Do you like the "mouse for flying..." in MS FLIGHT?

Another nice thing I forgot to mention about mouse flight is that you can play Flight remotely on a tablet and fly around with your finger. A nice feature for casual, fun flyers, probably not so much for the serious sim crowd.

Played with the mouse a lot last night, in nasty weather.

 

It's great and all, but I think it really is a bit like autopilot-lite..it makes it so easy to control the plane in rough air that I think it takes a bit of the fun away..I'm not knocking its inclusion, at all..I think it's great for all of the reasons stated above

 

Just find myself using it a bit too much...may as well have a yaw-damper/alt hold AP :smile:

The mouse is essential for me, seeing how Flight has a home on my laptop, I use it when I travel and stuck in a hotel, it a good aviation fix. :)

 

 

I have never been able to loop the plane with the mouse. Might just be me.

Use the down arrow key...

I only like the mouse for flying when it is my last resort.
