[Resolved] Multicrew controls have a noticeable 300-500ms lag. Makes it very hard to fly from the backseat.

[Vähäkylä]

I certainly like the new blended multicrew controls without a cumbersome "take control"-feature. However, when I do grab the stick and start flying as a WSO, the jet is sluggish. Everything just seems to be with a significant delay in the backseat. The stick in front of me in VR moves way slower than my real stick, and thus fine movements are almost impossible. 

Can we expect some changes to this, or perhaps a choice between old control handoff, and the blended multicrew?

Thank you, this is known to us.
It is because, right now, the flight model remains being computed on the Pilots computer. That means, your WSO inouts are first send to the Pilot, then computed there and you then get the results send back to your machine as usual.

In the future, we plan on dynamically transferring the flight model over to the machine that is currently controlling the jet But this is quite complex on a technical side :)

Cool! Thank you! That is exciting news!

Is there any movement on this, or is it still being worked on?
