Red outs and blackouts are now very quick to appear and go close to total red/black in sim mode when you start getting aggressive with the controls. Not managed a total redout or blackout but I've only been on for 5 mins or so..

I'm a little puzzled coz I use a HOTAS and I still can't look to my six... Am I doing something wrong or do I have to go into the custom layout?

The zoom feature seems to zoom in closer, most of the screen tearing seems to be fixed.

Not been online with it yet..

You can't with a pad either, can you? Probably cos there's a bloody great fuselage in the way...

You can look backwards with a pad (I think!)... You can see the headrest of the seat etc.. With the hat switch the furthest you can look back is either 3 or 9 o'clock or straight up. Which is the same as before the update... like I said, am I missing something? Or am I being thick..

Your not using the AV8R are you? You must be using the Thrust master.

Virtual cockpit is where you can't see the cockpit
Real cockpit is well... real.

If I remember correctly the button is different one is analog and the other is digital between the two. And they only thing they said they were going to fix is the brake on the flight sticks.

Can you explain a lil better on "slightly fixed"? does it handle around the bf109 G-6? Also did they fix both of the P-51 and FwWolf?

As sorry - yeah that is significantly more handicapped than a pad. I can't see a way around that without using an analogue control though...? Or is the hatswitch analogue?
