ASA's IP Trainer does not do it. Elite doesn't do it. PFC yokes do feel pretty
reak-world, though, unlike the cheapies.

I have had some time in a Frasca and in it, too, pitch control was a PITA. I've
been told that pretty much all simulators are bad at this.


Yes.
I've logged time in the old WW2-era, vacuum-driven Link Trainers.
They were easy to hate, too, for the same reason.
