Well I have sat here thru all the upgrades and have yet to see this work even remotely like the real thing...maybe good for training your fingers but not one of them lands like a real model, and I have downloaded just about everthing in the larger scales in an effort to find something like a real 35%.
If I could get even half my money back I would be happy.
As a game maybe it halfway decent but with the system requirements, floatyness and now their servers are down I think I give up.
With 3.5 all the editing doesnt seem to do squat as far as nose heavy,rudderless garbage.
Written in frustration, companies get away with half finished software all the time these days!!! IT AINT RIGHT.
3.5 has some issues with the physics, given that it's a brand new release that is not to be unexpected.
However that is not the say that the planes don't fly realistically.
There are plenty of larger scale planes that fly perfectly in 3.0, but require some adjustments under 3.5.
I'd have patience. None of the other sims come as close to the real thing as 3.0 and hopefully so will 3.5.
With adjustments you CAN get the planes to fly much much better, but instead of trying to tweak the flight models, you are better off sticking to 3.0 until 3.5 gets patched. Tweaking the individual flight models is extremely time consuming and you don't start "getting it" until you've explored every parameter provided.
We (the user base, not the KE developement staff) are REALLY on their case about this, and they KNOW they must do something ASAP.
