Anyone else notice how the aircraft like to nose up constantly at higher speeds? Makes aiming and shooting a real pain in the arse when in pursuit. Really annoying.

Also cant get it to use my throttle in-game. I set it in the controls config and it detected it, but not in-game. ?? I use an X-45.

Unfortunately very realistic as well. Most planes in WWI didn't have trim. It's something we hope they'll implement in the near future as an option for planes that didn't historically have it.

I don't know what sim you are using, however, in real aircraft as airspeed increases lift increases, causing the aircraft to pitch up. If the sim replicates this phenomenon then you will have to gradually increase forward pressure (or trim forward) on the controls to maintain a given angle of descent. Can't help you with the throttle problem, sorry.

This is not a bug, but as designed.

Generally, these aircraft were "level-trimmed" at cruise speed. Slower will give you nose-down tendancies, high throttle will give nose-up.
