Hello everybody!
I was a simulator player more than a year ago, but unfortunately my joystick went wrong and I left simulator mode compeletely.
So, I’ve bought a new controller, a Thrustmaster T16000 joystick with a H.O.T.A.S. throttle. I managed to set the necessary buttons and axis to fly, but I still have problems with it.
I tried this joystick on the Italian C.R 32 reserve biplane, and my problem with it, if I pull my hand of the joystick, the biplane starts to climb and turn left. I tried this with the Mig-15 and the Me 410 A1/U4. The Mig-15 still climbed, but slower than then C.R.32 and it didn’t turn. However, the Me 410 A1/U4 still climbed and turned left.
This is my main problem. I think if I release the joystick, the plane should fly in a straight line. I heard about the torque effect and I know it affects the planes’ turning, but I think in game is too much.
Is it fixable with control settings, or is it how it should work, or is there something problem with my joystick?
Please help, if you can!
Glad to meet a fellow Sim player. The issue you’re describing is quite common and fundamental. If it only happens with specific aircraft, it likely points to a problem with the Flight Dynamics Model , which can surface after removing mouse-aim assistance. This has been noticed on several other planes (the I-16, I-153). I believe this is one of those long-standing bugs in the game. My suggestion would be to officially report it as a bug, and in the meantime, maybe try flying other aircraft whose flight feel is more acceptable to you. Happy flying!

Thank you for your answer!
I’m sorry, for writing late, but I was busy with domesticities and doing the battle pass tasks in RB.
I have managed to improve the control of the planes with aircraft trimming, So the climbing, and turning is acceptable for me.
However, I have problems with the rudder. When I use it, the plane starts to wobble.
This is a normal phenomenon. The rudder causes your aircraft to yaw, and when you release the rudder, the airflow will push you back toward the normal attitude, but the aircraft’s motion has inertia. This causes your plane to wobble. If what you mean is that using the rudder makes aiming more difficult, you can try using the rudder more gently, or enable nonlinear in the corresponding axis settings (I set it to 1.4 during learning, which was very helpful).
