Do you use 'invert mouse' for helis and jets?

[Unfocused]

Personally, it seemed quite strange to me when I first played, that pushing the mouse would make me go up and pulling it - down, as normally it works the other way around. I haven't bothered to change it however and now I am used to playing in this 'inverted' (though default for BF2) way. I just couldn't fly properly when I changed it yesterday.

How do you fly?

keyboard only ftw!
its quite intuitive when you get used to it although dogfighting can be a pain in the ass against a decent pilot

Do you cut off your hands before getting in the jet ? Of course not ! Default...

Just kidding.

idd

Esp. the helo's are easier to fly with WASD / arrows then with WASD / mouse imho.

Keyboard/Mouse combo ftw!

Mouse Up=Up
Mouse Down=Down
Mouse Left=Commie Mouse
Mouse Right=U-turn

For flying I invert. That way it's similar to a joystick. Otherwise I'd be pulling to pull up and crash into the ground. :x
I tried to leave it default at first but the only way I could fly successfully is if I consciously told myself to push forward or pull back each time I wanted to go up or down. Otherwise I'd crash because I'd instinctively fly as if it was inverted.

BTW: Is there any key that allows me to look behind me while in a plane/heli (vehicle actually)? I mean a key I would have to hold while I'm looking behind me. Tapping the 'c' key 3 times to look back and then twice for normal view is kinda uncomfortable :]

bind it or just press ctrl and look around with the mouse

You can look to your sides with ctrl, not backwards. And how am I supposed to bind it? I'll check again, but i thought there wasn't any "backview" option to bind.

Same here, and I almost never play (or have played) games where you fly, lol

Playing without inverted feels simply wrong. It's like finding your brother making love to the neighbours dog.

i'd sig it but the mods would get mad at me - 4 line limit

The default. I assume it's inverted. I use a joystick for the jets, but I just can't do that with the heli, so I go back to my mouse/keyboard setup. It seems to work pretty well with me. I'm a decent pilot besides my random evading of enemy AA missles and ramming my side into a building...

You guys that use the keyboard only, what do you use for primary/secondary fire? (as opposed to the left click/right click of the mouse)

I'd assume space/ctrl.?

 

[$kelet0r]

on my laptop i use space for bombing/missiles and 'v' or left click (which is just beneath spacebar) for machine gunning with my left thumb

 

[xcellerate]

WSAD+arrow keys are the shizzle

 

[Sainku]

WASD+Arrow keys.

I use space for primary and f for secondary.

 

[$kelet0r]

then what do you use to cycle between weapons?

 

[CR0M]

Is it possible to use a stick for planes n helis? I hate using mouse to fly and I can't find where to choose joystick...

but to answer the question, I ALWAYS have inverted Y axis - in every fps
