i.e. full speed ahead, cut power, no deceleration, turn 180 with your maneuvering thrusters an fly backwards. B5 style.

Yes the ships fly like an F35 in that they are fly by wire.
If you watch the 1hr video near the end in the Q&A he talks about sliding and doing tricks by disabling thrusters to take advantage of mass and inertia. So you can do everything your talking about and I would expect nothing less.

Im sure the newtonian physics wont be 100% just like in his previous games as that would make the ships too hard to fly even with fly by wire. Some compromises will have to be made to allow enjoyable game play.
