tier games where engaging at close range still works as a scout, but some cover is necessary, yet the level of prediction that your opponent has is still too low to be effective against good corner play.

Heat cannon works best at high tier games where the scout due to its speed and lack of armor is mostly relegated to poking and taking out fleeing/low health enemies. The range helps take them down as they run and the splash helps damage them before you see them, making the most of its limited armor.

I only have success with my miniflak loadout when I play the scout with a very skittish mindset. I need to walk almost anytime I'm not in combat to make it work for me. you want to flank around slightly, enough so that if you need to flee you can still escape towards your team without going past enemies. The weapon is one of the quieter to hit you and hell, even when I know I'm being shot by a miniflak it's hard to  get that sense of urgency from suck a light ping sound on your hull. I dunno, I play it with a assistive mindset and that's gotten me pretty far. It's great for those disgustingly good damage ratios like 8.5 in this case

The use of mini flak seems to drop off as players get more experienced with the Scout. If you can improve your movement and get used to the peek a boo gameplay style, you'll find that the Flak Cannon and Heat Cannon are better than the Mini Flak on the Scout (for the reasons ticklemyiguana mentioned).

It's all about the armor and your abilities ability to hit you.
The weapons are based around your skillset needing the least cover as scout to needing the most cover, from basic to prestige weapon.
