How does sensitivity work?

[Rufus_the_Rat]

I would be interested in this also after hearing people say I won't be able to turn as well with the lower sensitivity I need to fly.

Yea its the total sensitivity, if you put it down it atleast puts the maximum lower.
So if you put it down a bit its safer to pull on the stick hard, but cant get the max out of the turns.

Even at high speeds, there is a certain amount of stick movement that will cause a stall, so retuning the sensitivity to the point where you cannot use this section of stick travel is not a loss.

It is very ineteresting to play in virtual cockpit view.
You can see 'stall lines' in it. They shows also that most times you don't need even 1\2 of full range. And much more about planes behaviour and handling
