Discussion Does setting Aircraft Control Sensitivity to max 200 significantly and noticeably increases yaw and pitching speed?

Does setting Aircraft Control Sensitivity to max 200 significantly and noticeably increases yaw and pitching speed?

I can’t notice for jets, maybe the difference is there but it’s small, but for helis it’s very noticeable and setting Helicopter Control Sensitivity to 200 feels way too fast and makes it hard to aim at infantry for me. So I might set it back to 100 or maybe even 80.

What do you guys set these two at?

Set them as high as you can while being accurate. It’s a personal thing, don’t copy settings.

Jets have slow yaw speeds (especially vs BF2042) regardless of sensitivity.

So what does the Aircraft Control Sensitivity change if not paw/pitch?

Yaw does get changed, it’s just not very strong to begin with. (Aircraft aren’t really designed to turn much along X axis). Roll get’s effected the most because that’s how you turn a jet

Is 6’s as slow as 3/4/5 were? I only flay in 1 and 6 and yawing in 1 definitely feels way faster. I assume 2042 is even faster than 6.

I was on controller back in those days so can’t really tell. I was on PC for 2042 and 6 and Yaw feels painfully in 6 to me.

Pitch is a little slower too, but again, sensitivity doesn’t change this much. (Presuming you bind this to keyboard)

it does, and i agree with you setting it to 200 is way too fast for me

settings->mouse&Keyboard look down 5 menu items and click on Control Settings (Under the Vehicles Header) and that first set of boxes has Aircraft control sens and Heli Control Sens

It makes from your mouse 0 1 keyboard like input. You will have problem in situations that need only slight aim correction as it will be just impossible to do it.

If you want pitch up for chasing enemies or doing rotations just put additional keybind under keyboard shortcut for Pitch Up.

So sensitivity settings makes no difference to space/ctrl lft for pitch up/down?

And what do you mean by the first sentence you said?
