How do I control the plane with a keyboard?

[Evernow]

Hello there!

I just bought the game but unfortunately I cannot seem to control the plane properly with my keyboard, I need to be looking to the side to move the joystick in some planes which has led me to crash unfortunately, I know it's best to use a joystick but I can't afford one right now, how do I control it with WASD?

Thank you!

You need to assign the keys for alerion left/right; elevator up/down, and rudder left/right. Otherwise, move the mouse very slightly around the "+" on the screen (get the plus sign when you click on the space about the dashboard. It's not easy to control from the mouse.

Oof, I highly advise getting a joystick such as the Logitech Extreme 3D Pro. Much better experience and much much easier than using a keyboard

You can set up rudder, ailerone left / right etc in the controls setup

Otherwise I have no idea but good luck!

You can check your settings in the settings dialog which can be found in the top right (it's the icon with the sliders)

you can buy the "Pro Flight Yoke System" by Saitek... It's a little bit expensive... but its all the moneys worth! :D
