Merlin Pilot Lag

I just played a round of Basrah and decided to jump into a Merlin for a spin. I noticed however that as soon as I got into the pilot seat I started to get a lot of lag despite the fact that my computer was not working very hard. I believe this phenomenon has existed for some time and at one point affected Attack Choppers, specifically the Apache during Beta for 0.6.
The lag occurs only for the pilot and immediately dissipates when the player moves to another position within the helicopter or exits the vehicle completely.
I am just wondering if the DEV's are aware of the problem.

Intel Core 2 Duo E6300
4GB Corsair XMS2 RAM @ 800 mhz

Well crudge it does help if you dont land the damaged merlin just inside the "out of bounds area" ROFL.

Has the merlin not always been a paint in the arse?

With my computer, problem appears only with joystick plugged, no problem without. This bug is the only case causing me glitches.

that happens to me too but no everytime i use the merlin (only a few times btw), i noticed that only when there is a lot of ppl on the server, otherwise, if there is only a few players on the server i can fly without problem..But still devs should check the problem..thx

Yea sometimes it works fine other times you get in the Merlin and it lags so bad.
