Hmm, ok so I did some additional testing and I must admit that the full fuel load idea didn't occur to me. In FB I never fly with more than 50% fuel in the P-51.
Anyway, I've just been playing in sim mode a lot more and I realised what I was doing with trim - the tutorial is misleading because it made me think that simply tapping 'trim' would trim the plane. Now I know that you have to move the sticks too (nice idea), it's easy...very easy.
Subsequently, I've found flying the P-51 easy now, and now I know that you can trim it the way you want to, I'm finding it just fine to fly. All you need to do is stay fast, trim frequently and not be too forceful on the stick.
I'm still using the 360 pad and I think I'll stay with it for a little while. I can't afford an AV8R right now.
I haven't stalled/spun the P-51 ever since I realised that trim was implemented the way it is, as opposed to the simple 'one button press fixes all' job I thought it was.
