P51- It's too mild for my liking.. you really have to be dumb to put it into a spin.
When you stall, centralising controls, it literally recovers by itself.. for a HP WW2 aircraft this doesn't seem right.There's a big margin of shaking before it finally stalls.. fluttering away like crazy. If you're gentle with it it flies like a dream and is fast. In DCS you really have to fly it fast to get the best out of it.
The AI is impossible, but I hear it uses the same FM as the user ... and it doesn't make unforced errors. . It's a real challenge to even get near it - you learn fast.

Maybe my stick setup is not right (I'm not sure where to set it up yet).
Still working on it.
