Realism, whats missing?

After watching your track and trying to replicate the same thing I couldn't snap roll the thing again lol. Only after you keep the stick back and rudder hard left/right it will snap roll in my experience.

Yup.. that's what it supposed to do...
The modelling not to great with DCS in this regard.
IL2 does lack the cross control effect modelling to a certain degree..(cross the controls a little and pull elevator to just under the stall, then whack the aileron full over) but it seems completely lacking in DCS.

But of course, I have no idea what I'm talking about.. then I discovered that video.. and it's plain as daylight for all to see. Maybe that 25 yr vet is also BS-ing.

As an interest.. maybe someone who has CLOD can try this out - I'd be curious about it.

A hammer that would smash you whenever you crash and a gun that would shoot you whenever you're hit. People would fly a lot differently then.

I don't think I would be getting involved in any combat situations then

I know I am resurrecting this thread after more than a year ago. But now after spending enough time with DCS, while definitely not perfect, I will say that they got many more things right than IL21946 due to complex FM. P-factor being the biggest difference between IL2 and DCS. Stuff in DCS isn't scripted, so you will not get exactly the same response every time.
