I thought Hi-Res or those resolution choices in the video setup had to do with the resolution of what you see inside your cockpit. If you are running the game at the default FoV, try upping it to say 106 and see if your wings look better. AH is supposed to be about what you are going piu, piu, piu at through your gunsight that you have just spent some white knuckle moments getting on that con's 6 to score a kill. The physics of this game are quite awesome for that experience.
