Thanks Rich, thats a great tip. I will try that.

I have noticed one really stupid control design flaw and oversight which does rather hamper my performance. Who was the nutbar that decided to put the freelook on the pitch and roll stick without any way to redesignate it. Even more dumb, if you use southpaw stick setting (aka Ace Combat, Birds of Prey, and pretty much every other flying game's default stick layout, so thats a large amount of people) you need two left thumbs!! one to press the d-pad down to shift the left stick to freelook and another to use the left stick.

So not only can you not look around while maneuvering (a key flying skill), but If you want to look around at all you have to contort your left hand or take your right hand off the right side of the pad and use your right thumb to press the d pad.

It pretty much makes the freelook useless. LOL and we thought BoP's press in stick shift to freelook was bad. Compared to BF3, BoP's freelook is a god send.
