About mouse controling tips

[LeechLettuce]

I started gta SA in mobile version and highly got used to mobile controls (free aim and all vehicle controls). Recently I bought PC version of SA, expecting easier controls than mobile version which I already have enoughly practiced. And I used some cheat codes to play with Hunter and Hydra but neither turning on or off steer with mouse I got no idea how to handle them. As I tilted it, by either mouse or WASD, it didn't returned its balance and kept tilting more to hit the ground. Maybe physics works differently for aircraft. I hope some of you guys advise me about difference between PC and mobile, especially about aircraft controls. If you have played long enough the both versions of the game, will it better to turn steer eith mouse off while flying?

The aircraft physics in GTA:SA [PC version] is straight-forward.

For standard aero-planes, you'd need to gain a certain speed then press the the [up arrow key].

The aircraft will gain altitude after that.

The landing process will require the retraction of the landing gear the default keys are set on [sub mission]: which are '2' and Num +.

This applies to but is NOT limited to...

• Shamal
  
• Rustler
  
• Beagle
  
• Stunt Plane
  
• Dodo
  
• Crop-duster

For the Hydra

There are two modes...

• Hover mode - where the hydra functions as a helicopter
  
  
• Normal flying mode - where the hydra functions are a normal aircraft in the above list

[1] To enable hover the mode the default key is: Numpad 2

[2] To enable flying-mode the default key is: Numpad 8

[Note]: Either one of the following modes can be activated when the aircraft is stationary.

[Note 2]: Enabling flying-mode while stationary requires a 'take-off' so you'd need to gain speed and then lift-up.

For standard helicopters

To gain height, press and hold [W].

Once you've gained height, you can tilt forward to move forward, pressing the [Up arrow key] and hold down [W].

To tilt the heli to move backwards, you can press the [down arrow key] and hold down [W].

To stabilize the helicopter, you can press [Caps lock].

What this does is - that it causes the heli to be stop moving and be able to land while hovering.

The important thing to note is...

All of these settings can be customized and changed to fit your preferences.

Menu > Options > Controller Setup > Redefine Controls > Vehicle Controls.

There, you can modify them accordingly.

You can enable / disable flying with the mouse.

I suggest that you disable it.

I have already disabled mouse for cars and been managing to find suitable keys for me. Thanks a lot for comment. I'll try what you said about airceafts too.
