Plane control options - console

Mess Room
1

I have seen a load of videos of good pilots, most on KB/M, but I wanted to try and change my flying style, so have now moved off Mouse Pointer aim, as it seemed to lack maneuverability.

I added Elevator control options and rudder, ailerons and now need to decide which mode / control option is best on console.

My question is under General options, there are three options:

Mouse pointer: default ok to begin with, but seems lacking.

Screen Joystick: seems more responsive, one I am using, I can pull up from dives a lot easier.

Direct: very responsive, in fact too responsive and most the time I go into a flat spin on practice mode.

What is the best flight control mode on console, for dive-bombing in BFs

Constructive feedback welcome, please don’t shoot me down (haha)

Hmmm, no good pilots on, I really just need to know what options to set on game options, flight configs, I’m not a newbie, but now want a more advanced set of controls.

Direct seems very shaky and I keep spin stalling, c’mon lads / ladies someone reply.

Well it seems that Screen Joystick is best if you want to have a better flight, not sure about direct that seems too hard to control without spinning out.
