Ability to configure controls (select six axis in ps3 for the head tilt control).
That would be cool.

Default Invert Commands on the PS3 Joystick

Hi,

Can you please also give us a option to switch controller sides, let me explain, I am a RC airplane pilot and we use the throtle and the rudder on the left hand and the elevator and the ailerons on the right hand, can you please insert this control option?

Thanks.....

Hi,

My reply is way too late and as I haven't read all the replies/suggestions for game developers this has been possibly already suggested, but here comes my shot anyway:

I would like to see Finnish front somehow represented on the game, either by having few planes included which Finnish Airforce was using during WWII or else to even expand Russian fighting scenes towards Finland where these to countries had their own David and Goliath -battle.

At least it would be fantastic to have an opportunity to afterwards download/purchase expansion packages for the game.

Thanks anyway for the coming game!
For long time I have been waiting for a proper PS3 WWII flying simulator since PS3 itself should be powerful enough for running games for this scene.
The few (unfortunately sadly small amount) previous PS3 WWII flight sims have been - so to speak - poor attempts...

Br,

Finnish pilot with only minor flying experience.

Cool Inproper spin recovery directions

I noticed in the demo that the recommended steps to take to get out of a spin are to use ailerons and pitch forwards. While it may work in this game, the correct way (taught in flight schools the world over) is to:
1: neutralise the ailerons and use full rudder opposite to the direction of spin
2: release back pressure (stop pulling up) and push forwards slightly
3: once spinning has stopped, level the wings with the horizon
4: pull up out of the resulting dive gently (so as not to stall the plane again)

Steps 1 and 2 take place immediatly and essentially at the same time.
DO NOT do step 3 and 4 at the same time as the resulting stress may break the plane. (Take a pop can and push the ends UP together and it'll hold. Twist the pop can and it will also hold. But push and twist the pop can and it will crumble. This is the same idea as with the plane.)

But don't take my word for it, find out for yourself and more by joining your local flight club!

up aileron on the side of the stalled wing would aid in recovery in addition to your steps above.

PLease! Please! mappable controls _ I have a logitech Force 3d pro which works great. Only I need to remap the fire buttons as the trigger is mapped to the x button on the ps3 pad - If I could fire guns with the trigger I would be a happy bunny
