Default Letting go and trusting

Hi JBH,
I have come to the conclusion that in order to get my flying to the next level I will have to "Let go" and stop trying to think my way through each and every control input. Until now this has worked for me because I can think fast, and it's very easy on the planes I've always had difficulty letting my subconcious take over my hands or body motions so it will take some time. This means I will probably have some inexplicable "dumb thumb" crashes where hand/eye coordination failed, as opposed to explicable ones where judgement or equipment failed. I must say that RC Pilot is the best thing to happen to my flying. The price on this sim has dropped to $49.95 with the rc controller box included. It uses the same physics software as G2. I flew both of these sims last week and they feel the same, except G2 allows you to tweak the planes a lot.
I can get two torque rolls consistent now, and a max of five revs one time. I know in G2 I could make a "torque roller" just by upping engine torque % settings, but would that be realistic?
Thanks to everyone for their input so far, if you think of anything please just add it to the thread as I'm subscribed to it still.
