That depends on a lot of things, or what if's:
- is it requested/transmitted when in range of view
- is it requested/transmitted when inside FoV
- is there a toggle to deactivate
- is it transmitted in 6 degree increments, within a hemisphere motion giving 900 positions.
- is it transmitted when the view changed

But for a single aircraft, it is only 2 extra axes, besides the 6 (aileron, elevator, rudder, flaps, gear, radiator) already inside the network packet. But the packet should also have details for bombers and other new options, so bomb-bay doors and cockpit canopy/hood position/angle should be in there as well.

But IL2 worked well on modems, so it is reasonable to expect the extra data to work on the doubling of bandwidth when compared to a 56k modem.

I guess we can be happy the eyeballs don't move, or that would be 2 more axes of rotation.

Thx for the answer.

Does the required upload of a player vary when the server gets more and more players?

I hope I didn't give you the impression I actually knew how the game developers have solved the way everything is transmitted. I'm just using logic. But no, your upload shouldn't change, if there are more players on a server.
