I am having problems landing sucessfully in FreeFalcon5 when using the 3d pit with 6DOF. I believe my problem is that the HUD cues I have learned to use in F4AF and OpenFalcon don't stay where they should be relative to the outside world when I move my head up or down (and I have trouble holding my head perfectly still on final).

Any tips, other than switching to 2d (or 1 view) on final?

Increase the center dead zone on all axis.
