So many are using mouse ? no wonder we have so many crashing helicopters all the time =P Im using only keyboard, it's controls are sharpest and most accurate =)

when using mouse or joystick you react with your entire hand and therefore your reactions arent so accurate, while with keyboard you only react with fingers, and those are alot faster than the hand, alot sharper and more accurate =)

lol deer why do you think they put flight sticks in choppers/jets or even steering wheels in cars and not a keyboard? You have much grater control with a joystick (or even a mouse but not so much) than you do with a keyboard since you can put very fine adjustments rather than pushing the button for a tiny bit of time to get it which a m/s too long on the "tap" and your off where on a chopper you can move slowly into a turn etc which helps a huge amount with control, and there is also no reason why you can't do a sharp quick reaction turn with a stick I do it all the time.

I use a mixture of mouse and joystick. joystick for big sweeping movements, and if I want to get it to that exact hovering spot, I use a low DPI setting on my mouse and inch it to that sweet spot of hovering if I need to. But mostly its joystick all the way.
