Campaign missions are flown on weekends to maximize the timings with our global membership. Training and ad hoc flying happens throughout the week. And for the realism, short answer is we keep the stuff that matters -- how to be effective in the airframe, how to coordinate and communicate with your fellow pilots -- and ditch everything else that doesn't.

Squadron Name: Global Task Force Overlord Positions Needed: Pilots for all aircraft in DCS, whatever you fly we have a squadron to support it. About us: Want to fly ANY airframe from the Cold War to Modern era? How about flying RedFor jets and joining multiple squadrons at the same time? At GTFO, our community is packed with expert pilots ready to teach, train, and fly with you. Whether you’re a seasoned ace or just starting out, there’s a spot for you in our ranks.

Would concur with the above. Machine seems fine but the RAM might be a bottleneck a bit. FWIW given what's needed for bindings in the Phantom, I think any of the options you've mentioned would be great fits. Really comes down to personal perference. (I went with a Virpil WarBRD stick for a more 1:1 on the stick at least.) And squadrons, depends on the group, some are even willing to help those fresh into the game get up and running.

Had a similar experience within the last couple weeks, also through B&H on my new throttle-only Warthog from them. Not a huge deal given the Delta's availability, but a mild annoyance.
