The main thing is that you must never stop, I usually use forward thrusters to get some speed and then turn my ship 90° to my flight path and hit w. In patcom it works almost every time, in tug, it almost never works;).

You also stand a better chance against missiles in unassisted flight mode.

Two more things, both ways to squeeze extra acceleration out of the tug: 1. Hit x or y and z thrusters together; 2. Use the 'divert power to engines' TRI shortcut to boost all thrusters significantly -- just remember to rebalance afterwards when you want your guns and shields back!
