How to make my A10 Less Wobbly for Aerial Refueling

[nathan3219]

It sounds weird, but my A10 feels kind of wobbly. Whenever I'm trying to aerial refuel, I swerve up and down and left and right like a drunk person! I'm really awful at keeping this plane steady, which I don't understand because I can aerial refuel the F-15C with ease, when that is a much more sensitive and agile plane! Why am I so bad at this in the Warthog? Anyone have any pointers?

Use trims and in axis assign menu is for each axis adjustable sensitivity of game output. That means you can curve the axis so the 10% of real joystick deflection will cause only e.g. 3% deflection in game. But once you get over 50% then it is uspide-down. e.g. 80% of real joystick deflection will cause e.g. 98% deflection in game. This setting is good when your hand or joystick is not enough accurate to make very small and accurate input.

Drag! Don't ever try to learn with a clean and empty A-10C. Put a lot a normal mission load out under it and about 20-40% fuel. Don't try with filled (or filling) the wing tanks at the start, flight behaviour changes.

If you are having trouble holding a certain airspeed you can also deploy the speedbrakes a bit. Makes it easier to control the throttle range with cheaper hardware.

Make sure you have a trimmed aircraft at the speed you are flying, so when you let go of the controls it stays on its flight path.

Thanks everyone for the replies!!! Using your guys' advice I was able to set curves to about 16% and I also put on a normal CAS load on the plane, and it made learning to aerial refuel much easier, I'm doing it now without any problems! Thanks all!
