Dog-fighting in the Mig-3

Hi,

I'm learning the Mig-3 and I have to say I'm having a tough time learning to fight in it.
It FEELS like it should be an amazing energy fighter, but I have a hard time fighting in that style due to the horrendous control lock up at higher speeds.It dives quite well but the lack of authority over ailerons and elevators makes it quite difficult to get the guns on target after a dive, or when chasing a fast moving target in general.
I tend to fly it at higher altitudes b/c that is where it excels, but I tend find myself wanting to dive on targets something like 2 km below me and losing control surfaces in the process. What fighting style does this aircraft do best in?

Please help.
Thanks!
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
