RE: Don't buy RealFlight G3
Be sure to set the flight physics parameter to highest, if you haven't done so yet. Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Jim have a huge vested interest in Knife Edge now? General Manager? He knows (as does the whole development team) about the issues, and is working to update the software. I thought 3D was extremely hard in G3 until I set the flight physics to highest. It was still hard, but with practice its coming along much better now. It forces you to become better at it. After 3D'ing G3, other sims seem too easy now.
The snapping issue doesn't seem so bad now, because you instinctively fly-around it when it happens.
G3 is one of those sims that, the more you use it, the better you like it, if for no other reason, you become acclimated to the way it "flys".
