The options are incredible though. You can actually set the tension for each access on the stick. They included a LOT of hardware and spare parts as well. Different tension springs, replacement pads, the works.
So I decided to try DCS out again since I have good sticks now. Got the flight controls working on two aircraft but that's as far as I got. It is REALLY hard to fly most things. I downloaded a demo of the BF 109 K4 and my God it's unflyable. I was lucky to get off the ground alive and didn't bother trying to land it.
I did a bit better in the P51 Mustang. I almost lost it landing it though:
So then I had a go with the Su-25 that comes with the game. It's probably what I'll be flying for a while to get used to jets. It was easy enough to get off the ground and fly, but it's not the most maneuverable plane in the world.
Even on a slight turn you can hear the stall alarm come on.
But the game looks amazing and I haven't done anything with it yet. (Tweaked the graphics or anything. I just hit the built in "HIGH" setting and left it at that. Getting around 120 FPS on it.)
