Dudes, (and dudettes),
I've been wraking my brains trying to work out what it is that I do different with my joystick to stop the "nose bounce" some people are experiencing while making changes in pitch or yaw.
This is my stick.cfg file from AH.

0.07,0.17,0.28,0.37,0.50,0.56,0.68,0.75,0.87,1.00

I use a Micro$oft Sidewinder 3d Pro, (the twisty stick). I use the twisty for the rudder and the hat for views.
I knock off a few % for the pitch and yaw values because I'm a fairly light hand on the stick, (I rarely push the stick to it's limits of travel). If you're having a lot of problems with the yaw or nose bounce I'd suggest starting with a smaller value than I do and use a smaller increment, (ie start at 0.05 and increase in .05 increments).
I suggested to another pilot tonight that they change their settings to be more of a curve, (very low on the left sliders and higher on the right). While it hasn't eliminated all of the nose bounce it made the plane much easier for them to fly.
