One small thing I wish we could to was to map "adjust sight distance" or whatever one adjusts the wingspan to an axis like joystick twist, so that you don't have to keep pressing keys. But I think the fixed sight is probably just as effective anyways.

I setup the sight once and I only adjust between 109 and 190 actually. Why are you fiddling with the settings?

I increase the range slightly... select the plane (tap of a key on my HOTAS) and then I bracket the guy and really let loose. I still use my own "in my head" calculations as well so I'm not totally reliant on the gyro but I find it's helpful in confirming my angles.

Spinning 190s are a problem for any plane... except maybe something with a thousand MK108s
