For the Saitek I adjust Elevators only and leave Ailerons at Max. Theres a 'sticky' that gives suggested sensitivity for most aircraft. Hope to catch you on line FOZ as I'm back home..........

Should have chosen the Yak-3 or La-5FN. Not some obsolete British monoplane (crap) that would get chewed up by any plane. lol

Hey FOZ, you may also consider the few hard-core pilots that are still around have a lot of flight time in and have perfected their turning skills – I have noticed there are very few “easy” dog-fights anymore!...

Oh…as stated also try keeping Ailerons at max.

Forget about combat flaps on sim?

I did once in a 1v1. Got soundly spanked Spitfire vs. Spitfire and kicked myself after the match was over. Couldn't figure out why the bugger was on my tail after a turn and a half - thought it was because he spotted me first all the time.

Had brightness up and ailerons up, and elevators really low down

Feel like a bit of a dick right now. Had it sorted but fiddled with it this morning, changed the weong ones in my haste. Feel like a right twat.

Sorted now.


As for combat flaps...... yeah i remembered lol, though often i forget. Sometimes i simply choose not to use them also. Guess im different.

Unreal came up with a neat trick to quickly go back to your “favorite” settings: In Options set one of the other Bars that you care little for, (Music, Speech, Radio, etc) to where you normally set your elevators of your favorite plane. That way if you do change your elevators when you fly something other then the Hurricane, (God forbid!) you can go back into Options and visually see where your setting was and just match you elevators back to that setting – quick and easy...
