If it only would have adjustable sensitivity (at least they are considering that, now...), I could say something about flight-modell and stuff. With a Saitek-HOTAS, you are fighting your input a lot more than the flightmodel itself.

I disagree with that Feurfalke, ( I have an X52 Pro setup myself) but this is how it was anyway by all accounts, big adjustment from the comparitively "fly by wire" IL-2 birds lol and you can't relax much at all. Throttle/RPM adjustment is key, its very difficult at first but its as Thunderbolt says, its the way it was. Wind and turbulence are also big factors, you will find yourself crabbing due to a strong gust alone, these things were lightweight. You go full throttle, and unless you "Trim" your stick with some rope you will end up with a sore arm (I was one of the first in Europe to get it retail) Adjustable sensitivity would be great for those who want it, but not flying at full throttle all the time and getting mix and radiator settings right works wonders too, especially in dives. Personally, I feel the FMs are hands down the best thing about it by a country mile, a lot of others feel that way too.

Agree that its fun, but yes at present 4 hours tells you pretty much the whole story so far. GUI and Map interface improvements are pending.....and maybe more in next patch. Like you say, the key word is potential and lets hope it fulfills it. Something to amuse myself with until "Storm Of Waiting" shows up anyway I'm enjoying it despite its flaws, particularly the Albatros which is my fave ride by far, and looks great (Fokker too twitchy for my liking ).

Roll on September, hope theres something worth seeing from 1c.
