Click to expand... OK, but you have exactly two chances of ever seeing a Dolphin in OFF, slim, and none ( Long - Story ) Looking Back to Phase 1. The Albatross DII needed such upward pressure on the stick, just to fly straight. I gave up on the DII then and there. Along came Phase 2, I must be very lucky indeed, as I've Never experienced any problems with any aircraft Or perhaps it's because the FM was done with a Saitek Cyclone EVO FFB joystick. Same one I use ( Food for Thought)
