Recommended slope adjustment for jets (B737, A320 e.g)

hi,

does anybody have recommended "realistic" slope suggestions for me? Iam using saitek hardwear.

Thank you

I suspect everyone just adjusts to their own taste. If the aircraft you fly are sophisticated add-on aircraft, like PMDG or Aerosoft, I'd leave all the main controls linear, i.e. FSUIPC's slope "0", because they should have already been dealt with correctly in the modelling. Just flatten it in the middle slightly if you find you overcontrol.

Thank you Peter, I thought exactly about those two publishers.... What is the difference between positive an negative slope?

You can see from the picture of the slopes on screen. One way flattens the centre, making the controls less response near the centre, and sharpens the slopes to the extremes to compensate, so suiting folks who tend to over-control. The other makes the centre steeper, for faster response, and flattens the extremes to compensate. That way more suits fighter jets and stunt planes where you need rapid aircraft response.
