I been wondering about this since many planes (at least with me driving) require the sensitvity turned way down (Spit, FW) while others work best with them cranked up to max (109-G, LA-7). How do y'all work it?

Based on my own experience and what others have said I always use these settings:

ailerons: always full on every plane. Rolling is part of turning, the faster the better.

elevators:

la5: full
la7: 2 notches below max
yaks: 3 1/2 below max
109e/f: 4 below max
heavier 109's: 5 or 6 below max
spitfires: 6 below max
sturmoviks: 5 below max
fw190: 5 or 6 below
hurricane: don't know, about 6 I guess
