Hi all new to forum. the best way to reduce the amount of time you spend stalling>spinning is to understand what causes a stall in the first place, rather than just turnng the sensitivity down.
stalling has less to do with speed and more to do with angle of attack (AoA) which is the angle that the wings are presented to the oncoming airflow.
the wing will always stall at the critical angle of attack regardless of airspeed no matter if flying straight and level/banking/climbing or descending, the only way to recover is decrease the AoA (move the controls centrally forward) any applied aileron/bank whist stalling will induce spin as the unstalled wing overtakes the stalled wing.
the reason its difficult to get used to in the game is there is no sensation of buffet/increased noise/drag increase that you get in a real aircraft that helps you notice the on set of the stall
also the kind of aerobatics these aircraft were able to perform is far removed from modern day aerobatic aircraft that you see at airshows/ red bull air race etc, watching a few videos of WWII aircraft in action would really help your understanding of what the aircfraft is capable of.... its not a fly by wire F/A-18!! trying to turn tightly at full power is not always the answer!!
hope that helps in some way, i fly a real aircraft as a hobby as well as spending too much time with a controller in my hand!!
