Exclamation AV8R on Custom Layout for PS3

Let me start by saying that flying on "custom layout", for the most part is only applicable to arcade. I say this for the reason that on Realistic or Sim the amount of full elevator deflection is NOT ALTERED regardless of the settings...and only responds to the adjustments made on the "Elevator Nonlinearity" setting and not the "General" control settings...and what this does is, if you know how model remote control settings work is known as "exponential", It does not affect the full travel adjustment. To explain this briefly...even if you set the nonlinearity settings at full(all the way to the right)...what it does is limit the deflection of the elevator initially upon stick input, only up to a certain point(good for people with shaky hands)..then towards the end of full stick travel will allow for FULL elevator travel...NOT GOOD for this application...even worse, I might say...because again..you CANNOT limit the amount of elevator travel.

I am surprised that nobody has ever mentioned or even discussed this...specially the "stick" flyers. Is this only associated with the AV8R????...Comments please

Some simers may dissagree because some have competitions with unrestricted deflection...but for some reason, it just does not respond correctly in this mode... too much tendency to stall and spin regardless... as opposed to full deflection on "Aviator Mode"
