What head bounce?

Anyway:
All you had to do is drive your car in the track and look what happens (usually less than 1G)...

So no "head bounce" = no authentic head movements

Well.. that head bounce annoys when doing verrry small aileron adjustments.
Head bounces to side like you would have just begun quick roll instead of smooth one.
It doesn't really disturb anything else than aiming... aim gets messed so much even for very very small change.

Just like Fihsu I only really get annoyed about the headbounce when I am really zoomed in trying to make a long shot on a fleeing enemy. Just a small aileron correction throws you off.
In regular flying and gunnery I don't really notice it, as I usually are pulling too much lead to even use the sight  

BTW, maybe a little OT, but did anyone happen to see the newest video for IL-2? Now there is nice deflection sight.      
I'll give ya a hint. Headbounces, altho present, won't give me the same problem then
