When entering a turn he quickly applied some trim up on the wheel and pulled on the stick making the Bf109 enter turn faster. Some aces flew with a plane trimmed nose up so they had to push the stick to keep level flight.

So I think the trim cheat is just a whine. Maybe the look should be taken to the speed of trimming, how fast you can apply it. This depends on the trim wheel and it's ratio how fast it can move the trim tab or the control surface. Some were slower, some faster. But IRL what I've seen the trim movement is subtle and not fast.
The trim cheat and bat turns were an issue in the early releases of IL2-Forgotten Battles. Mostly, just a way for Onliners to whine and complain when they got shot down.

Even today many onliners cannot believe it when a very competent online pilot hands them their head, several times. They explain their lack of skill with excuses...

Thanks TD for the updates... The new maps = very excellent

With this G update... I will see a lot of spit pilots complain when their wings will fly away after a 90 - 180 degree turn on a 3 meter radius, when they were so used to do that.

Quick question to the TD:

With the new AI, will the patch for team killing AI gunners make it into 4.10? I recall seeing a video which shows work on the AI gunners.

Found the video:

I love it. Love all these evolutions. The only thing that worries me that with the enormous amount of added features at the same time, the risk for a lot of bugs rises too, right?

But I'm no programmer.
