When facing droid fighters get straight behind them when they are going straight, and fire while rolling, ie a talon roll. I tried it last night and it worked good at long range.

Rolling, according to Qui-Gon, can evade the Federation's pulsar tracking devices.
Are you talking about coming from behind them or "head-on"?
