Yeah, I am still getting used to this game and I was wondering do you simply keep the laser sight on your target to hit it? I have been taking down gunships by complete luck as of late.
 
you fly the rocket behind the gunship then put hte laser sight on it and the gunship will not shoot the rpg down.

The rocket hits whatever you aim the laserdot at.
EDIT: unless something blocks the missiles path ofcourse.
 
At first i was wondering why the rocket hits me if i was hiding behind a wall :D

Haha, genious. How many times you do that before you realised?

I did but I always just shot straight ahead.

Now I feel stoooopid.

You could toggle the laser in HLDM and I think you could also toggle it in the SP game, so it was more than likely off by default.
 
The gunship shoots down your rockets. You have to circle the rocket around it and hit it from the side or behind to take it by surprise.
 
The best way to shoot those gunships down is to launch the rocket and do a corkscrew motion with your mouse and target the gunship as the rocket is about to impact. They rarely shoot it down then.
 
Thats almost a full proof way, some good advice.

Another way it to fire it at a 45 degree angle to one side of the gunship and when it is behind focus the laser on the gunship so it circles round and hits it from behind.
 
shoot it to the side and do loop de loops and then go behind it and then you can hit it
