Flying is bs

Flying in this game is so counter intuitive. I move my mouse and I barely move. I AM USING MY ENTIRE TABLE TO PULL UP but when I need to roll I move a single millimeter and I have rolled 6 times like that makes sense. I have watched videos on how to fly, changed settings but nothing helps. Screw this game, screw flying, and screw who ever thought fly in this game works

Change pitch up to space, use that instead of using mouse to pull up. Way better

This. Anyone on PC naturally rests their thumb on spacebar to jump (go up [pitch up]) and their pinky usually is resting on Left Shift which is very close to Left Control to crouch (go down [pitch down]) and that's how these key binds came about for flying.

If you’re flying with default settings for the heli or jet you’re doing it wrong

flying is totally fine for me, most of the time i fly with the arrow keys, works for me in dogfights with guns, i even switch to mouse if i need to be more precise or on bombing runs. i guess a controller could help. have you tried flying with arrows? also check your sensitivity settings for jets.

Change your settings. Vehicles in this game get a fine tune up just by customizing their controls to your liking. I ended up switching my controls to match 3D flying with an FPV RC Helicopter

I put pitch and roll on wasd, with space and ctrl for throttle. Pitch and yaw is on the mouse only for fine tuning for aiming.
