How do you guys control jets/helicopters?

[Raziaar]

I can fly helicopters perfectly and not crash...I can even line up targets with ease. My problem is hitting anything with those damned rockets, they dont go straight for the target you are aiming at...they go horizontal and all awkward and they have such a small blast radius it is next to impossible to hit anything.

Its all about saturation. They tend to fire up above the crosshairs when you are moving forward on an attack run... so aim down a bit more, and make sure your target is above the crosshair on your screen a bit... then saturate the target with rockets. If need be, use em all... and let them reload for your next run. WHen you're all out, its just a short trip back to the carrier to rearm.

I am so use to nailing tanks in DC with 2 rockets and watching them blow up, this is so much different and don't even know what to do. I just think it is that the helicopters suck, the MEC one is amazing but the Cobra lacks a decent gunner weapon.

I had tried that but it stayed as it was. I'll try it again though.

A common mistake is that after you check the box, you forget to hit apply. Also you have to invert each category(such as if you invert the copter controls, airplanes won't be inverted).

my mouse is inverted at all times, in all vehicles, in all games, and on foot.
