The thing is that the jump from realistic to arcade is quite substantial as the flight models act completely different, and as weird as it sounds the longer you play arcade for the harder it will be to get onto realistic. Just keep going at it, in fact here is a sneaky tip that I use in dogfights:

Instead of smoothly trying to hold the joystick at the correct pressure to get a maximum turn without stalling by banking to hard, snap the controller stick back and forth quickly, you can get intensely sharp turns using this method, just takes a bit of practice.
