Excessive anything is bad. But when someone who actually flew the Harrier, you know like professionally, says that the controls as they are out of the box are excessively sensitive, I tend to believe him.

 

I just don't understand the straw-man attack on his statement, as if there were no middle-ground between adjusting nothing and excessively adjusting curves.

Real Harrier stick is about 50cm from the pivot to the trigger, most popular joysticks are about 20cm. It's a huge difference in range of motion thus accuracy. The stiff spring in most joysticks additionally reduces precision of movements near the center. Just saying.

Orso' date=' I find it amazing that you consider my post a "strawman" or an "attack", grow up.[/quote']

 

What is this, please?:

 

Excessive curves are a bad idea' date=' you end up with a whole lot of no response, and then a whole lot of loads of response in the extremes of the axis.[/quote']

 

Where in the video was any discussion of "excessive curves"? I would gladly listen to your evidence for someone propagating the use of "excessive curves". Please enlighten me.
