In Falcon 4.0 :tomato: there was an option to switch to less sensitive controls for refueling. It was activated at the moment of fuel valve cover opening. I don't know if the real 16 has something like that.

 

AFAIK it's a feature of the F-16 Flicht Control Computer. It provides a more smooth control while refueling or when gears are down for landing

The F-16 responds to pressure on an almost non moving stick. The pressure sensitivity adjusts the pressure response. So I guess they have formation flying low sensitivity and dog fighting high sensitivity. I think the same thing is in the Saitek X-65 with preset sensitivities.

 

I'm going to try these axis curves tonight as I can connect to the refueling tanker but the controls are either far too sensitive to keep contact or I'm doing it wrong. I use the X-52 and have the Thrustmaster Warthog on order. Hopefully getting the curves right will do it for me.

 

I love this game.

BTW I settled on a curvature of 30. Can now link up and hold for refueling reasonably well whereas before I kept oscillating with small adjustments.
