What is the best position to put your joystick? Meaning center of the monitor, a little left or to the right? I wanna see what the aces high community thinks.

I'm fond of F16 style too, comfortable.  Stick just off armrest, throttle off other armrest, keyboard in lap.

I go center.. but im using a twisty, so it would be weird to have it off to the side since I fly with both hands on it. One on the stick other on the throttle.

I use a CH Fighterstick and throttle. Stick is in front, slightly right, throttle left. Peds are below center.

If anything, flying around at 35K AGL demonstrates a clear preference to being on top.    :)

In all seriousness, I was taught having the elbow rested and the stick in line with that (right or left, depending on dominant hand) is best.

For those of us playing this game for well over a decade, Aces High is more of a social club. The game just provides the framework. I keep logging in for the people and Pipz was the kind that you keep coming to meet again.

To the right side:
1. I need to keep my left hand on the keyboard because I use it for views.
2. When I eject, the stick does not hit my balls.
