I really, REALLY hope that they are not going to use "magic flaps" again as a cop out for AI/autopilot performance like they did in IL2. That was one of the most irritating things about IL2, looking out and seeing a bunch of Spits lined up for take off with 1/2 flap extended - impossible!
Full up or Full down for the Spitfire, and never used in combat, there was no combat setting. They went from 0 to 89 degrees deflection, way too much drag to be useful in a fight.
While I'm at it, I hope they aren't going to (again) use that ridiculous "full rudder" method of turning the AI aircraft, looks bad in screen shots and a complete immersion killer for me when the AI does it.
