It wasn't the Joystick, neither the Trim, AOA or airspeed. The plane flapping was due to the control scheme: You have to map the joystick axis to the 'Elevator Axis' input. The 'Elevator Down' is a binary input (as opposed to analog). It's meant for keyboard and buttons and will continue to increase the elevator's deflection for as long as it's held. So if you map one side of the joystick Y axis to that, the moment the joystick goes to that side (even a little bit) you'll be holding the 'Elevator Down' "key" and the elevator will deflect completely. It's a little different from arma where you can map each side of an analog axis independently.

Drewski: "Something's wrong with this joystick."

AOA and Airspeed: *Am I a joke to you*

FS2020 has just been blowing my mind. I learned how to fly on FSX. And this is so similar, but such an Upgrade. I've been most impressed.

If you ever head to Limnos, you should check a restaurant called To Kyma near the port of Moudros (Pyrgos).
I had the most kickass spaghetti there and they have a parrot!

[davidel]

In order to recreate Limnos, the ARMA 3 team went so far that 2 of their members were being arrested by the Greek authorities in charges of Espionage.

This really goes to show how much arma 3 would benefit from a lighting and colour overhaul.

If you went ~30Km south of Lemnos, you'd reach Stratis (Agios Efstratios irl)

[yoinkerman]

Surely, somewhere on this map, there has to be some sort of easter egg.

[colestonebraker]

You literally flew over my old neighborhood when flying in to Austin. Thats crazy lol.

[gusciousi]

I am there every summer. Worked there last summer too, Limnos is a beautiful place.

[soejrd]

You can enable developer mode and teleport around, very useful for showing stuffs

I've been having a blast playing it. The bush trips are also a lot of fun.

[iancastro]

Alaska is way bigger than Texas but you guy's aren't ready for that conversation.

Everyone: "What?"

I was recently on a train from wolfsburg to prague. I remmeber just looking out my window and syaing "wait a minute this is chernarus!". Was so trippy, then the train stoped in cherno and it was like i was here thousands of times beforem

For anyone wondering: Altis is so gray and brown because bohemia is trying to emphasize that the lawlessness and political issues in Altis, along with global warming(remember altis is 2030s), is kind of screwing up lot's of the farmland's greenery, otherwise, consider it just for the simplicity of the player.
Edit: It also explains why AAF uniform/pattern is sooo green that it could belong it Tanoa, they used the real equivalent of the LAF uniform into consideration, without consideration of the possibility that it would change as the climate caused the foliage to change color, which is also why NATO seems to have the best uniform in Altis/Stratis, they're adapted and have the option to use a different uniform.

Imagine going to Limnos, getting to a village and see the place where you commited a war crime 2 days ago in Arma.

+Oh boi that was fun haha.
-*The villager that was passing by*: Excuse me w h a t.

Me as a Norwegian watching The beginning:

Me as a Norwegian when he says he is flying in Norway: 😱

Its not procedural its a process called photogrammetry and it makes procedural look like ancient technology. We use it in drone mapping and land survey and it is a real 3d representation of 2d sat photos meaning you are looking at the actual buildings that are actually there in real life. (for the most part anyways)

Microsoft: Import bing map data into game
Bohemia: Scans whole island, get locked up in jail, models whole island in 3D
Drewski: Orange roof. Good job microsoft
Also Bohemia: Am I a joke to you?
