If you're gentle with it it flies like a dream and is fast. In DCS you really have to fly it fast to get the best out of it.
The AI is impossible, but I hear it uses the same FM as the user ... and it doesn't make unforced errors. . It's a real challenge to even get near it - you learn fast.

Maybe my stick setup is not right (I'm not sure where to set it up yet).
Still working on it.
Man, it sounds like my plane. Too bad DCS p-51 is just a one-plane show. If it had been something with a decent campagin with other non-flyable WWII planes, I would not have hesitated to buy it. I really wish they set up a differnt world (call it DCS WWII world or something) for WWII planes instead of stuffing it in modern era.
