Could be used to look around the cockpit perhaps?

Cockpit viewing would be the best use for it IMHO. I think it doesn't work to well for flying.

Yes, I posted it as a dev suggestion.

I only tried it with the shitty game (BA), but why do you think it woludn't work?

Not accurate/presise enough?

Well I myself will use a stick.
One thing I do not like about it is I don't like to move my entire arm or body just to move the gamepad around, and this is a given because it is unnatural to just ben your wrists.

I tried it with BA and didn't like it, I feel like I had less control.

Good point... I guess it will be the Thrustmaster HOTAS X for me. I have played the PC version for about a year with a stick, and it kicks ass...

How do you look around the cockpit when using a stick?

On the 1946 Forgotten battles it's obviously with the mouse...

Do you guys connect a keyboard to the console? It may be a stupid question, but I'm curious.

Cheap bastardy 101, yes as a standard usb keyboard is cheaper than sony's "textpad" clip-on.
