Joystick setup tips

[Tempest123]

Just a note for people who may be new to Il2 or struggled like I did with overly sensitive controls, particularly elevators. The default joystick profile settings that range from 1 to 100 cause a very large ramp-up in control power, causing erratic flight. They should be linear, i.e 40 to 50 % power across the board only increasing to near 100 at the end, this make the control very even and much more like an actual aircraft, its made a whole bunch of difference to my ability to fly and shoot. I think there is a post over at the Ubi forum about this.
With these settings I find its much more predictable, for instance the P-51 feels like a whole new plane, i can push it near the edge of a stall in a tight turn and hold it, or pull aggressively and snap roll or stall, rudder pedals help a lot here too. Not like the old stall and shudder when it would just snap out from under you. Anyways thats my 2 cents, I see some players online who struggle with sensitivity control issues, esp. in big aircraft like the p-51, corsair and others, as they stall or spin in all turns.
