Turns and "the ball"

[MaxGunz]

Whatever stick settings you use, don't grip the stick tight and never rest the weight of your hand/arm on the stick.

Practice out of combat holding the stick with thumb and one or two fingers. Get to know what flying with a light touch can do.

Knowing ain't half the battle if you don't PRACTICE. Practice flying first. Practice shooting second. Practice fighting until you change planes, then start over as flying all planes the same is how to be mediocre.
