Hey WildBoar44,

First let me say that you won't be able to get the kind of control you can get in arcade and still keep the plane in the air on realistic. Flying in realistic requires a softer touch than what you might be used to in arcade and trust me it wasn't until I learned this, that I was able to start getting better in realistic.

Now having said that, I've found that the custom layout doesn't work that great in realistic (at least for me) and so anytime I fly realisitic, I use the Wireless Control layout at the far left of the layout options. Not sure why, but this layout is WAY better in realistic. Just don't forget to switch back over to custom when flying arcade again, lol! Good luck!

Hi RuffMunk..... long time no see Ace...

I have more hours and kills in Realistic than Arcade these days, mind you still love the pace and thrill of the Bun fight Arcade give's....

I fly Realistic in the Wireless Control option you menton.... Full setting on Spit / Hurri / Lav / Me109 / All Bombers .... even Fw190 when you get used to it.... only Boss P51 B/D and I153 and I16 Russian chainsaw do I back off the settings . Its possible to "catch" the stall on full settings in realistic when you know when... But do this in "Custom " layout and despite hours of testing settings....Throttle will "lag" intermitently...Rudder will lack / over respond with no consistant performance , drive's me chuffin Mad !! stall / spin /stall / spin / stall / spin .... Kerplunk ! ... Funny thing though... only plane that will fly much better on my Custom setting in Realistic... the Po2 lol !! ....Great for Capture the paperboy let alone the Airfield !


Ah well , Best stick to Wireless Control.... !
